If they want exclusive rights to negotiate or rent for a year they would have.

One reason why the #Redskins won't actually franchise tag and trade Kirk Cousins: If he gets tagged/traded, he won't negotiate at all with the new team. He'll play on $34M for one year.

I figured that is the word his agent put out. I can see the Skins avoiding players rep by these guys for awhile.

Lol negotiating is a 2 way street, why would you trade anything for anyone if you had an idea they had no interest in negotiating with you?

If he won't negotiate don't trade for him.

Good riddance.

KC has been consistent for the past 3 years that he wants to hit free agency and see his value. He also has been consistent that if he's tagged he will sign the tag and play under the tag. Nothing in his position has changed over the past 3 years. Thank goodness this will all be done in less than a month.

I think there’s something to this, for everyone who complains about the drama the team creates those same people thrive on it

The Jets are supposedly considering either a fully guaranteed contract or 60 million for this season.

I could see a deal with the Jets for picks this and next depending on if he signs a long term deal.

Both of those are the worst ideas I've ever heard. They were so bad I almost didn't read the second sentence.

I think your second sentence is just as terrible because the risk in tagging Kirk severely outweighs the reward. We can't risk Kirk fighting the Redskins and screwing up our ability to improve the team over any attempt to get a decent reward for him.

If Kirk gets a crazy high guarantee that is only good for us, as the comp pick will be as high as possible. If we can get a risk free mid to late 3rd round pick, then why even begin to risk cap and draft penalties to get at best a 2nd. Makes 0 sense.
22 days til FA and this is done.

why would he choose not to negotiate? at least see what you can get from said team? if not, its 110% about money . . . oh wait, we know it is already!

I agree, it just doesn’t make any sense

But since it’s the Redskins we’re talking about we can’t rule out the possibility of them doing something really stupid

I can't wait until March 7th.

Because in the open market he can make beau coup bucks and have the freedom to pick what team he wants to join? It's a win-win, really.
