Re: The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

Florio is CONSISTENTLY and COMPLETELY out of touch with the realities of the salary cap. I can't tell you how many times the dude has suggested a scenario that is completely impossible because of a team's salary cap situation.

He has done it again. Dallas currently has $19.1M in cap space. They'll need a chunk of that for rookies. Even if they get rid of Bryant which would save $8M, they would still find themselves with only $27M in cap space.

Signing Cousins would take up almost all of that. They'd be down Bryant, and would have to make even more cuts just to afford their own rookies.

Doing so would mean they'd lose every one of their own free agents, including stud DeMarcus Lawrence. It's not going to happen. The Cowboys are much more likely to make roster moves like cutting Bryant so they can franchise tag DeMarcus Lawrence.

Florio's an idiot. He's ignores the realities of the salary cap for the sake of saying something that will get clicks.

All I will say is Lawrence is tagged,soon Zek and Dak will need contracts and Dallas is going to go after a receiver soon. With what they would have to pay KC ....yes it is impossible.

Re: The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

You guys are too much. I have a different opinion, but I have 0 care if I'm wrong about what happens. You're so sure you're right that you don't even want to hear other opinions so badly that you're waiting for the hour that people can't have a differing opinion? Whatever guys, I'll stop posting about a tag and trade possibility.

Everyone's allowed to have their opinion, man... It's just getting far fetched and the risk of hurting the team is very high... hey, I would love to tag and trade, but instead of over hyping a very small percentage chance that happens... ... we're on to Alex Smith. Next question lol

I'm not trying to be a dick here. Im asking this sincerely, because I'd love to be also talking about Alex Smith, but there's literally another thread for that, so why no-one posting in it? Go talk there, if this conversation is over why is this thread still going? I don't know you all, I just don't post on threads I don't find interesting anymore.

Honestly, I had not been checking this thread (and the 4 previous ones) for a pretty long time...
But it's pretty much the only one active these days... Plus the Kirk drama is spreading on other threads.

1) I was fed up with this drama even before the season ended, but I was keeping it to myself... "He's our QB, it's legit we are talking about him and what's gonna happen"...
All I had to do was avoid the Kirk's thread, and go on other threads.

2) After the season ended, other threads pretty much died. "Hey, it's legit, QB is a huge question mark for us"...

3) After the Alex Smith trade I thought "Great, we can now move on, go forward, talk about building the team" ... but the tag and trade scenarios came up ... "hey it's legit, the FO F'd up this situation, we want to get something back from him".

...

4) But when it's clear Kirk won't cooperate (and we need him to cooperate for this not to backfire in our face Dracarys style), and "journalists" are just digging for things to write about when nothing is happening, one is allowed to hope, coming to this board, that people are going to spend at least the same amount of time and energy talking about the future of this team that they do commenting and elaborating stories about our former QB...

Re: The FINAL Kirk Cousins Saga thread. 5.0

Let an immediate Superbowl contender sign him then start cutting players next year.

Building a team for one year runs at the expense of long term success is never good.

The Eagles will be gutted over the next few years because of cap space.

So going all in and winning a SB isn’t worth it?

Not for one season if you are going to position yourself for missing playoffs in the future.

If you are going in for one year in a high player rental but will be ok next year then go for it.
