With Cousins, vibe changed last few months. Before, thought he'd be done in '17 (barring tag). Now? Definite shot at LTD in '18. Stay tuned

 

Rick Snider @Snide_Remarks 3h3 hours ago

Someone reporting Cousins not expected to sign is hardly news. It's click baiting.

JP Finlay Retweeted Adam Schefter

Yep. Best chance for a deal is next winter before tag

JP Finlay added,

Kirk Cousins is not expected to sign a long-term deal by Monday’s deadline, but is open to doing deal with team after season, per source.

 

John KeimVerified account @john_keim 2h2 hours ago

All right the irrational takes are in full force. Good day folks.

 

Rich TandlerVerified account @Rich_TandlerCSN 3h3 hours ago

I’m not sure what will change between now and next January that will convince the Redskins to pay what it takes to keep Cousins. We’ll see.

Until he throws three touchdown passes and they beat the Eagles. Then nobody will care. Until he throws 3 INTs in a game.

Fan reaction to that will almost certainly be 'screw you Cousins'.

Are we all looking forward to another year of Cousins contract situation discussions??

Perhaps. But with all of their expiring/one-year deals they aren’t set up to take a $34 million cap hit next year.

3 franchise tags in a row still adds up to 26 mil a yr. so in the grand scheme of things same price as LTD would be.just not locked in #HTTR

Nice thing about 2018: Transition tag means things will move much quicker. Would guess we'll wrap the whole saga up before the draft.

Redskins are hamstrung with a traitor QB who is focused on $$ and not his team. This is a lost season

As many have said for a while, nothing expected today between KC and the Redskins. Because of the tag, was always a tough spot.

 

John KeimVerified account @john_keim

The only optimism I've heard in last few months involved a changing vibe; that was never going to be enough 4 today. in future? We'll see

 

HapExtremeskins @HapHaszard 15s16 seconds ago

The only thing I can see that would change it next year is if we went deep into the playoffs. I don't even see that happening.

Replying to @john_keim

So many factors will go into how the 2018 offseason plays out and whether an LTD is ever signed. Endless speculation. Fun times.

Evidently but then why pay him $24M for this year? BTW, he's the best QB they've had in 25 years so good luck finding next guy.

Ross Tucker added,

Jordan Matney @J_Mat13
@RossTuckerNFL right, wrong or indifferent the skins don't think Cousins is an elite talent and don't want to pay him 25+ mil a year

#Redskins made their best offer in May. Up from ~$20M/yr in previous offer, but less than $23.9M tag, really only added 1 guaranteed year. https://twitter.com/aroundthenfl/status/886904705141448704

What if Kirk Cousins plays himself out of a mega-deal? Nobody considering that?

The Kirk saga is a stark reminder that we love the team far more than the players do. #redskins

Of all the Dallas Cowboys Ezekiel Elliott is the Dallas Cowboyest

 

 

Al Galdi @AlGaldi 3h3 hours ago

If #Redskins like #KirkCousins enough to pay $44M over 2 yrs & not trade him, how/why do they not like him enough to pay what LTD requires?

Not reliable how? He started 32 straight games. He's 17-14-1 the past two seasons with shaky defense and run game - @TMatich

Don't think #redskins have an issue paying him the money. It's the guaranteed money that's the problem. He's not reliable.
