We all know Kirk Cousins refusal to sign with the Redskins is RGIII's fault! :d

I am pretty sure Snyder giving RG3 the keys to the city and meddling when Shanny wanted to move on from him didn't sit well with Kirk.

7am: Denver wants Kirk Cousins

9am: Jets are gonna give Cousins a mountain of cash.

Noon: Cousins has already chosen the Vikings.

Translation: Cousins' agent is playing y'all like a violin.

Re: Redskins don't plan on third straight franchise tag for Kirk Cousins

For those who want to see a very thorough breakdown of KC, from a Vikings fan perspective, this is really good.

https://vikingsterritory.com/2018/an...-cousins-worth

I really was curious what Jets/Broncos/Vikings fans are saying.

Re: Redskins don't plan on third straight franchise tag for Kirk Cousins

So how isn’t all this noise considered tampering?? Clearly teams and players are talking

That's a real good question. I wonder if the team that loses out tries to make a tampering case...

If the Vikings and Jets go a different way, not saying they will, then KCs FA trial would get a little harder.

Why would they both turn in a different direction? He’s clearly at the top of their wish lists.

They both have talked about having a plan B and a plan C. It is possible that the agent over plays his hand with both.

I don't think it's likely but if both decide the price gets too high they both have alternate plans. The Vikings at least have to consider Keenum at 10M less, and the Jets could fall in love with a top qb at a rookie salary, even cap isn't a huge issue.

$30M gets it done if that’s what the Vikings are offering. The Jets can pay him and still have more room than most teams to upgrade and not to mention a high pick. Money isn’t an issue for either of these teams.

No i get that. I just wonder if the agent tries to play to hard and both teams go for other options. I think it's definitely between the Jets and Vikings, and ultimately I think the Vikings sign him. BUT, if they could make the decision that Keenum got them to the NFL championship at 2/3rd the cost.

Re: Redskins don't plan on third straight franchise tag for Kirk Cousins

The typical window to win a SB is 3-4 years, the Vikings are built to win right now. They’re in a spot where they should be pushing all of their chips to the middle of the table, not trying to save $10M. If the offer is 3 years $90M fully guaranteed I can’t see how Kirk passes that up.
