Yeah, transition tag is my preference too. Then I'd hope we didn't match the offer. Get extra picks and get a cheap QB for next 5 years while we build the rest of the team.

If we let Kirk go, we need to draft a guy 1st pick. If not then you are just getting worse

I agree, all things considered Cousins is around a the #10 NFL QB, problem is someone will throw elite money at him because they are desperate. Overpaying for players can come back to bite you. When it comes to NFL free agents what they make is all about timing, and Kirk will hit the jackpot.

Re: Looking at the draft.

Now that Jay Gruden essentially fired himself by quitting at the end of the Chargers game and then admitting it, there is no reason to hold onto Kirk Cousins. We should have a new HC soon and we probably won't be in a position to win for at least a couple more years.

Josh Norman should probably be traded to a contender for draft picks. It would be good for us and for him, too, under the circumstances.

I agree. I'd go for BPA at QB with 1st pick we have, and a RB in the 1st couple picks too. Then a whole lot of defense and a LG somewhere.

I don't think they have such a thing as a sign and trade in football, not to mention you cant trade a guy who isnt under contract which Kirk isnt

Re: Looking at the draft.

If Kirk plays out the way he did Sunday, I don't think he will garner much trade interest. In fact, him doing so badly will bring the amount he gets down, way down. He is exposing himself as to what he truly is at this point. 3-4 weeks ago, all the pundits were pay the man, now he is a big question mark. He isn't worth $25 million, especially since he has nothing to work with. By the time you gave him the proper tools he needs to succeed, he will be up for renewal again. Face it, the roster overall is junk.

Looking at the draft.

Cousins would draw plenty of interest on the open market. His value is not going to swing wildly based on a couple of games in an injury riddled and now lost season. Just stop.

I agree that KC's will draw a lot of interest and that's because he is by far the best QB that will be available and a few games at the end of this disaster of a season dont matter. IMO what could impact his value is the quantity of the other QBs available.

Re: Looking at the draft.

Per AD:

Washington safety Su’a Cravens has received medical clearance to resume all football activities and plans to play next season, per his agent @fadde.

We’ll see where he ends up. I say Rams.

I think he drops to the low end of the Franchise tag value, He still will get money, but this is two Decembers in a row where with the playoffs on the line his play has noticeably dropped.

Yes there are other circumstances, and yes a qb hungry team will pay $25-28Million, but if he's thinking about $30-32 million, I don't think a team can justify that.

Yop he's still listed on the roster, in the "reserve/leftsquad" section. I'm guessing if he comes back he has to come back here.

He’s still under contract so barring a release or trade he’ll be back.
