Is Allen Justified If No One Overpays for Cousins

Allen has taken a lot of heat from fans for the Cousins situation. The more I am reading papers from Denver Cleveland and New York I am seeing stories souring on the idea of signing Cousins. And Buffalo does not have that kind of money. So will it justify the Skins handling of the situation?

Gonna be honest, I don't see the need for another Kirk Cousins thread.

I’ll gladly eat crow if he doesn’t become the highest paid player in the league. I’m just lost on this idea some people have that he won’t draw strong interest from a few teams and get big money.

I am starting to see articles out there about what it takes to get to the Superbowl and Cousins is not elite. How the other QBs may be signed for around 20 million a year and the teams that are qb needy could draft save money and build around a guy.

???No one says KC was "elite". Eagles QB's not "elite" good,YES but "elite no.They(the TEAM) had a great season with a great run game and a hell of a defense but their QB's are not elite. I for one believe the Skins are only a few piece's short of a very good contending team .If JG gets what he did for 5 games then no doubt KC gets the same if not more,I haven't seen any not one article that says KC is not worth it.

There was an article on NFL.com where many felt he was not worth more than Jimmy G. And articles in Denver and N.Y. saying their teams would be better drafting and or signing cheap and qbs.

Honestly can't find it but did find this one and here I will link it for you..........

Cousins is about to become the best quarterback to ever hit free agency. He's a Pro Bowl-caliber player without a significant injury history who is in the prime of his career and has years of high-end production ahead of him. His availability will present an interesting opportunity for quarterback-needy teams.

Idk about you Quake but I kinda want to enjoy revisiting this thread in a month after Kirk signs elsewhere.

I think it will be interesting if he doesn't get Smith money at least or if he becomes the highest paid but the team that signs him does no better than the Skins.

Good arguments could have been made against Stafford, Carr, and certainly Garoppolo getting the money they did. Are any of those guys “elite”? I don’t think so.

Kirk is going to get paid. You’re in denial if you think otherwise.

Stafford definitely not. I could understand Carr and Garoppolo for their impact on their teams. Before Carr got hurt the Raiders were looking great and they lost him and the team went pretty much belly up.

Garoppolo immediate impact on the 49ers.

My family who are Lions fans were like Redskin fans. Our qb is setting records for yards. But in both cases it did not translate to wins.

I don't get it either Matty. I mean Matt Flynn got a 40 million deal from what two games in Green Bay? Osweiler got an insane contract worth some 75 million and was pretty average (if not below) in the few games he played in Denver. Yet somehow, we are to believe Kirk Cousins who's thrown for over 4,000 yards the past 3 seasons plus a good amount of TDs isn't going to be paid higher than some guy who played 6-7 games.

Bullshit. Expect that contract to hit the 30mil/yr with about 90-100mil guaranteed. Is he worth it? Fuck no. Teams are idiots though and they'll do whatever they can.

On to Alex Smith folks. Let this rest, he's gone and will get a huge deal. Good for him
