Oh my.

Frey, convince me that we would be a contender with this roster, minus a piece or two, and with Cousins.

IMO, that means it's likely us or minny. . .

I think Zona might be a decent darkhorse.

What about Clev, Buff, Jets and the Cards!?

Jaguars are giving QB Blake Bortles a new three-year, $54 million deal, worth up to $66.5M with incentives, that includes $26.5M guaranteed, tying him to Jacksonville through the 2020 season, per source.

i just don't think he wants to go to one of those loser organizations, when he has other options. . . he's already made fifty million plus, and he's going to get a hundred more regardless of where he goes. . . kirk is a smart, humble guy-- as far as i know, he's still driving that minivan. . . i think minnesota is probably his top choice, and we're probably his second-- clearly JMO, but i don't see him going someplace like new york or cleveland unless denver and the vikes seriously try to short-change him. . . i suppose the cards could be an option, but we have by far the best track record, and i personally believe that the front office and ownership group really matters a lot to him after getting jerked around in washington. . . we'll see. . .

We must be twins Dog! I think the same exact thing. He said he wants to go to a contender.

Jax was the best option for him and they really screwed the pooch.

I will be happy if we sign him, even though I think the best bet is to rebuild.

Cardinals have less cap space than us. I don’t think it’s happening. I also never thought the Jags were serious on Cousins especially with Bortles potentially not passing a physical. I didn’t see the extension coming though

In any case, I think it’s us, the Vikings or the Jets. I wouldn’t rule the Jets out - they’re desperate and have a lot of money to throw around. I hope they get him, honestly

I'm not going to do that. Kirk will either work out or he won't, but we need a QB, he's a QB and a pretty decent one IMO.

Frey, I need you.

Is he?

Let's change that to Keenum is better than TS when sitting behind a good OL.

They don't really have the cap for it and unlike us, there really isn't anyone for them to cut.
