That would be insane. If Cousins really wants to leave DC, they have little negotiating leverage. Franchising him will cost $35 million, and a transition means no draft picks in return. Their only choices are to start a bidding war and hopefully land a 2nd rounder (a la Alex Smith trade) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say they have almost none. The Redskins have to make the first move. They either tag him or let him go. Cousins and his agent can just sit. I'm pretty sure Cousins does not want to play for them but if they tag him................ Hell yes he will play for 35 million. If the Redskins want to trade Cousins, he doesn't have to make a long term deal.............. He can play under the tag for 35 Million with the new team. Who is going to trade picks/players and pay 35 million? This is uncharted territory and Redskins don't have a play. Not that I want Cousins................... I'd rather have Alex Smith for 1 year while our 1st round QB learns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bunch of white lines and a big logo on the 50. Source or it's not happening. 3 hours ago, Dunkirk Don said: Cousins would have to agree to a long term deal or no trade. More to come on this in the next week. We have yet to confirm trade package. Only one confirmation to date. Sorry, but this is illogical. Why would he agree to sign an extension and be traded, effectively removing the option for him to run up his price and chose his team? He can't be traded until March 14, the first day of the new league year, which is the day he would become a FA anyway. To keep him, the Redskins would have to PAY the man or tag him - the transition tag next year would be $28,732,320 and the franchise tag $34,478,784 (per Schefter).

All,I can say it will be Costly. People here will roast me if I am not specific. We have the deal but we want one more source to confirm it. Will get another batch of emails soon Let me make a quick call and see if he had a chance to confirm If this is real, I hope your posts don't screw it up for us.

Cousins has all the leverage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
