The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

[skinsfaninok]

From Eric Galko Sporting news

From what I’ve heard, and I asked a lot of people this week, It seems it’s more likely than not that Kirk plays for the #Broncos next year. And the contract details mat be very interesting. Arizona in the mix as well.

If they sign Kirk, I don’t expect a QB at 5.

Yeah the old saying is "when there is smoke there is usually fire" I'm going to go ahead and say Kirk is done in DC.

Yeah I'm already looking at Baker as our future. I would love to pick other needs at 13 but we need a QB so...

Yup. I’m over this Kirk Cousins drama. I’ve been his biggest supporter but it just seems like he doesn’t want to be here.. Hopefully our inept organization can luck into a good QB in the draft.

Can you really blame him for not wanting to be here? I know most people will point out the money we have gave him so far. That's good, but what any player wants is the long-term security. Hell any person really wants long-term security. Whatever job that you do, do you want to do it year to year, or would you hope your company wants you around long-term?

If reports are accurate, Dan / Allen didn't express any willingness to keep Cousins until year 3 of him starting. Remember after the Baltimore game that Cousins won with RG3 being hurt, Dan allegedly walked right by Cousins in the locker room, said nothing to him, and went over to RG3. How would that make you feel?

I think there's next to no chance we successfully draft / develop a QB. The argument could be made that we did that with Cousins, and ultimately failed when it came time to give him NFL starting QB money. Trading up for Picks to get a QB - those picks would be better used elsewhere on our team.

They offered him a long term deal during his first full season of starting.

Ah, KC was playing the long con, where he miraculously rises to the rank of a Pro Bowl caliber qb to burn the owner in the end. Nice.

I really think the low ball offers in consecutive years has more to do with this. First offseason they said they wanted him to prove himself some more, he did, and they still lowballed him. Now he probably can't wait to get out.

I can't believe people are still saying this when he admitted that they offered him a legit deal to start negotiating last year and he declined because he wanted to evaluate them.

I agree with everything you said... I’m just tired of the whole situation. I’m mentally preparing myself for his departure.

I also believe there is no doubt that this team will screw up and draft the wrong quarterback and the cycle will continue.

If the 49ers sign Garoppolo to a record deal before Kirk inks a deal I wonder if that will affect what Kirk is paid? Jimmy is 7-0 as a starter, even though a small sample, he won 5 straight with the previously 1-10 49ers, picking up their offense in mid season.

Denver is one of the teams coaching the Senior Bowl. NFL Network reported that they specifically wanted to coach Mayfield. They (Elway) requested Mayfield to be coached by Denver. I found that interesting. Why pay Kirk when you can get a guy that might have more upside on a rookie deal?
