I gotta think given the draft and amount of qbs on the market Cousins and his agent probably are praying tag and trade to the Jets as they may be the only team to pay him.

So Cousins is going to file a grievance if he is tagged again. He and his agent claim the point of franchise tag is to workout a long term deal.

It's always good to add a link

Report: Kirk Cousins will file grievance if Redskins attempt to tag him | Yardbarker.com (http://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/report_kirk_cousins_will_file_grievance_if_redskin s_attempt_to_tag_him/s1_12680_25718381)

While the Skins would be stupid to tag him, this report still adds to my perception that teams would look at signing KC as bringing in nothing but headaches. You want a qb that is going to work with your FO, KC hasn't seemed like that at any point in his career.

That said, it only becomes an issue if a team is working with KC's agent and starts to get a feeling he is not being a straight shooter with them. If KC and Denver for example are in contract negotiations, and everything is smooth, then Denver will write off all KC's negotiation faux pas as a Washington thing. BUT if they are negotiating and KC's agent suddenly says that another team wants him more and they need more time or money, I think Denver says he's not worth the headache.

This has turned into that classic Husband/Wife divorce, the whole "I'm gonna fuck u over" type deal. Just let the dude walk man, we have a QB now

Skins would be stupid on many levels if they tag him. He should file a grievance. The point of the tag is to work out a long term deal, the Skins obviously have no intention of that.

They should just come out and say we are not tagging Kirk.

And it gives their trade partner a chance to work out a deal

Sent from my SM-G955W using TapatalkThat would be an admission to violating the franchise tag rules. KC wouldn't need an agent to win that case.

They are arguing the spirit of the rule.
