Which is why the Redskins are playing with fire with their "negotiations" with Cousins. Honestly, I don't think Cousins is worth that kind of contract but you know damn well he and his agent are fishing around for that kind of money. It's going to take one of these big ticket QBs completely busting after signing their deals before teams start to pull back on some of these contracts.

Lamar Miller and two picks.

That has to be some sort of record for draft futility.

That's already happened and it still hasn't stopped teams from spending money on QBs.

Not that these big name QBs will ever hit the open market, because it'll never happen as long as they are healthy and good.
