The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

[sdskinsfan2001]

AS > KC all day based on contracts and team chemistry. I think a QB that goes 8-8ish every year that is making 30 million dollars is terrible for team chemistry. Eventually guys are gonna resent not just that you're making that much, but that the team can't sign or keep other guys because you're making that much. Excited to move on and we'll draft our long term future QB to learn for a year or 2 next draft.

KC will be the highest paid player until the Rodgers deal.

You think he gets more than Brews? No way.

That's Scot Mccloughan's contract.

I can see Brees taking a discount

Bree’s is not going to get a longer term deal. He turned 39 January 15th. He will receive a three year deal for big money but KC will get a five year for huge money. The whole time Rodgers is sitting at home laughing because Green Bay will have to surpass all of the current contracts.

Cousins is going to have a lot of competition. He's got some free agents that are way cheaper and of course some really good rookies. It will be interesting come March.

I keep saying this, and when you take the Redskins out of the equation, a team has to fall in love with him to pay over the top money. I just don't think his body of work, and his previous non-negotiations with the Redskins will get teams jumping over each other to sign him.

Not really. Brock Osweiler got a huge ass contract from the idiotic Texans. Just takes desperation and stupidity to sign those kinds of contracts.

Again, I agree that that is true, but a winning FO won't do those stupid contracts, so IF KC is honest about going to a winning franchise, he will not get over JG money. IF he just wants to capitalize on being an NFL qb, without regard to what his team's record is, he will be the highest paid QB (APY) for a few days.

So why not trade up in the draft trade picks and take a rookie QB and move up in the draft,you would save cap space that way.

You don't need to do that. You can find quality starters in the 3rd or 4th round. With our situation, we aren't a QB away from contending so that's why the trade for Smith was useless.

I really think you’re overthinking it CR.

Top 12 QB hits the market in the prime of his career = payday

And it wouldn’t be over the top money, it’s market value for the next guy up
