Ya probably. I just read the article this morning... Report: Broncos 'all-in' on pursuing Cousins https://www.thescore.com/nfl/news/1496447
Just like the Jets are all-in as well. Point is, don't read too much into anything until Cousins can actually start meeting with teams. You're gonna drive yourself nuts.
Look at the Broncos roster, who they have to release to free up $40-50 million . The holes they have, the bigger holes they need to create to sign Cousins. For what? A slim chance to compete in 2018 before beginning a rebuild? I said it before. Cousins will sign a short term deal with Denver if he goes there. That will allow him a short window to get to the playoffs , then he will get an even bigger contract when he hits Free agency again.
Agreed, Denver is not the best destination for Cousins. I'd put them 3rd at best in the running. Minnesota is the ideal situation to win, and the Jets can offer the most $. I think it will come down to those two teams, with Minnesota being the more likely landing spot.
I fully support this. As much as Cousins is appealing, I want a team not named Minnesota to sign him, to increase our chance of drafting our guy.
I agree , the Vikings have the most attractive roster by far. They will have to back loading his contract though. Too many players due big money next season . In the end I think it will all come down to money. Denver can pay him for 2 years, allowing him the ability to hit the market again at 32. The Vikings can pay him after 2 years but he assumes the risk of being released before the big money comes due. The Jets can structure a deal to make him happy immediately and in the future but can they sell him on their vision of the rebuild?
Okay guys. Let's continue on Kirk Cousins mega thread. I am locking this one. I don't want to merge it with Kirk thread because if I do, we will lose the voting count. So far it is 60% in favor of signing Kirk.
