Report: Jets will pay “whatever it takes” to get Kirk Cousins

The Jets apparently want Kirk Cousins. They apparently want him badly enough that they’re willing to break the bank for him.

According to Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, the Jets are “willing to pay whatever it takes” to get him.


This report comes amid a belief that the Jets may be willing to fully guarantee Cousins’ deal. The notion of paying “whatever it takes” becomes far more open-ended than that, especially since there’s no way of knowing what it will take until knowing what another team will pay.

If there’s at least one other team willing to make a similar commitment, the end result could be an auction that drives the market well north of $30 million per year. Assuming, of course, that Cousins would want to actually play for one of the teams willing to break the bank.

During a Super Bowl-week visit to PFT Live, Cousins seemed to suggest that he’s willing to take less to win, while also acknowledging that plenty of winning teams have expensive quarterbacks. Last year, he seemed to suggest that his goal is to make as much as possible.

“[T]here’s other quarterbacks that come after you and it would be almost a selfish move to hurt future quarterbacks who get in a position to have a contract,” Cousins said in January 2017. “And if you don’t take a deal that’s fair to you, then you’re also taking a deal that’s not fair to them and you’re setting them back as well. So there’s different reasons. You just do the best you can.”

Cousins will be doing better than the best any quarterback has ever done, whether it’s with the Jets or another team. Barring a third straight franchise tag from his current team (which remains unlikely, and likely would be scrapped via a grievance), Cousins will become the first healthy franchise quarterback on the right side of 30 to become a free agent in nearly a quarter-century of free agency. Given the $44 million he has made over the last two years, his next deal could push his career earnings toward a quarter-billion.

From what I've seen, most Redskins fans see him as a younger Alex Smith.

Frankly, I kind of hope he goes to Denver, and they mortgage the farm to get him.

I'm sort of torn about that. Cousins would win them a good number of regular season games, even if he's not a threat to become a postseason monster type of QB. That could still hurt the Chiefs long-term over the parade of knuckleheads that Smellway keeps running out there.

In any case, we may not like a re-Flaccoing of the market when PM's deal comes up, and he's now entering the second year of a 4 year deal IIRC. Questions about his contract are not all that far off.
The problem is, Cousins isn’t the kind of guy who is going to lead a team to a title. Giving him a major chunk of your salary cap space is only going to limit your opportunities to surround him with the great team he’s going to need to have any chance in the playoffs.

Might they win 7-10 games a few times? Sure. But they still aren’t going to win a championship.

1. The team that makes sense for Cousins is the Vikings.
2. Jacksonville will go all "cuss Chiefs" because Bortles has his 5th year option and stick with the guy they drafted dooming the franchise for the next decade.
3. The Broncos are really kinda screwed. Hahahahaha
4. The only way the Browns screw up is if they don't draft a QB number one over all.
5. Everything is shaping up great for the Chiefs as we enter the Mahomes era don't et us down kid!

Kirk should without a doubt take the best deal available... if that's the Jets, so be it. Denver will either make a push to give him the new biggest contract of all times or they'll watch another team do it and go plan B. We'll see how it all works out.

Not really... look at what SF paid JG. It's what happens in the NFL when you'e a FA QB and big upside.

Jeanine Garrafalo already ****ed up the QB market with his overrated as **** ass.

Not much more damage that Kirk Cousins can do.

Everyone bets differently. Some people like to play it safe and go with a known quantity than a complete unknown.

Then the Jets are gonna gamble away their house, the wife, and family betting this way

Pugs is right, Cousins isnt a put the team on your shoulders QB... if they give him a stupid contract, they'll never be able to surround him with enough talent to make them relevant
