Multiple #NFL sources are pegging the free agent contract of #Bucs QB Mike Glennon as expected to land between $14-$15 million per season.
If true, KC should get $30 million per season

A lot of money for mere potential.

I remember Abe Pollin sending Scott Stevens to the New Jersey Devils because he did not think any NHL defenseman was worth $1 Million a year. What a mistake that was!
Why do I have the feeling that history is repeating itself here? Looking at past salaries and deals, especially for QBs, is no indicator of present market value. The Mike Glennon deal is telling you that the QB market appears to be taking a big leap. And with the salary cap rising, maybe it should be...

A not insignificant factor: a pregnant woman's relationship with her OB. You fathers know what I'm talking about. She's really not going to want to move between now and September.
Most important factor for them? No, but not to be overlooked. There are plenty of reasons why it's clear they want to be in DC.

It seems like it was so long ago that my wife was pregnant (even though it hasn't been that long ago), but I will say, that is something to consider. At the same time, probably nothing that would be the ultimate reason for staying in Washington. Kirk is a multimillionaire, so he can afford to hook her up with the best Ob in the country (or at least state of California) if they were to leave for San Fran.

I have actually heard some good things about Mike Glennon. It was said the only reason why he lost his starting job with the Bucs was because he was being replaced by a #1 draft pick. Still, $14M for Mike Glennon is outrageous!

Just general stability as a new parent, plus having his and her family relatively close

Kirk Cousins seems to be the type of guy who would be cognizant about such details. Maybe it does factor in his decision a bit? I would also think a dollar goes further around areas like NoVA than it would in San Fran.

This is why Kirk demands big money. When potential is paying out big money, proven gets more money.

I actually see the extension for Gruden as a good sign for a Cousins long term deal. The two are tied to the hip and I would think that was part of Grudens deal. "I will sign long term but I want my guy here"

Hopefully that is a factor. My prediction is by mid-season, we'll be looking back on this past off season and laughing at all of the stuff that went down, and we'll have our coach for another couple years, our quarterback signed for the next several years, Doctson playing great, maybe another receiver drafted or signed that's playing great, and McCloughan back in business.
