THIS is how you say goodbye to a team. Huge difference between Alex and Kirk. Kirk's goodbye was full of shit with the "oh the team didn't want me" crap. I'm glad Alex Smith is here. Fuck you Kirk. We upgraded!

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

Drew Brees got 3mil less a year than KC. My first reaction was that's insane if that's what the market thought about these 2 QBs for the next 2-3 years.

Then I saw he was offered 30mil somewhere else, but turned it down to stay in NO...

He wasn't like that before this contract. He went for max money.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

First of all, Fuck Kirk Cousins. He is the first franchise quarterback, that I know of, that left his team. Greedy asshole. With that said, we could have paid him, the same thing Minnesota paid him, and saved money. The way I see it, to replace Fuller, your looking at 11 million a year. So combine that with Smiths salary, we would have saved money.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

If he was truly going for max money he would have went to NY. Either way he’s played it perfectly and may be leading the way for fully guaranteed contracts in the future vs the bogus deals that are given out now.

We also don't know what others would offer.

"There is no way I would be where I am today without the leadership of the Redskins organization … Coach Gruden, Bruce Allen, Dan Snyder. Thank you all for the opportunity you gave me. When Cooper someday asks: “Hey Dad, what was it like playing for the Redskins?” I’ll proudly tell him it was a dream come true.

Thanks for having me, Washington, and thanks for making me into the player I am today!"

But what a D-Bag Cousins is, and what a great guy Alex Smith is, right?

I’m sure the Vikings are well aware of how their cap projects over the next 3 years. This is hardly a deal that will handcuff them.

Re: Thank You Kirk Cousins Thread
 

I'm still blown some team offered him a lot of money. I thought teams generally don't overpay in free agency regardless of talent.

I will be interested (in an nfl fan way not KC specific) to see what happens at the end of the 3 years.
