Cousins 3.0, he's going to sign the franchise tag

Saturday
5 years
25 per
62.5 guaranteed

No way will it be under 65 guaranteed.

Saturday, 5 years, $25M per, $75M guaranteed.

Seriously, you're deflecting criticism of Vinny?

The guy was playing fantasy football with our roster.

And poorly.

He was a farging idiot.

He made us a laughing stock and set us back 8+ years.

:banghead:


No, just stating the fact that Snyder was pulling a lot of those strings back then.

The reason Cousins comes out and says "if I base my life around money then shame on me" is because he's publicly preparing to save face by not taking every penny his leverage dictates he could.

As long as the 'Skins come with something reasonable, that recognizes the short supply of QBs in the NFL, he'll sign.

Listening to Andrew Brandt yesterday he thinks a deal will get done and it won't be the crazy expensive deal some are expecting it to be.

Exactly, it was like Vinny was the pilot but Danny told him when to turn land etc..technical Vinny was flying the plane but Danny was the one in control.

Andrew Brandt is very knowledgeable in this area and I trust his insight better than most sports news folks, given his background/experience.

I think it will take 25M per, I just dont see the Skins offering it. I like the optimism though.

Rappaport says both Skins FO and Kirk are on board with him playing out the tag. If true, we better draft a QB in '18.

He said the same thing in April.
When he said Cousins will be traded before the draft.
