Kirk Cousins, Washington Redskins break off contract negotiations
Im really curious to know what Cousins and his agent Mike McCartney want.
If he wants more than 17-18 mil per for 4 years, 50% guaranteed .. i wouldnt hesitate to tag him.
I think Cousins has high value in this system throwing the ball to Jordan Reed/Jackson/Garcon. I think Cousins does not do as well on the 31 other teams.
I dont mind the idea of tagging him and letting him prove himself for another year.
if he wants to gamble that he has a healthy and equally productive 2016 and not take the "your family is set for life" offer now .. god bless him and good luck.
Cousins you are one blown 1 acl away. Take the guaranteed money my friend. You are looking at 35 mil or so guaranteed no matter what happens ... but you want to roll the dice for a few mil more?
good luck with that. |
IMO KC and his agent know the Skins really have no viable replacement at QB. Colt isn't a starter and RG's ship has sailed with this coaching staff. Bringing in a free agent who can start wont be much cheaper and it will be another lost year while he learns the system/playbook. I have to believe KC and his agent are using this as a bargaining chip to try to get more out of the Skins and I dont blame them but its obvious to anyone paying attention that what's best for all is to KC to resign.
