The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

[MTK]

Skins would be stupid on many levels if they tag him. He should file a grievance. The point of the tag is to work out a long term deal, the Skins obviously have no intention of that.

They should just come out and say we are not tagging Kirk.

They could argue the tag is there to protect the teams investment in the player. And it gives their trade partner a chance to work out a deal

That would be an admission to violating the franchise tag rules. KC wouldn't need an agent to win that case.

What rule would that be?

They are arguing the spirit of the rule.

I was pretty sure there was a clause about punitive tags, but I couldn't find it. Tagging him though would invite the NFLPA to argue collusion of the teams to restrict his free movement. It wouldn't be a slam dunk but we wouldn't be able to sign Smith for the expected contract with KCs FT amount on our books.

What will Washington do with Kirk Cousins? – ProFootballTalk

Good read. Really outlines all of the fallout if Washington tags Kirk again. Brings up the high chance that it blows up in our face if Cousins waits to sign, and if he signs, the Redskins would likely back out of the Alex Smith trade because of the cap hit.

Redskins aren't going to back out and although there won't be any official talk they may have a something quietly worked out.

Florio is a tool, he hates the REDSKINS which is why he will not use the name in anything he posts, hes a clown.
