Where will Kirk Cousins play in 2018?

[oochymp 2,393]

It's never too early for some wild speculation. Cousins did not get a long term deal yesterday, meaning he will officially play under the franchise tag this season then hit free agency (unless Washington tags him again for about $35 million). Say what you want about Cousins, but we haven't seen a QB with his ability hit the market in a long time (the only names that come to mind are Peyton Manning, who was well past his prime, and Drew Brees, who was coming off a major injury nobody was really sure he'd recover from) so he's gonna get paid. The teams in the poll come from an ESPN list (Source) and I think it's a pretty good list of teams with QB issues, but I'm sure there's somebody that's overlooked. But enough preamble, vote!

If he doesn't stay in WAS, I'm feeling ARZ followed by NYJ and SF.

Vikings possibly

I don't see washington keeping him, so I think the major players are the 49ers and Cards. The Jets may be in play as well, since they seem to be dumping a lot of money off of their books.

Money is on SF.

Packers want to work a deal out with Aaron Rodgers so that might just set the (new and temporary) bar

Just quote my post if you wanna bite my style.

If he's smart he goes to SF with Lynch and Shannahan.

Can we just take a moment to share a collective laugh at these two gentlemen?

You know...this could be Big Ben's last season....

[seanbrock 1,684]

Very interesting point, I have to admit. Kyle Shannahan might be in San Fransisco but Antonio Brown and LeVeon Bell are in Pittsburgh lol.

well there's a spot I hadn't considered, will Pittsburgh have the money? If Roethlisberger retires part of his hit will be cleared from the books (think they'll still take a hit for part of his signing bonus) but they just gave Brown a huge contract and may have to do the same for Bell to get him to stick around

[Zack_of_Steel+ 3,014]

I don't think Ben retires, but Kirk would be a damned fine transition. Think he's a douche, but his touch impresses me.

[BJORN 679]

Slightly less money but to play for the Steelers or more money to play for the 49ers/Redskins/Jets.

 

No brainer if you ask me.

I'm really of the opinion the Steelers are going to let Bell walk. He's too injury prone to be worth the kind of money he's asking for.

My dad's a Steelers fan and he thinks this is bens last year dude is 35 and has nothing left to prove .. I also believe James Conner Will be Steelers starting RB next year

[seanbrock 1,684]

That's a tough call. He's one of the best players in the league, forget position. The Steelers can beat anyone when he's playing but he's missed so many games the past couple years with suspension or injury that the risk might just outweigh the reward idk. The Steelers are starting to develop some talent on defense and the offensive line. Might be a better idea to keep them and let Bell walk. If he fails a drug test again he gets hit with a 10 gamer too right?

If Arians got Cousins...
