For the right price, Kirk will sign in DC. But if he's going to be traded the only place he'll sign a long-term deal is SF. Chicago being a very distant second. So SF is really the only viable trade partner
They love him in Chicago. Must be the MSU connection. Either way, I'm over it all. If he stays great, if not o well

Cousins was born in Barrington, Illinois.
I doubt there is a Chicago/MSU connection.
Most people in the Chicago area think Michigan is above Minnesota.

Re: Kirk Cousins 365 thread

I don't think its crazy to think the Rams would become involved somehow.

Goff for Cousins and a couple picks?

Re: Kirk Cousins 365 thread

Cooley believes Cousins is not worth 2 first round picks..Hmmmm...very interesting.could it be that the folks who are about to jump off ledge because we may not sign Kirk to long term deal are wrong about Cousins ability ..Not worth 2 first round picks(or at least no team would give up that for him says a lot about his value..) MAYBE He is not all that and the Skins front office don't want to be saddled to a overpaid underachiever for next 5 years.. His stats could be a result of the system ..he had best WR group in league..top TE..good if not great pass protection..very good play calling( Mcvay ended up head coach..that tells you something) remember we missed the playoffs this year . My gut Tells me Cousins is a good QB in the right system but I don't believe he will ever be the guy that can carry the team to the big dance..( Brady,Rogers,Newton,Ryan,Brees,Carr,Flaco,Manning, Wilson,Big Ben..Im not sure Cousins is near that group.) lets just see what happens ..the only thing that would really bother me is Getting Romo or Cutler..If Colt has to be the QB next year and we can win 8-9 games then so be it.

Re: Kirk Cousins 365 thread

Well now that deadline day is here, let's hope that the FO doesn't have a fax snafu a la Denver and let's KC walk out for nothing...

Those of us who believe in Kirk's ability are not wrong about him. He led the entire NFL in QBR over the period of the last 12 regular season games (games 5 through 16) of 2017. He is a winner and he is still developing his skills (meaning he will continue to get better). He has avoided injuries, so you can expect him to be available from week to week (which is a very big deal in the NFL) and he may have as many as 10 years left in his NFL career. So, yes, he is "all that".

Cooley may think he's not worth two number one picks, but the league says he is worth it if he receives the non-exclusive tag and another team signs him.

If Kirk should go to SF, he and Kyle Shanahan will light up the league like you won't believe. That is, as soon as SF get him some weapons to work with. Believe me, we're going to suffer without him if he goes because no journeyman QB is going to be able to duplicate what he does for this team.

Just to make my position on this matter as clear as possible, if this front office doesn't re-sign Cousins they can all eat shit, die, and go to Hell. And they should take "company man" Cooley with them.

1st in the league in total air yard, 3rd in the league in yards/attemp... This is not a system QB, this is at minimum a very good QB. Alex Smith is a system QB, the team is efficient because of the system, and he manages the game.

KC is doing more than that.

We have the best WR group in the league? What part of it belongs to Cousins? Desean is fast but made of glass and aging, I love Garçon but he's no Antonio Brown or Anthony Hopkins (that young man is making wonders with shitty QBs), Crowder is a really promising WR... But IMO, apart from Jordan Reed when healthy, we have good players, no great amazing receivers.

Barring any huge improvement both on defense and in the running game, we are NOT winning 8-9 games with Colt McCoy at QB.

Agreed, we would be lucky to win five with Colt. Plus who is he throwing the ball too? Pierre and DJax wouldnt want to come back to catch balls from Colt. Plus the dude has a noodle arm and underthrows guys on 35 yard "bombs"

True. That noodle arm is what keeps him from being a viable option as a starter.

I would take that, Goff will be the best passer from the class.

Re: Kirk Cousins 365 thread

My final prediction. Kirk is tagged and traded to SF for the 2nd overall pick. Scot knows SF wants Kirk bad

Re: Kirk Cousins 365 thread

KC isn't going to SF this year. They suck and won 2 games. Why would they give up their draft picks being a 2 win team? That makes zero sense.
