bzane Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 9 hours ago, KhanYouDigIt said: He’s played some OT in the past, correct? Is he better suited at G? @KhanYouDigIt- Yes, he's a very good guard, but passable at right tackle. Pugh was a left tackle in college, at Syracuse, and a decent "foot athlete" for the position, at least at the college level. He lacked the necessary length for left tackle in the NFL, and was converted (I believe that was the plan by the Giants all along, in the manner of Zack Martin with the Cowboys) successfully to left guard. When he has been healthy he's been an effective guard. Can play either tackle as a fill-in but not someone you'd want starting at OT for long stretches. If he can stay healthy for the Jags he would be a good pick-up. Reputedly a good teammate and locker-room guy, also. Good signing if you guys pull it off.

tom cody Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 I figured Cousins would get paid, just not sure he'd get that much, I figure the money will eventually go down for what he gets a year. The Vikings are a good fit for him though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even had we resigned him in 2015, he would of just asked for more than what is it now by 2019. Dudes about money he isn't elite at all. I feel bad for anyone who signs him and expects him to be a prime time player. He has declined every year and the excuse been piling up . Decent to good player but very overrated . Nothin wrong with a dude tryin to get paid. The problem was with the Redskins front office not Cousins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been saying he would get between 30 and 40 million a year guaranteed, but I suspected a 5 year deal, which it could still turn out to be!!!

aceinthehouse Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Cousins has some alarming stats, that would make me stay clear of him @30M per. overall record, his record vs facing teams above .500, etc. These stats are directly correlated to putting a team on your back & winning. He NEVER won a playoff game & is commanding Rodgers money. It's why the Redskins made the trade they did & why if I were the Jets, minny or Denver? I would look elsewhere in FA or the draft. Heck, Bortles, keenum, Marrioti & Foles can at least say one time in their life? That they won a big game when it really mattered. Cousins, not so much. Cousins should wear a sign on his back during these interviews... "BUYER BEWARE" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodjahs12 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Chancellor said something very similar. Have to believe Sherman has been cut or less likely traded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connection with Marrone/Coughlin etc. We have a need for interior OL help (and he is versatile which is important). I hope he's a main target, especially if ARob isn't retained and $$$ is open for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
