MKnight82 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 So there's some of this Cousins traded to Denver rumor stuff floating out there. I'm curious how logistically that would work. Would Denver be acquiring the rights to negotiate a long term deal with Cousins before the deadline to tag him? I mean we're essentially trading a guy that will be a free agent in a month, is there any value in that? Technically I guess Denver would have the ability to tag him if they wanted? but wait the deal can’t even be finalized for awhile like the A smith trade can’t either right? So again I’m left wondering logistically how that even works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean if for some reason they managed to snag a pick for Kirk it would be remarkable considering how stupid they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did it in 2012, which caused the Chiefs to buy high on him as well (sent a 2012 2nd and 2013 2nd for him). So all we need to do is suffer through four years of mediocre quarterback play to have him ball out in his final season so we can trade a 39/40 year quarterback to a desperate team for a high-to-mid level pick. It could happen, right?! Or now that you have the consistent "B grade" quarterback on the roster, fix some positional weaknesses, and hope they can get hot come playoff time? Smith won't carry a team with too much weakness on it, but he can get you far, if the team around him is "B grade" strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we can offer the Broncos Kirk and the 13th pick in the draft but they have to take Bruce Allen. That's the terms of the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footy_29 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Transition tag window is February 20-March 6 Cousins will be given an opportunity to assess his value and find at least 2 trading partners. Both teams will be asked for their offers, and whoever wins gets Kirk. Could be a midday pick, could be a first round pick. If he can't, they hit him with the tag on the 6th and trade him at the start of the league year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone trade us anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some team will pay. ================== Broncos just offered a 2nd plus Talib and the Brows offered multiple picks for Alex Smith, and the Redskins won out. Everyone knew that Mahomes was the starter next year, so why pay now and not wait? Avoid open market competition and buy certainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Smith is under contract Cousins isn’t. if the redskins transition tag Cousins they can’t derermine his destination. Cousins would be able to talk to other teams and sign with one he chooses, then the Redskins can either match it or he goes to that team. So again I ask, why would anyone trade us anything when we can’t force him to sign a contract with anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’d either be stuck paying him $28 Mil this year or we can rescind the tag and he’d become a free agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
