looks like some negotiations have started:

Sources are reporting that the Redskins have offered Cousins a long term deal at $20 million per season. The franchise tag is worth $24 million. That is likely where any long term deal parameter lies. If you recall, the maximum offer for Cousins last season by the Redskins brass was $16 million per season. The fact the Redskins are offering $4 million below the franchise tag shows that any long term deal may be far off. Bottom line is, Cousins will likely command between $24 and $25 million per season and until numbers such as that are discussed, the Cousins’ saga will just continue to drag on. The positive news is the fact that discussions are occurring between the two sides.
