Cousins has arrived

Schneed, thanks for posting the QB salaries and commenting on where Kirk fits among them. I found it very informative.

As you pointed out, $17-18MM per season feels like the range where this deal gets done. He might get a little more but, as ethat pointed out, if he does it's not going to kill our salary cap number.

I think Kirk is probably craving respect as an NFL QB. With that in mind, I think it might be meaningful to him if his contract exceeds, even if by only a little, the $16.5MM the Skins threw away on RGIII's contract this past season. That's just human nature.

Whenever I think of an NFL QB who compares to Kirk, I think first of Alex Smith. IMO, Kirk is a more accurate passer than Smith but Smith is a better athlete and more experienced than Kirk. I think it's close between the two of them.

Whenever I think of what Kirk can become as an NFL QB, I think of Andy Dalton. Perhaps it's just the association with Jay Gruden that causes me to think that way, but that's what I envision for Kirk.


Just a reminder: the Skins did not, in fact, "throw away" 16.5 million on RG3 this year. This was his last year on the rookie contract... Just sayin.

Sign him at all costs. We have a full compliment of our own draft picks, and QB is waaaay too important to mess around with. Im not risking what we have going on here for a few million either way.

well said.

Kirk has shown enough growth in just this past year to warrant the long term commitment.

I have faith in the new stewardship running the organization...it will get done & will be fair for both sides.

Then we can start focusing on adding the other cast members around him.

Cant wait till next October.
I'm going to start a "Cousins has settled in" thread.

^^ another really good film breakdown from wapo mark bullock. while he picks select samples, it shows cousins progressing as the season went on in terms of mechanics, not staring down receivers and calling audibles and complete plays from the LOS.

these type of film breakdown articles are really good imo. a real nice new addition for the following fan.
