Nonetheless, as for QB contributions to wins, we know already what the current QB group offers: nothing. We will once again have one of the worst QB groupings in the league if we stand pat.

What do you suggest that they do? The options are pretty limited in free agency.

We didn't win with Cousins anymore than we did with RG3 and RG3 turned the ball over way less, but lots of people seem to think Cousins is better. RG3 is better and has a higher ceiling.

Trade Cousins, trade down, draft a starting right tackle and free safety.

Something tells me there will be 3 team draft day trade where we end up with Sam Bradford😞

True about FA. Same is true in the draft in terms of instant starters.

IMO we should swap first round picks with the Iggles, picking up Sam Bradford in the process. We also should draft a rookie to groom like Sean Mannion in the middle rounds. Thus we have a starter caliber player for this year (although no world beater) and an eye on the future.

Trading in this way with the Iggles would still leave us with pick #20, where right tackles, pass rushers, and maybe even Landon Collins would be available. So we fix QB - albeit maybe only temporarily - and still improve elsewhere with a first round talent.

I don't think we could get a bag of chips for Cousins at this point

The Eagles probably aren't trading Bradford. Also he's as fragile as a wine glass. He more fragile than Griffin. No way would I want that guy. He's talented but even when healthy it's been mixed results.

I'm with you on Mannion.

I don't think we would get a high pick. But we don't need the 3 ring circus again. Even if we can just get back a 4th or 5th rounder, take it. You can find a starting right guard there if you draft the right guy.

If we got a 6th rounder for him, I'd be shocked.

Hopefully they are actively exploring the opportunity to move him. It would be good for Cousins and our team. A 6th probably isn't worth pulling trigger though. I just don't want all 3 on the roster. The dynamic seems too dysfunctional. Hopefully RG3 takes the reins and runs with them this off season. The arm talent is so damn awesome if he could get the mental side rolling.

The Redskins just resigned Colt McCoy. Now they have the same QBs they had last season.

As of a few weeks ago no one has called about him.

No way I trade our 5th pick to philly for their pick at 20th and Sam Bradford. He much as a risk as RG3 at this point. Maybe a team like the Bears or Browns will won't to draft Marcus Marriota at 5 . I would listen to them and the Browns do have 2 first round picks this year. I'm not moving down past 15th pick.

No way. We'll win a minimum of 6 games. That defensive line has been upgraded dramatically. However, six may also be the maximum wins as well...lol

Have it your way. Six wins. Still not good enough.
