Couple that with 3 Shanahan connected Coaches and Cousins is a Jet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this is really a bidding war, I hope we lose fast. He said he wants to win first and foremost, so if the Vikings happen to make an offer, I’d imagine he would go there. It’ll come down to more than just 2 teams. He ranked 20th because 20 of the 52 other players on the roster were injured haha using stats without context is a poor use of stats.

Jetfan66 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I would much prefer to draft a QB and sign pieces like Allen Robinson, Le'Veon Bell and Demarcus Lawrence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see a situation where the Broncos trade Talib and #5 for Cousins and #13. Allows the Broncos to free up space and gives the Redskins a CB to replace Fuller. It would also put them in prime position to land a new QB. The only issue would be that is and the Bills could likely still leapfrog them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance on any of them. The top end free agents will get tagged. So we will be paying for middle level guys but paying top end prices. That’s why it makes sense to sign Cousins and then pick up some lesser payed, younger players and use our draft capital to improve the team.

I am sure your are right, those top FA will resign with their current team. Jacksonville is desperate for WR's. & the Steelers will not let Bell walk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doumeyer Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 With Alex Smith going to the Redskins, it looks like our main competition in the Cousins derby is going to be Buffalo, Denver, & the Cards. If he is the QB that he wants Mac better sharpen his pencil, the competition is going to be tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimuraGod Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Makes me laugh when people are saying Kirk will choose Denver because of the defense and the wide receivers they have. Wouldn’t they have to cut Talib and one of those receivers just to get even close to having the cash to sign him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetfuel34 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I'm not a big fan of Cousins but to have an above average QB who has at least 5-6 good years left is a nice thought. I just don't want to make a huge bid at him. I don't see him being a high 20 or low 30 mill type guy. I think he is more of a low 20 type of guy. If we signed him for like 5 years 100 mill. I would be fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too prefer to draft a guy like Mayfield and add the top FA's but that rarely happens. You're 100% right that if we did go the young QB route we'd likely miss on the real difference makers in FA and be stuck paying good FA's great money.
