What is this Cousins talk? We need a young capable backup, and for the med to long term as well. RGIII is all that, but he is also one massive hit to the knee from maybe calling it a career or just being injury prone. Also, with the my aforementioned post about Kolb and Cassell being overrated busts, that were made hot for just a few games of work, might have teams cool on Cousins. Cousins didn't even get a full 2 games in.

Skins fans hate having two good players in one position.
Fans can dream all they want, fact is Cousins isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

Then Griffin goes down, we have no backup, and we have a top 5 pick the next year. yes, the possibilities are endless.
of course neither of these scenarios are probable.
But St Louis gets that pick anyway so that is a useless pick, and Cousins goes to the playoffs and we get a pick between 20-32. Yay..

It's not that I want to see cousins traded as much as I see a young quality backup QB as an asset. If we didn't have holes in the secondary I would think twice. That and I don't want to have to pay him once he's off his rookie contract. I would rather trade him sooner and fill a hole instead of keeping him and watching him leave for nothing.
Also, I know I'll get killed for this. But I don't mind grossman as a backup for the next two years. I know we won't set the world on fire with him, but he's capable.
Grossman over Cousins? Yeah you are gonna get killed and probably rightfully so.

You gotta keep Cousins. We get more mileage out of him while we build his trade value.

Not so much grossman over cousins as much as grossman and picks over cousins.
