There are always plenty of teams in need of a QB. I don't think his play this year hurt his value in the long run at all. All it takes is one team and with Kyle in Cleveland they could be that team if he feels strongly enough about Cousins.
It takes more than one team to drive the price up. If there is only one bidder the price will stay low. Alex Smith went for a 2nd rounder and a conditional pick after having a passer rating over 100 in the season before he was traded. Considering that how could anyone think Cousins is worth as high as a second?
Cousins was great in two 2012 starts, he was terrible in 2013, your last impression is what counts.

The Saints should try to get Kirk. Let him learn under Drew Brees for 3 years, then let him take over. He is not ready to start IMO.

Is Kurt Cousins irreplacable? Is someone gives us a 3rd and 6th, peace!

Tend to agree, they might be able to swing a 3rd. I would keep him as insurance for another year and trade him next year for whatever they can get.
there will be no trade value after this upcoming season for KC. He'll be in the fourth yr of his deal. With a fourth rd pick there may not be a team option for the fifth yr., wait a yr and he's a FA or restricted FA, giving no bargaining power to the team.

Bye Kirk, see ya. We can easily find a back up QB.

What warrants that type of investment in Kirk?

if you can only get a 4th, you sit on him. no point in doing that.

This has Shanny leak written all over it.
Kyle gets the Browns OC job and all of a sudden Kirk is open to a trade?? Even Cousins' reps had to put out a statement saying he had not requested a trade from the Redskins.
I'm open to trading Cousins, but what ever the market price, I would charge double to the Browns. Fck Kyle Shanahan.
I think this "news" is nothing more than people putting 2 + 2 together. Unless Kyle got a job where there was already an established starter, there was bound to be Cousins trade rumors.
Kirk has always been open to going wherever he can play.

Also this "news" that Cousins is open to a trade is not groundbreaking. Would anyone be surprised to hear that he might want to go someplace where he might start?
