Cousins is better for teams ready to compete for 10 win seasons. He's a bit like Tyrod+. He is capable of winning a few games if your supporting cast is very good. He
isn't capable of elevating a team to another level like Deshaun Watson did with Texans.
And right now we don't have the supporting cast, after Brandon Beane & McDermott started giving away our young talented players to other teams for nothing. We are left with a bunch of old guys ready to retire in a year or two. And we gotta replace them too! This wasn't a rebuild job. This was a frickin ruin the franchise job. We're crap again after their gifts to other teams. and now we gotta build talent back up again. Just draft a good young QB along with getting better coaching staff.
After seeing the way their hires have performed, I am now skeptical of the judgement of McDermott and Beane. Their ability to evaluate and distinguish talent. They have not shown that they have made good decisions in so many instances. It began with coaching hires. And came the idiotic trades. And mid-season benching that didn't have team support. Kelvin Benjamin was a "my bad" let me make it up to you trade by Beane. It's like bringing flowers to your wife after she found out you've been cheating on her all along.
Cousins will only add to frustrations. Yes team will be better, but he won't bring us more wins. Just keep drafting till we find one.
