Re: Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

Kirk is losing some fan base with his stubborn ways of not committing to this team. When asked by Adam S. "Do you want to be a redskin long term? " he said "I don't know the answer to that, I have to keep an open mind because things change in this league fast"... Dude just answer yes or no! He's like that one GF that just can't decide on what she wants to do with her life.. I like Kirk but man this gets old.

If he answered that he would lose all of his leverage in contract negotiations, so Kirk answered exactly the way he should have.

He's just being honest. Shouldn't we be more frustrated with the team not committing to him?

I really don't understand why the Skins haven't put a decent offer out there for him. Put the ball in his court, make KC explain why he's not signing a fair deal. Give him a good guarantee 22-24M with escalators that allow him to be the highest paid QB in the league, if he earns it.

That always seems to be the standard MO around the league, not sure why the Skins can't follow either. It just tells me they don't think he's elite or worth big money.

Point Blank yes.

KC is going down the path the team said they wanted to go in relation to the FT. He hasn't done a Josh Norman and refused to sign. As Bruce Allen said, it really is simple, and if they wanted it done, they would put an offer on the table that is comparable to the guarantees they are giving him by using the FT.

At the same token 44M for up to 36 games, is a hell of a lot of money, and it does boggle the mind that he would not sign for even more guaranteed if it were in front of him.

Re: Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

My question is, if they offer him 5 years at 23.94 per with half guaranteed, would he sign immediately? It's hard to voice what side you're most frustrated with because we don't know the details of any offers or counter offers. Just hold your nose because this can easily go to July.
