Don't buy it at all. I think the Skins would gladly swap 1sts for Cousins. For that reason, I thinking Shanny would rather grab his franchise QB and still draft at #17. We'd probably grab extra picks in the process too.
Drafting a QB at #2 doesn't make sense with Cousins expected to be on our roster next NLT season.
You really think so? I'm not saying they aren't, but it's crazy to think they'd essentially hit the reset button on what they've been building over there. That kind of trade could affect careers. Also, if the Redksins truly were open to it, I think the trade would have already happened. If they were willing, they could have easily have offered up Kirk Cousins for that swap. They haven't and I think they are just simply being cheap, not wanting to dole out a huge contract to Cousins. From the 49ers perspective, if the 'Skins did make that offer, I'd try to get more out of them (our #2 overall for Kirk Cousins, #17, and #49). The Redksins as a franchise don't value draft picks anyway lol.
