CTskin Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I'm a fan of this deal. Kind of hard to understand why anyone would rather pay the same qb a ton more money... Drama is over and were in a decent spot, be ducking grateful, I thought it would end a helluva lot worse than this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destino Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Only the Redskins could turn a contract negotiation with a franchise QB into a situation where they not only sign a lesser player, but surrender assets for the privilege to do so.

That's not worth the 2nd round player and his cheap contract. And it's not worth gettinf 5 years older. Jay and Bruce are scrambling to win some games knowing Kirk was gone. Smith cost only 17 this season. Last season we had Cousins on the book for 28. Savings of 11. Unless the extension effected that some which could be an issue wtf @AdamSchefter: Trade term update: Washington is sending KC a third-round pick and an unidentified player for QB Alex Smith, per sources. m.twitter.com/AdamS...

ANONYMOUS SOURCE. Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I wanted Cousins to stay however there was no way to build any kind of serious team around him at the price he was going to command , they let that boat sail. Smith doesn’t give me the warm and fuzzys but compared to what they could have replaced Cousins with I guess it’s not the worst choice, we went from mediocre to an older version of mediocre imo.

abdcskins Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 I like it, particularly for only a third rounder. More than that and I like it less. Now we can draft a RB and focus on shoring up the defense. I like Kirk but he isn't worth $30 million a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky52Mc Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 33 minutes ago, NoCalMike said: Ok so question. The trade for Alex Smith has nothing to do with Kirk Cousins, so in theory can't the front office still transition tag Cousins in order to force some kind of compensation for Cousins? How? Anyone can out-price us, there is no compensation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bacon Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 $23 million a year for Alex Smith??! Didn't Cousins ask for $19 million a year at one point? We're the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZRagone Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 3 minutes ago, Morrison J said: A 2nd round pick on its own is horrendous value for Smith. If a player is added we've literally been fleeced. Worth remembering that the 49ers got a franchise QB in Jimmy Garopollo for the same value only months ago. Jesus it hurts that much more thinking about it in that fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingdaddy Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 initial reaction is that this is a good deal....Smith is every bit as good if not better than KC, and I think Gruden will be able to do more things with him. Alex Smith was arguably the MVP of the league the first 8 weeks of the season. He lit up New England on opening night and led a comeback against us on MNF. This move allows us to go get the nose tackle, safety or playmaking LB we need to keep building this defense. I'm not in love with Alex Smith but he is a very capable NFL QB who allows us to keep building the roster and keep moving forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
