POLL Kirk Cousins

[jarntt]

you just got done saying KC was average now you say he is a franchise QB. Which one is it?

Average for the rest of the NFL. Franchise when compared to Redskins QBs

that is why this deal is taking so long. Not dealing with Aaron Rodgers here.

It's taking so long because you guys couldn't make up your mind and played this like amateurs. You had the guy long enough to know what you had. You should have already made your long term decision and offered him "fair money" (or decided to let him go)...which for any QB worth his salt means "way too much money" because that is how the NFL works. But instead you keep playing it day to day while not putting a backup plan in place and just pissing him off and giving him more and more leverage in the matter as each day turns. This likely goes down as costing the Redskins a shit load of money to end up with the guy they could have had for a lot less, or left out in the cold with no QB and no QB of the future this time next year. Regardless of how you spin it the Skins screwed this up unless the plan is to let him go after this year. But even if that is the plan I would wonder why they don't seem to be planning for that.

I like Cousins and in retrospect I think you should have given him a big deal a long time ago. But now I think you will probably have to pay him like he IS Aaron Rodgers to keep him.

2 years of starting is long enough? Im sure a LTD will be offered to him before 7/15. Its up to KC if he accepts it or not. If KC declines a fair deal now then How can you lay the blame on the Redskins?

dude learn to read or get some insight, i said the skins were average with him, implying the suck without him, don't be so thick

that's pretty harsh. Do you don't like Pryor?

 

[SteelersPride]

do you don't?

i like him. it's one guy, but most skins fans say he's the third or fourth option

 

[deanpet21]

do you don't?

i like him. it's one guy, but most skins fans say he's the third or fourth option

lol. 3rd or 4th option? He is our #1 WR. Now I know you are nuts.

 

[Hank Kingsley]

Just about your only wide receiver. Plan A, B and C.

crowder, reed will draw more targets than pryor

Of course it is. It's the NFL. You have teams committing their future to draft picks that never played a down or guys that started way fewer games than Cousins. That's why they pay GMs and scouts to make decisions instead of owners and fans

 

[deanpet21]

possible but Pryor should lead the team in yards and Td's. This guy is a monster. Very excited about Pryor.

Should be, that was a great add

Fine he is now completed his 2nd year of starting an a LTD will be offered by 7/15. So its up to KC to accept or not. you didn't answer my question on how is it the Redskin fault if KC turns down a fair offer right now.

I like Crowder a lot. Reed will be awesome as usually for a few weeks and then spend the rest of the year day to day with an injury. I like Pryor too. But, not completely sold on him yet.

the way steelerspride put it was that he didn't think Pryor mattered. that is bullshit.

It's up to him if they offer him at least market value. They've already screwed up so now it is going to cost them even more. Remember Mike Glennon got $15M and Osweiller much more. you need to be WAY above those numbers or he's gone because he knows someone will give it to him.

I agree with you. But let say the Luck deal was offered to KC right now I bet he turns it down b/c he wants to hit FA. Just my opinion.

i like Pryor he is one of those physical freak type guys we see all over the league now. But I think he benefited a little by everyone else in Cle sucking. We will get a better read on how good he is this year. I thought Wash got him for a steal so obviously a lot of teams had concerns

 

[jarntt]

IMO If he turns that down it would be because the Redskins pissed him off in the past and he is done with them.
