Otherwise, what does a coaching candidate think: "Hell, he gave Vance 3 garbage QBs and no decent OL and no offensive weapons to work with, and then fired him after 1 season, never admitting his own fault in the decline in talent on the roster. What makes me think the same thing won't happen to me if I take this job? PASS!"
As for Kirk Cousins, obviously he's not coming here anyway. If this idiot writer thinks that somehow Elway will work some "magic" and convince Cousins to come here and somehow take about $5m less than he'll get elsewhere and that somehow the Redskins wouldn't gleefully match any Broncos offer for $26m a year (or any reasonable amount), then of NO - Kirk Cousins ISN'T coming here.
And that is no reflection on John Elway. That simply means he is not stupid enough to offer Kirk Cousins $30+ million a year in order to force the Redskins to let him go.
They are all in on cousins. I keep telling you this. They are going to make it happen unless cousins just does not want to come here. I bet he does. Watch us make a go of it.
The Plan at the moment:
Draft: Trade a 3rd and 6th this year to a team to move up and get a 2nd next year (this will happen).
Players I want:
Jake Ferguson (Jake Butt) or Jelani Woods or Jeremy Ruckert or Cade Otten (owen daniels) at TE- All 4th rd or later.
Troy Anderson LB 3rd/4th rd (yay Timmy!)
Neil Farrell, JR DL- run stuffer- bye purcell
