Are you pessimistic about their chances to resign him? If so, why?

I'm not necessarily pessimistic. It probably makes sense for both sides to get a deal done. However, a lot can occur between now and then, and who knows what other teams may offer him, and what DS is willing to pay him. I'm just saying it is not a guarantee that it happens. I am hopeful it does though.

If McCloughan wants to resign Cousins I cant see Snyder standing in the way. He's never been one to cheap skate on player salaries

I agree. However, we can't assume that Cousins is going to accept the offer, whatever it may be, or that he even wants to remain here...
