Cousins Open to Trade.

[skinsfan69]

Why would Houston make a play for Cousins? You guys are grasping. If Houston trades for a QB wouldn't O'Brien get someone he's familiar with? ...like Matt Cassel? Or maybe even Ryan Mallett? It looks like KC is staying put. As I've said all along, we need to have a solid back up behind RG3.

KC is not solid enough for me.

Technically RG3 isn't "solid enough". Until he plays a full season healthy, we better have somebody good to back him up. Any ideas?

Here's why Houston could be in play..
1. They need a QB. They have Case Keenum, Ryan Fitzpatrick and TJ Yates on the roster right now. John Beck looks at them and giggles a bit.
2. Matt Cassell is the Vikings starting QB, they aren't going to trade him at this point. No way you can invest 7 first round picks over 3 years and go into the season with Christian Ponder and Teddy Bridgewater.
3. Mallett is off the block (reportedly) so the #1 available QB for trade is Cousins.
*EDIT* 4. No way in hell they draft David Carr's little brother. PR disaster whenever he makes a poor play/decision.

Stay or go, I don't care either way because McCoy is pretty much the same QB as Cousins, only older and with more experience. If Houston is willing to give up the 1st pick of the 3rd round for Cousins, see ya dude.
