Cousins is a good QB. I'm not sure if we are good enough to afford to pay for him to stay. This is what I mean by this...

We need a DT, WR, RB, LB, LG and QB (if Cousins walks).

Let's say we draft a RB. (my hope Guice)

We will need to resign Zach Brown, Mason Foster, Niles Paul?, Trent Murphy?, Spencer Long?, Junior Gallette? IMO.

Then we want an upgrade at LG, Pass Rusher, Wide Reciever, and Defensive Tackle. I don't believe in the front office's ability to draft.

The question for me is not whether or not Cousins is worth the $34.5 Million to franchise him or make him the highest paid player in the league. The question is can we pay that high price tag knowing we have so many other holes to fill on this team.

Right now, I let him walk or trade him for picks. Yes, we take a step back, but we can afford to strengthen other positions of need for the team.
