Eh it's a massive need though and will be one of the top ranked players there. He's being regarded as well as Haloti Ngata was
He's on punt coverage for Washington....when the fuck was the last time a NT was on punt coverage. Made the tackle too
He's probably going to walk away from us. Man it's gonna suck having a shit qb...I'm not sure that's total worse than having a slightly above average QB for 27mm a year
A meaningless win today would've given us 3 straight season non-losing seasons. The last time that happened was like 99-01. Fire up a bionic leg for Teddy Bridgewater
I'm it sure why there was a rush to extend him immediately and give him so much guaranteed. He's fucking 33
Don't want to pay Kirk? Fine, but why trade a pick and extend a 33 y/o who's not the answer. Just should have started over at this point. We're not any better with Alex Smith. Draft a QB and maybe be competitive in a few years.
I could understand getting him as a 1 year stop gap maybe extend him for another year or 2 after the 18 season. Why the fuck are we giving him 18 + 3 years? He'll be 37
That's what I thought they were doing at first. One year left on his deal, draft a QB this year then he takes over in 2019. Then they extended Smith. No clue.
It's not Kendall Fuller guys chill. Can we please stop posting like disgruntled vaginas in our team thread? It's getting old. Yeah Snyder sucks, but other shit tier owners have won Super Bowls.. the negativity by our fan base is depressing.
This a message board right? I get that shit on our team board too. Where you want me to vent my frustrations? You want me to be positive about this move? It’s fucking Alex Smith.
I agree with this. I also would rather have him for the money he got than give Cousins 30+ million a year. Not to mention whoever signs Cousins gives us a 3rd round pick so it replaces the one we just lost.
Do you all honestly think we are better with Alex Smith? Let Kirk walk, draft a QB and gain a comp 3rd Not give up a pick and a player.
Cousins didn’t want to be in Washington and frankly was overpaid for his performance last year and it was only going to get worse. He’s not elite. You got a QB who has been to the playoffs 5 of the last 6 years he was the full time starter. To me, this is like Carson Palmer to the Cardinals at a similar age. I think Smith is better than Palmer was at that point but the Cardinals won a lot of games the first few years. This has the potential if the players around him are good.
Giving up Fuller is complete fucking bullshit. As good as any player we had this year in his 2nd year and gave him up, this is reason #1 I never get too deep into this shitty franchise
Might be the last straw for me. Can’t believe they sent Fuller in this deal. I’m guessing this is probably the same deal they were offering Cousins that he wouldn’t sign.
I can't believe we included Fuller. What the fuck is wrong with this fucking franchise and front office. I could live with the pick/contract....but a 3rd year player that was a beast last year??? WTF
106.7 beat reporter is saying it’s only 40 guaranteed and the team can cut him after year 2 of the deal. The other 30 mil is a roster bonus only if he’s on the team. That’s better but still outraged over Fuller.
Yikes, Skins are in fucking ruins. Don't wanna pay Cousins, so we'll trade assets and pay a worse and older QB. Makes sense. Either way they were fucked. Cousins ain't worth like $25M per season. He's a very nice QB, but not a franchise guy. Tough spot to be in.
Assume he was gonna get a chance outside with Breeland leaving. When you have like 8 good players, get pissed when one of them leaves. Especially when he's on a rookie contract, why not just give them another pick rather than a pick you already nailed.

52+ in cap space. 2019 comp picks third for cousins, could get a couple other late ones depending on who leaves
Either overthecap.com or spotrac.com for cap numbers and dead money if cut. Think we only get a 3rd round comp pick if we don't sign someone of equal value
