I don't know why anyone wants cousins for the money he's going to get. What does it say when your own team doesn't want to give you a long term contract and they trade for alex smith to replace you? And they see the guy every day. The guy should be in the prime of his career and the redskins pass on giving him long term deals every single season. This is someone we want to be stuck with eating up cap for the next 4 or 5 years as we go 8-8 season after season? Pray he goes to denver. Dan Snyder is the same fuckhead who gave a notoriously lazy interior DL like Haynesworth a $100 million contract when that was unheard of for any position besides QB but won’t commit to the guy behind center who has thrown for over 4,000 yards, 25+ TD’s and completed 67% of his passes over the last 3 years. Who can explain how his goofy brain works? BTW, the Redskins just gave 34 year old, supreme gamemanager Alex Smith a 4 year extension averaging $24 million a year with $70 million guaranteed. They’re a bunch of dildos. Plain and simple. Captain Kirk, you’re free to beam aboard. I never liked cousins, but it says a lot to me that they're giving that much money to alex smith and passing on the guy they've drafted and knows the system. Snyder might be a putz, but gruden knows offense. Teams don't pass on their own qb's in their prime and that's what the redskins are doing. Big red flag. Neil O'donnell all over again. Definitely never winning a super bowl with him. Might not even ever win a playoff game. Just more of the same old jets if we get this guy.

The Redskins have been dicking him around for 3 years. The guy has kept quiet, kept signing the franchise tag and betting on himself, and has repeatedly come out on the winning end. Like I said, the guy has thrown for over 4,000 yards, 25+ TD’s and completed 67% of his passes over the last 3 seasons. He did it this year with 6 different starting combinations along the OL, Jordan Reed missing the majority of the season, and a shit defense backing him up that was abysmal late in games. I’d take him in a heartbeat. The Redskins being a bunch of incompetent dickholes doesn’t dissuade me from that.

Out of curiosity, if you had the choice of darnold, rosen, or cousins, who are you taking and in what order?

Rosen Rosen is built like a damn beanstalk and already has a surgically repaired right shoulder and suffered two concussions in 2017 alone. And to top it off, his dad is a goddamn neurosurgeon. One more blow to the head and that whiny asshole is liable to walk away from the game for good. I’d be skeptical as hell about drafting him.

Cousins is not coming to Jets. If you read what he said, there is no fuckin way he comes here. He's going to a "winner" most likely that is Denver. It sure as shit aint the fuckin loser ass Jets. He even said money isn't the most important thing, he wants to win... Oh and he "wishes" Gates "well"
He aint coming here no fuckin way. We will have choices and will pick THE wrong QB in draft while McCown tries to complete his first season ever.
CAN'T WAIT!!!!

“And it is fair to be concerned that Cousins' passer rating dropped from 2015 (his first full season as Washington's starter) to 2016 and then again from 2016 to 2017 and that his numbers plummeted during this season—from September (105.3 rating) to October (102.0) to November (94.6) to December (75.0). Free-agent departures and injuries surely played a role, but it's also possible the flawed 2012 fourth-round pick has already reached the summit of his career.”
Overpay for a used dildo on the downside? No thanks.

No thanks. Cousins' worst year as a full-time starter is still better than any year that any QB for this team has had since the merger. The only competition for that would be Vinny in '98 and Penny in '02. And Cousins did it with talent on the outside that might actually be worse than what the Jets trotted out this year.
I really everybody wants the shiny new toy, and yeah, of course it would be nice to have a true franchise QB that stays for 15 years or more. I just don't see why so many people are down on Cousins as if he wouldn't immediately be the best QB this team has had in half a century. Especially when we know that a top QB (or 2, or 3) will be off the board when the Jets pick, decreasing the odds of making the right choice.

No thanks. You were expecting him to be Brady-esque with a constantly shuffled OL, his top target in the passing game missing 4/5 of the season and being backed up by one of the worst defenses in the league? Guy has been a Top 8 QB statistically ever since he took over as a fulltime starter. But if you trust these goofs to draft the right rookie QB and properly develop said rookie QB...well, more power to you. I’ll take the proven commodity who has already proven to be comfortable in the offense we’re implementing at a time when we have $100+ million to burn in addition to 3 picks in the Top 50 alone. If you sign Cousins, make a couple of other solid moves in FA, and follow it up with a quality draft class...this team turns into a legit playoff contender over night and has a nice nucleus to build on for the next 5+ years.

