Good luck with that. I will take the top 10-12 QB.

And I believe Watson could be a top 5 QB. He might not, but the only way you are ever going to get a top 5 QB is by drafting one. Might as well start now.

1. Watson
2. Kizer
3. Trubisky
4. Cousins as a free agent
5. McCarron
6. JG
Go with the rookie or spend money on someone with a decent enough resume in Cousins.

The guy who threw 17 interceptions in 14 games at the college level?
Yeah ok.
You don't need a top 5 QB to win a Superbowl. It obviously helps, but it's not necessary. Cousins is definitely good enough to win a SB with a good team around him. He is better than guys like Eli, Flacco, 2016 Peyton. He really isn't that far off Russell

don't because the statement has nothing to do with linking Watson to fox just a comment on traits Kizer has the same traits

You are also gonna have to pay Cousins 100M with 60 of it guaranteed. I would rather pay Watson a rookie contract.

Interceptions in college are not a good predictor of interceptions or production in the NFL.

If you can get Cousins for only money.... That's the top option. Of course that would be about 23M per year, but that's better 18M per and multiple early picks. It's also more of a sure thing than a draft pick and worth the money difference IMO

I don't know where you pulled this from but all I know is if you are throwing 17 INT's against college level athletes with four NFL level players at skill positions...
Good luck against the NFL caliber athletes when the window for error is going to be a lot smaller.

Oh and out of the QB's with 400+ pass attempts last year - Only Ryan Fitzpatrick and Philip Rivers had a higher interception %

Trubisky has play 13 college games. Kirk is an NFL QB who has thrown for 4K yards the past two years. Almost 5K this past year. You're crazy.

For us to get him, we would have to pay him top QB money for a guy that is maybe 12th best QB in the NFL. And then give up our 3rd overall pick too? Fuck that.
If I am drafting a QB at 3, I am hoping he is better than Cousins. Plain and simple.

Why are we giving up our 3rd overall pick? Did I miss something?

Most would argue that guys don't become more accurate and turn the ball over less in the pros.
Turnover prone guys in college often remain that way in the pros.

People criminally under rate Cousins because of his early struggles.
