Add to those facts, the rumors that McVay would radio to Cousins who to throw the ball to presnap... It puts me on the fence about giving him franchise money. Look past the fact he is a nice guy and the DC media loves him.
Gruden made Andy Dalton look good. You replace DJax with Pryor opposite Garcon. Resign Vernon Davis, add Leary as the LG and bring in Williams to complement Fat Rob the offense will be okay with a game manager.
By trading Cousins or letting some other team take him on defense you add a top 2 talent on the DLine, a Safety to pair with Cravens before you even mention free agents. By saving on Cousins we can use the money to sign Hankins, Lorenzo A., and Hightower in hopefully a Ryan styled defense.
I would take my chances with that my friend, regardless of the QB's name for one year. The QB draft class of 2018 is way better than this year.

Cannot disagree about Kirk in fairly big moments, but also not ready to start the quarterback search again. He is better than anything we have had at that position in a long long time. He will win a championship in Washington IF we give him a defense.
