I have to believe KC and his agent are using this as a bargaining chip to try to get more out of the Skins and I dont blame them but its obvious to anyone paying attention that what's best for all is to KC to resign.

i like the skins bargaining chip - well just tag you at 20 mil and let you decide to walk away from fair guaranteed money in the hopes you dont get hurt or regress.

every single snap, whether in practice or regular season, could be your last. an acl injury puts him out for the year, then he rehabs, has to re-prove himself .... suddenly he is 30 and a question mark.

cousins still has some to prove. i have him penciled in as a 10-15 best QB, i think he thinks he is top 10 written in permanent marker.

the guy had 8 or so really good games.

if Cousins wants north of 20 mil per, why even negotiate with him? that is about the tag money but without the long term commitment.
