Remember that option 2 may end up costing as much as option 3 or more in terms of draft picks. Also that this draft is widely considered poor in terms of QB skill. A team like the Texans(or Broncos) who have a late first round pick and a need at QB might take option 3.
The rookie contract under your option 2 would be way less than making a deal with Kirk Cousins. So no, option 2 wouldn't be anywhere near the cost of option 3.

Read the sentence, In terms of draft picks. Besides the Cap is getting a fair sized bump this year and no one is going to complain about paying a QB. Of course you only do this if you are sure he sign a multi year deal.

The main problem is that the Redskins have right of first refusal. They can put together any deal they want (that they can live with) and the Redskins simply sign the deal instead, and you have to assume they would for any near standard deal.

The Texans have about $40 million more in Cap space than the Skins. If the contract was heavily front loaded the Skins might not be able to match it.

Texans have 32M in cap space. We have 35.5M tied up in the QB position. Then when we release Griffin we are in the same place that the Texans would be after taking on any KC contract.

But Matty is right, no team is gonna try to sign him.

Hey jackass(since we are insulting people) you acted like there was no possible way for KC to leave.. It most certainly is possible. I Am here to tell you, You don't know what the fuck you are talking about. You might think you know something, but you don't.

Well I know this, he can't leave. Because he agreed to sign the tender, he's signing it tomorrow morning, which makes him ours on a one year 19.9M deal.

He can no longer negotiate with any other clubs. Note it didn't take him long to make this decision BECAUSE HE WANTS TO BE HERE, something every real fan has known all along. Now kindly fuck off and come back when you know 10 percent as much as I do.

Nobody is going to trade for him. End of story. Scot and co did their homework, guaranteed.

You're lucky I don't have the ban button at my fingertips because you're well-deserving.

Don't get your feelings hurt, I call bullshit when I see it and I'm never wrong.

Now you know, and knowing is half the battle.
