I'm sure the Jets, Texans, Bills, or Broncos would be happy to overpay for Cousins.

It is literally sickening to see how valuable and rare QBs are and we have one of the best ever and can't crack .500 3 years in a row!!!

I don't think Cousins is amazing, but what choice do teams have. Not everyone can be Rodgers, Brees, or Brady. Paying too much for an average/good qb is still way better than having absolutely no qb.
There's just no scenario where this works out well for Washington. And how can you give a monster contract to a corner who played almost entirely in a zone scheme, but not pay a QB putting up good numbers?
I mean look at the Osweiler contract, which you have to imagine they could've given Cousins something similar, but a little bit more. The Texans will still get out of it after 2 years with I think 6 million in dead money. It's sucks, but that's the worst case scenario. And unlike the Texans, the Redskins have a bad defense so they would've just gotten a much higher pick if Cousins was horrible.
Flip side, Cousins continues to improve and you lose a good qb because you were stubborn.
They don't deserve him.It's hard to understand what they're not seeing in Cousins at this point. In two seasons as a starter, he has been in the top 3 in the league in completion percentage (avg. 68% as a starter). His TD/INT ratio is very solid - he threw 29/11 in 2015 and 25/12 in 2016. He eclipsed 4,000 yards in both seasons and last season finished 3rd in the league with 4,917 yards.
And I doubt most fans could name a single player on the Skins offensive line or in the Skins backfield. So what are they waiting for him to be?

Matt Jones and Tulane's own Robert Kelly at RB. Brandon Scherrf at G (who I believe has really underperformed based on his pre-draft potential) and Trent Williams still plays OT for them, doesn't he?
