Re: Around the League Week 4
 

The Vikings for sure are not what I thought they were this year. It might be too soon to predict their record, but i am going to go out on a limb and say that they don't make the playoffs this year. Kirk will have a great season statistically, but the games that they will lose will be dogfights because i think something is going on with their defense now. Sort of like here last season, Cousins can lead them to a win if the offense can score over 35 points. But there will be those games they lose like 38-35, etc....

So much for TNF being a bad product. THAT was a good game!

[quote=htownskinfan;1201389]The situation with Cousins was handled poorly by both sides.The thing that bothered me about Cousins was seeing {I think it was NFL films production}where it was inside look and Cousins was talking about how he was so disappointed the day after the Smith trade because he wanted to stay with the skins,I call major major bullshit on that.And I don't blame him for wanting out,just dont believe the bullshit.[/quote]

I believe he would have stayed if the Skins stepped up to the plate with a legit contract offer. Instead they dicked around with a [URL="https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/bruce-allen-redskins-offered-kirk-cousins-53-million-but-he-prefers-franchise-tag/"]weak offer[/URL] that everyone knew was a joke.

Cousins knew if he hit free agency he would maximize his value and guess what? He did. Hats off to him he played the business side perfectly.

Agree. On the flip side, I applaud the way the Skins handled the business side. I would not have paid him $84M guaranteed over 3 years. And if you ask me whether I’d rather have Cousins at $28M per year, plus keep Fuller and the 3rd, or whether I’d rather have Smith at $23M without Fuller and the 3rd, I’d choose Smith.

The Redskins have finally been the one team in the NFL that has thought carefully about what the QB is worth. All others have blindly accepted the rising prices. A few of these QBs are worth it - Rodgers for sure. But Garoppolo? Cousins? Matt Ryan? I don’t believe they are. Their talent is strong, but not to the point where it could elevate a roster that’s by nature thinner because of the cap space devoted to the QB.

Sounds strange to say but the Skins are on the cutting edge in this regard.

Re: Around the League Week 4
 

They should have moved him the year before for multiple picks instead of the offering him the weak deal. If we were never gonna pay him market value or perceived market value, why not move him....because you wanted him one more year for 24 mil? That’s dumb as shit imo.

We’ve talked at length about this and the track record of Bruce managing the qb position is poor. If you were never serious bout a long term deal, you maximize his value with picks or players in return. You would have gotten at minimum a first round pick, but probably more.

I don’t mind Alex bout we could have had Sam darnold, Baker, etc.

I agree with this. At least we'll get a 3rd rounder next year though.

I was just about to post the same thing, they definitely should have traded him when the writing was on the wall.

Also, in 2016 Cousins wanted a [URL="https://247sports.com/nfl/washington-redskins/Bolt/Kirk-Cousins-Washington-Redskins-contract-offer-turned-down-last-offseason-51680792/"]3 year deal at $19M per but the team balked[/URL]. Another key mistake.

I feel good about Smith right now and given the circumstances the team did a great job at salvaging the situation, BUT, overall it was handled poorly highlighted by the two key mistakes above.

I tell you what, if the Redskins flop and they fire Gruden, I know who I would want as our next coach. Bill Lazor, he has that Bengals offense humming.

The gm who supposedly fixed the Oline...actually didn’t, but he seemed to tell everyone he did. They aren’t very good. Giants should be drafting a QB this year.

We fared well today...giants and eagles lose. And cowboys gained some faux confidence

Maybe that was plan. Get the RB last year and then the QB this year.

No , it was said they improved and addressed the O line no one I know ever thought it was fixed.it still isn't very good. The defense did look good .
