2012 NFL Draft Day 3

[skinster]

My gut reaction to Cousins was negative, but when I thought about it I realized I loved it for a number of reasons.
The best teams draft purely based off of talent. If we think Cousins was too good value to pass up, I love it. First of all RGIII is injury prone, and a good backup can be invaluable. Second of all, if Cousins is starting material, we can flip him for a high pick 4 years down the road. Third of all, it can be helpful for RGIII to have a fellow rookie qb that is gunning for his job. He won't feel as if he has time to get better just because he's a rookie if he has a fellow rookie breathing down his neck.