“Since becoming Washington’s starting quarterback in 2015, Cousins has completed 1,034 of 1,525 attempts (67.8 percent) for 12,121 yards, 73 touchdowns and 29 interceptions. His passer rating of 99.7 over that span ranks fifth among 22 quarterbacks with at least 1,000 pass attempts. Only two future Hall of Famers, Tom Brady and Drew Brees, and the 2016 MVP, Matt Ryan, have a higher total passer rating since 2015. The order changes slightly — Brady, Ryan, Brees, Cousins — if you use adjusted net yards per pass, an updated version of passer rating that has a slightly higher correlation to team wins.
The offensive line, held together with duct tape and glue, ranks 29th this season for pass-blocking ability, per Pro Football Focus, and has seen Cousins pressured on 36.6 percent of his drop-backs in 2017, the highest rate during his three-year run. Yet his passer rating under pressure this season is 81.6, a career high and the sixth-highest in 2017.
And that is despite the Redskins facing the fifth-toughest pass defenses through the first 11 weeks of the season, per Sharp Football Stats.
The high-level performance for Cousins isn’t the result of conservative passes, either. His 42.5 percent completion rate on deep throws, those traveling 20 or more yards in the air, ranks fifth among 27 quarterbacks attempting at least 100 deep throws over the past three years. His passer rating (109.0) on these attempts is second only to Matthew Stafford of the Detroit Lions. And this proficiency down the field isn’t merely the result of having DeSean Jackson on the roster during his first two seasons under center for Washington: Cousins’s completion percentage (40.5 percent) and passer rating (109.7) rank eighth and seventh, respectively, in 2017 with Josh Doctson as his primary deep threat.
Cousins can score with his legs, too, and his 12 rushing touchdowns since 2015 are the third-most at the position behind Cam Newton (19) and Tyrod Taylor (13).
Some will dismiss Cousins’s performance due to a lack of wins relative to his peers, but it is silly to assign quarterbacks wins and losses as if they have total control over the outcome of the game. Instead, it is more instructive to look at how often the passing game scores on each play compared to other offenses in the same situation. For example, with Cousins at the helm, Washington has scored 8.5 points per game more than expected based on each play’s down, distance and field position. Since 2015, only the New England Patriots, Atlanta Falcons, New Orleans Saints and Pittsburgh Steelers have exceeded expectations by more points per game due to their ability to pass the ball.
This season, Washington’s passing attack has scored 5.7 points per game more than expected and, according to ESPN’s Total Quarterback Rating, Cousins is responsible for a vast majority of that (4.9), signifying his high value to the Redskins. Seeing a quarterback account for so much of a team’s offense might be shocking to some, but not only is the quarterback widely considered to be the most important position on the team, Cousins has had to deal with a slew of injuries this season that only made his task tougher: Chris Thompson, Terrelle Pryor, Shaun Lauvao, T.J. Clemmings and Robert Kelley are all on injured reserve, in addition to Trent Williams and Jordan Reed missing significant time. In fact, Washington had to play at the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9 without Williams, Reed and Lauvao in addition to right guard Brandon Scherff, receiver Jamison Crowder, defensive linemen Jonathan Allen and Matt Ioannidis and linebacker Mason Foster … and the Redskins still managed to walk away with a win.”

Get cousins and draft QB. Why does it have to be one or the other? I believe Cousins will only sign somewhere that commits to him they aren’t also taking a QB top 5 or 6. He’s going to want big money so you’re going to have to go all in. Signing him for 5-6 years and then spending the 5th or 6th pick on a QB, while something we fans may dream about, would be an incredible waste of a draft pick. You can’t pay Kirk big money and then say “hey, if he doesn’t workout we’ve got Baker Mayfield in reserve. For 5 years.” Cousins isn’t going to want a top pick QB looking over his shoulder, having a bad game getting booed and have the fan base constantly calling for the high draft pick. If I’m Cousins, and I hold all the cards, I’m getting it in stone that when I sign, that pick is going to help with an Olineman, Barkley or anything OTHER than a QB. _
