Kirk Cousins 365 thread

[Schneed10]

The dumbest thing of all is putting any credence in the rumors that Shanahan could go hard after Cousins. Like, does anybody really think Kyle Shanahan has had any time to do anything besides watch tape and gameplan for the teams the Falcons have faced in the playoffs? There's no way he's talking to all these NFL insiders and telling them how much he wants Cousins. And San Fran doesn't even have a GM in place, for God's sake. All this is just speculation, that because Kyle had Cousins and liked him here, that he'd like him in San Fran.

But to say that the 49ers would be willing to give up two first round picks is getting the cart waaay out in front of the horse.

When Kyle gets there, he'll assess his roster, and he'll form an opinion. He'll no doubt like the idea of Cousins but there's no telling how much he'd want to give up in a franchise tag steal deal. And all of that will be subject to discussion with the GM, who hasn't even been hired yet. He'll go through his own assessment of the roster.

Is it possible? Sure I guess. But acting like this is a done deal doesn't even make one shred of sense. Snake, you suck at thinking. Please just stop posting.

The most likely course is that the Redskins pay Cousins handsomely in a long term contract.
