hammerva Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 And Kirk Cousins was franchised again. So either he is traded away this season or a lame duck QB who is leaving the next year. So for all those that remember the "well this looks bad if Kirk has a good season" argument last year, imagine it now where you know he is leaving Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 Just to expand further on what hammer mentioned - it is the exclusive tag so he can't look for other deals. The Skins can still trade him but he can't go looking for the deal Meanwhile - all my britches are going off my balcony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted February 28, 2017 Share Posted February 28, 2017 If I understand right, Washington can still theoretically sign him to a long term deal right now, and the tag could just be a way to keep him off the market. If they don't come to a deal though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 There is a zero percent chance they are coming to a long term deal because DC wants Cousins to agree to a deal well below market value Pretty much the only one sold on KC in the organization is Jay Gruden. The rest thing they can just plug in Colt McCoy and be just as good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burgundy LaRue Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Dear Bill Polian: It's not wise to talk about Terrell Owens and Randy Moss needing to be left out of the NFL HOF because of their bad attitudes when Marvin Harrison is your guy.

supremebve Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Here is the problem with Kirk Cousins if you are a GM. Cousins is not a very good quarterback...but he's better than anyone else available by a decent margin. Cousins has put up numbers that will demand a high price, but we all realize that he's probably not worth that price...except who else you going to get? A big part of his success is that his offensive weapons are really good...but if they pay him they can't pay them. Will he still be good if Desean Jackson isn't taking the top off the defense? What if Jordan Reed gets another concussion? Isn't Pierre Garcon a free agent too? Is he going to be any good throwing the ball to Jamison Crowder and Josh Doctson? Cousins has all of the leverage, because he has numbers that he can point at that will demand a high price and there are no other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted March 2, 2017 Author Share Posted March 2, 2017 Well that's okay - because the Skins really don't have a GM right now Stories to read http://washington.cbslocal.com/2017/03/02/scot-mccloughan-absent-from-redskins-park-since-february-20th/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/redskins/redskins-gm-scot-mccloughan-a-notable-absence-at-nfl-combine/2017/03/01/127d9b3e-fefa-11e6-99b4-9e613afeb09f_story.html?utm_term=.3aec9dbea4bd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Well they do have a GM. Unfortunately it is "winning off the field" Bruce Allen from the looks of it Dak Prescott might have been the worst thing that ever happened to the Skins because now too many people that they can just plug in a rookie QB and voila a great season.

Craig H Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I forget who now, but someone on ESPN was saying yesterday that the 49ers should go after Kirk because Kyle Shannannanananananahan could make Kirk into the next Matt Ryan or something.

Matt Ryan isn't a special quarterback, his supporting cast is phenomenal. Ryan is better when plays break down, but he isn't exactly Aaron Rodgers.

People who watch the All-22 think he's special. It helps that he had the players I named above, but a lot of people in the know love his play design. The issue both him and Kirk would have in San Francisco is that the cupboard is bare as far as offensive talent goes. Cian Fahey who watches every single play for every single team actually claims that Kaepernick well above average last year, but we'd never know because every other offensive player was well below average. That team has huge holes and Shanahan got hired because he was coaching an overwhelmingly talented offense. He could fail miserably, but still be great at his job, a football team is only as good as the players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
