[quote=skinsfan69;1184668]Who do you want to bring in here that's better than Cousins? Deshawn Watson isn't in this draft. You can keep Alex Smith or Andy Dalton. Everyone has a hard on for Baker Mayfield, he certainly makes plays with both his arm and legs.[/quote]

No one we draft will be as good year 1, but we're a 7-9 team. Paying 30 million for an 8-8ish ceiling isn't worth it to me. We can sign guys to long term contracts and bring in a QB that gets a year to learn, and that is worth the risk to me .

Is giving a mediocre qb 30 million worth not having a better option for 1 year?

I just don't see Kirk ever winning a SB, and that's the only thing that matters.

[quote=mooby;1184669]I can't take you seriously because of this line. Nobody in the NFL gets amped up to finish the season at .500. Would it be a solid statement to make after all the injuries? Sure. But it's nowhere near the same as finishing the season strong trying to make a playoff run or just get in.[/quote]

The people who had the over on 7.5 wins (me) take it serious.

Listening to every former Redskins player this week, they weren't pumped for the game. They wanted a good showing but more than anything no injuries.

I don't know how important .500 was to the team or players. I have a feeling it wasn't. Whether it should be is up for debate.

That was an add on to my point, and I do think a lot of fans/players value being .500+ vs. under that. This site proves it from other threads, on the fan side. I see your point tho. At the end of the day 7-9 is the same as 8-8 if no playoffs.

Re: @ Giants Final Gameday thread of the year !
 

Swearinger said it stunk to not finish 8-8. There is just something to not losing more than you win. A pride thing, even if no difference on making playoffs.

Again I say if kirk would sign a salary cap friendly deal, then I say sign him. If not, then I say to get something for him and send him packing. He is not worth anywhere near 27 million. Colt can probably do that well and save us several million to get help else where. I would start with a top notch RB.

Re: @ Giants Final Gameday thread of the year !
 

So what’s a “cap friendly deal” exactly?

This is really the jist of everything. It can be similarly phrased as how much is he worth? Unfortunately the answer is getting more difficult, not easier.

Re: @ Giants Final Gameday thread of the year !
 

We just paid him $24m this year so let’s add 10% and go from there. If you think he needs to take less you’re simply not being realistic.

Over 28 and you have to consider letting him go.

Ha! No one saw a 3 int performance coming from Cousins against that secondary,but once again Skins found a way to sink lower.
Somehow I still managed to win 25 bucks with that lineup even with Cousins in it:)

Re: @ Giants Final Gameday thread of the year !
 

I think Cousins could be better under a well established QB smart head coach.

One thing I will say, don't let contract negotiations linger on. The team needs to start now in building for 2018. So, let's take the guessing game out of this and get a deal down right away, or let's plan to move on and put a plan in place for 2018. As much as I like Cousins, you can't allow him to string this along deep into the offseason.
