greenwave81 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 If Cousins absolutely wants a deal with a likely or potential 3 yr out, I want no part of him...not at the money he's looking for. To me, he's either 'all in' for at least 5 yrs or he can take a hike. Hell, I'd rather trade my 2nd #2 or 3rd roundDP for Foles, and sit at #6, taking a QB if one is still there to compete/develop, than give Cousins a 3 yr deal. And I want NO PART OF McCOWN part deux. Screw him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YetiHigh5! Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Yeah, I don't like Cousins for a three-year deal. I think he's dumb if he pursues that. His interest will never be higher than it is now. He should get inked to a 5-year deal - wherever he goes. Supposedly his sister lives in Phoenix (hence talk of the Cardinals). I guess we'll see....

Now the choice is to overpay someone that to date is a questionable franchise QB who wants a short-term deal or trade the better part of this draft and possibly nexts to get the QB of their choice...which on a team with as many holes on the roster as we have isn't a great situation either. Petty and Hack should have played last year...all year...and either progressed, or secured us the top pick this year. The only the Jets should have paid McCown for last year was QB coach and emergency #3. Only WE could f*ck this up. I can’t believe that approach was an idea that MacBowles had. I think the Johnsons drove that to sell more tickets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thai Jet Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 2 hours ago, bla bla bla said: I'm so torn on Cousins. I'd love to get him but I really hope Macc doesn't budge on a 5 year deal. If it's anything shorter than a 5 year deal I'd prefer a rookie. There is just so much excitement that comes with a rookie QB. I kinda hope he goes to Denver/Minnesota just so we have a reason get one. I hear what your saying and know how you feel . I'm excited about getting one of the top 4 QB's in the draft. Any of them. If we had the 3rd or 4th pick I wouldn't cre about Cousins as much. But we don't. Ideally I'd like us to have a viable FA QB signed BEFORE the draft. I DON'T want to give up extra picks just to move up a few spots to guarantee a top 4 QB in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Walrus Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Feels a bit like a dance to me. Cousins tags the Jets to up the price to the Vikings. Vikings enquire about Brees to put a shot across the bow of Cousins. It will have to be a hell of a sell to get him here. And I wonder how much I want a guy I have to sell to that hard.

What team signs a franchise QB for 4 years and then drafts a QB in the top 6 that will, if everything goes well, sit on the bench for half a decade? GMs aren't tasked with building a team for the next GM. Cousins will be brought in to win a SB in the next 4 years. If things fail, they will be back in the top 10 and the next GM can pick the next QB flavor of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need a QB in this draft. The idea that we run with him for four years, and if we fail get a top ten pick is oversimplification. Reality is, he may just be real middle of the road, mid draft type of a team. That is the absolute worst case scenario. And a very real scenario if we bring in a 30 yr old, mediocre, hasn't won anything meaningful qb that the Washington Sucks At Football Redskins just let walk away for nothing.
