Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Maybe since Dallas passed on JF, that means they are considering a trade for KC?

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Sounds like Mallett is off the trade block.

Here's why Houston could be in play..
1. They need a QB. They have Case Keenum, Ryan Fitzpatrick and TJ Yates on the roster right now. John Beck looks at them and giggles a bit.
2. Matt Cassell is the Vikings starting QB, they aren't going to trade him at this point. No way you can invest 7 first round picks over 3 years and go into the season with Christian Ponder and Teddy Bridgewater.
3. Mallett is off the block (reportedly) so the #1 available QB for trade is Cousins.
*EDIT* 4. No way in hell they draft David Carr's little brother. PR disaster whenever he makes a poor play/decision.

Stay or go, I don't care either way because McCoy is pretty much the same QB as Cousins, only older and with more experience. If Houston is willing to give up the 1st pick of the 3rd round for Cousins, see ya dude.

I'm not dead but this team is dead to me...but now that McCloughan is here they may have new life!

Jay Gruden = Zorny McSpurrier

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Houston needs a QB, Cousins is available. Pretty simple if you ask me why they might have interest.

Fine. Cousins to Houston. It's be cool to have the first two picks of the second or third round. Make the deal Houston!

Technically RG3 isn't "solid enough". Until he plays a full season healthy, we better have somebody good to back him up. Any ideas?

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Didn't RG3 survive 13 starts while recovering from injury last year?

That said KC is certainly solid enough.

Still pulling my hair out over benching RG3 at the end, rather than at the start, of last season.

RG3's a warrior, I just cringe when I see him scrambling, like the talking heads on TV cringe when they see him running the read option. One hit by someone like Ngata even when he's down, and it may be over.

Can't believe RG3 doesn't have more protection aka Brady or Peyton. He gets hit, got straight up kicked in the jewels by Aldon Smith last season, for no penalty. Type cast as a "running QB" whether we read option or not, I fear it'll be open season on him again this season.

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

I think it's fair to say now (probably months ago) that the market for Cousins is not where the Skins wanted it. At least not to trade him at this point.

Unless we trade him today for Houston' first pick in Rd. 4. There are plenty of good picks here, and the top two picks would be awesome.

Yeah, I could support that. We need the depth, Kirk wants a chance to play, and we have Colt now, and I'm into the draft. Sure, why not?

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Well the Eagles have the Texans first pick in round 4 so that isnt happening.

Re: Cousins Open to Trade.

Stick a fork in it, a Cousins deal isn't happening unless someone offers a 2nd next year.

Not for nothing but as a Skins fan I am more than happy having the guy around until Griff gives me one healthy season. Cannot say the same about Colt friggin Mccoy. I wish KC could have a chance to start, but As a fan of the team Im more than comfortable with no deal getting done.
