Scot won't let Kirk walk if he has a Good year again and we finish solid. He's not an idiot, who else will be out there?? Romo? Lol I mean nobody to even look at and we won't have a top 5 pick
Kirk just needs to get a few Goodyears from his station, Kirk's Good years (https://www.goodyear.com/en-US/tire-shop/Bergenfield+NJ+07621+US/000174912)
lousy pun i know

Good post. Thanks for sharing the article. I think the percentage for Cousins leaving is too low, IMO. I would say right now its probably at least 65% or 75%, realistically. I just dont see a scenario where Cousins stays here, unless we win more than 8 games, which may or may not happen...
And you would be way off. 35% is probably right where its at. You have nobody to replace him with. You won't draft a rookie and throw him in there game 1. You don't regress as a coaching staff. Gruden will not bring in a journeyman QB. Suffield is my anywhere near ready to play, McCoy would be regressing.
You play to win. You build your team to win every game. Kirk is the best chance we have at doing that. 13-9 as the starter since taking over.

It comes down to McCloughan's comment at one point where he said something along the lines of feeling that its foolish to pay one player that much money which will end up hurting the team because they can't use the money to build the team.
Make no mistake I think he is playing for his next team in 2017. I hate to see him go because he seems like a such a good guy and a good team mate, but we are still the Redskins and we may "redskin" our quarterback situation..
He said he wouldn't break the bank for one player. Which giving Kirk 18-20 million would not be breaking the bank. Especially if he plans to draft more defensive players and not pay Garcon/Djax.
19 million would be very close to 12% of the cap at the QB position. Which is about league average.
Also people need to remember the cap is going up every year. Pretty soon 19 million for a QB is going to be standard.

I think it's less than 10% chance he leaves.
The only scenario where i see him leaving is if we go 8 - 8 and he wants 25+ million and year.

Reed locked up
Kerrigan locked up
Norman locked up
Trent locked up
North big contracts issues coming up next year outside Kirks. We have 20 million in cap space, and after Djax/Garcon contracts are gone we will have even more.
To think we can't pay Kirk an average of 18 or 19 million a year and build a defense with the extra 25 million left over is ludicrous.
Oh, and I already mentioned. The cap is going up.

Who says we are getting rid of Djax and Garçon? Both? No way.

Why not cut Ryan Grant or Rashad Ross and keep Djax and Garçon?

Because you have to actually pay them next year. Could be atleast 10 million in cap for the both
