Maury Ballstein Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Are you serious? You want to trade a 2nd rounder for a 3rd rounder before he has done anything? Anything at all? Have you ever seen fitz ? if he flops bills r done So yea I'd love to have him as backup. If he plays well again grab him, Defense is set. Can draft Qb WR next year also.

Bangarang Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Cousins threw 3 td's by the way it was way more than just an ok performance.......I feel bills would have scooped him up if he fell a little further.........I would be in on a trade for him....TJ Graham wouldn't neccesarily need to be involved........ a 2nd rounder or throw in a player a la Kelsay etc if skins love any of them.....maybe something along those lines perhaps. LOL of course there would be someone who would want to trade a 2nd rounder for a rookie QB playing in only his 2nd pre-season game. Have you been following Redskins practices? Is he doing well there too? Did you watch him against us the first week? He didn't look good at all then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Hindsight Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I firmly believe that Kirk will produce if given the Chance. -Kid has a lot of heart, and a strong arm. If, heaven forbid, RG3 goes down early in the season, you couldn't ask for a better insurance policy than Kirk Cousins. Seeing as how Shanny sees Rex Grossman as his insurance policy... maybe you could Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 He looked somewhat poised vs buff. He should be decent......time will tell the story. Qb somewhere will be hurt and we will see cousins play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Linen Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 You're the one being unjustifiably firm. -About REX GROSSMAN of all people! For now, Rex is the backup. But some feel that he's had more than enough chances to prove himself in the NFL. Let's see what Shannahan and the depth chart says in early september. Um how often do rookie 3rd round draft picks supplant a veteran as a backup? I'm not firm, I'm right. You clearly don't understand the role of the backup QB position in the NFL.

Leavin buff in a position they don't need to be in with another journeyman backup at the helm. Take a chance sometime on one of these qb's and good things can happen.

bouds Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Cousins looked like **** against the Bills. Played well yesterday though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Jose Bills Fan Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'm not in favor of trading a 2nd rounder for him but I don't think Cousins looked bad against the Bills at all… for a guy in his first NFL game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I love Fitzy and I really liked Kirk Cousins leading into the draft. HE is a good size for a QB, 33 on the wonderlic, 40 plus starts in college, 65% completition percentage, won some big games. Concerns were he had a noodle arm, and threw too many screens, Some "experts" opined concern that he was a "system QB" even if that system was pro style. Also worried that he wasn't athletic enough to escape a pass rush. I know its preseason but he looked great again. TJ Graham looks good too. Redskins need some WR help, Bills need a development QB. What would you do if the Bills and skins swapped prospects? Not now, as much as we need a QB we need better WRs too. Next year we really to address the QB position be it first round or high round projects like Osweiler or Mallett. Back to WR, I wish we drafted Megatron Jr. (Stephon Hill) in the second and picked up Brandon Mosely (Giants) and Nate Potter (Cardinals) in the latter rounds.

mousetrap08 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I'd give them Torell Troup and a bag of used footballs. Why that much? Even used footballs has some sort of value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo Barbarian Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Be patient...the 2013 draft will be here in 249 days. 2013 QB's, in order I see you Have Casey Pachall on the list, if this kid comes out we should be all over him, Big arm clutch QB with athleticism :thumbsup: . He will go first round for sure, hopefully he doesn't pull an RG3 and shoot up the boards but come under the radar where we can get him mid first round, trade up if necessary.

billsfan89 Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 No way they make this deal this year. If they really like Cousins they will offer a pick in next years draft (Which at that point wouldn't you just draft a QB you like in next years draft?). Right now we need all the help we can get at WR and TJ is showing up this pre-season so its a greater sense of urgency to keep TJ as we don't have much at WR outside of Stevie and Nelson.

You can take a chance on a QB, but you don't trade 2nd round picks for 3rd round picks. Who is this 2nd round pick you keep talking about? Ryan L Billz wants to trade a 2nd round pick for Cousins. Also, I'm incorrect, Cousins was drafted in the 4th round. So before he ever has played a game or had one play in the NFL...he wants to give Washington a 2nd round pick. That is not how you built a team. Edited August 20, 2012 by jeremy2020 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maury Ballstein Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 (edited) Well make it a third then mr gm..........just watched colts game wouldn't be surprised if they take off over 1 player an amazing qb named luck who is light years ahead of our qb.....qb is a dire need.....let the draft picks fly......god forbid we miss out on another torrell troup or mccargo type stud with that 2nd or 3rd round pick.... The time is now....12 years of losing is good enough........good qb's win....... Edited August 20, 2012 by Ryan L Billz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
