Not drafting a QB a mistake?

How many QBs has this franchise passed on?

Look how much money has been spent between Cousins and Alex Smith compared to draft picks?

The past 3 years have been a case study in lack of foresight at the most important position in the NFL.

The money spent is a really good point...Alex Smith money turned out to be a terrible idea...Bruce did not need to extend immediately. Could have traded and said, lets see how this works out first.

Its really funny...Bruce low balled Cousins and then poison pilled Alex Smith. Complete mismanagement, this is why nobody takes this team seriously

So you would have had another year of QB uncertainty, after going through two years of that hell with Cousins?

Cousins low-balled himself when he was demanding money that should only be paid to an elite QB that can carry a team. See how well that's working out in Minnesota.

Allen's biggest mistake was not trading Cousins once they should have realized he wasn't going to play here no matter what.

Cousins countered with 19.5 million per year that is on par with Ryan Tannehill. You can blame Cousins all you want but the FO screwed that up big time. KC is definitely not elite but he is definitely worth the 17th highest QB contract in the NFL.

MTK is right , no GM could have envisioned this happening . Maybe you just stay with Sanchez for a year or possibly trade for a younger back up without breaking the bank and wait till 2020

Ehhh I don’t know. I think a lot of GM’s could have seen at least that Alex Smith was not going to be as good as Cousins and locked Cousins up but hey this is where we are at so.....

Cousins was not going to sign with the skins. He wanted to romanced and taken to the prom so he could fall on his back with his legs in the air.
