MSU Red Cedar Message Board

I was hope/ thinking Denver. Not sure what Elway is up to out there but Peyton ain't winning any super bowls with out more help and he aint playing forever.

Wow...calling out Shanahan

The Redskins' selection of quarterback Kirk Cousins in the fourth round will go down as one of the dumbest picks this franchise has ever made. DeMarcus Cousins would have been better. A fourth-round pick is nothing to take lightly. It's moderately high and ignores the team's needs which are, well, everything. They also effectively drafted competition for Robert Griffin III.

The most important player on the roster is the 1st team QB. The 2nd most important is the 2nd string QB.

It's all moot if they don't fix their terrible offensive line.

They could have Joe Montana, John Elway, Tom Brady and Peyton Manning all rolled into one player back there taking snaps and it won't matter if they don't do something to fix their offensive line to give their guy more than .03 second to make a decision and/or TRY to establish a running game that can gain more than 100yrds in a game.

I really thought they had turned a corner with the Pierre Garcon get and this trade for RG3 but then to waste your other "high" pick on another QB is just totally asinine. I trust Shanny but this is a real head scratcher.

DC traded up twice to get him and will spend eight figures on RGIII. If Griffin goes 0 for the Preseason, and has negative 500 yards rushing in the preseason, he will still start on opening day.

Meanwhile Cousins will be on the Hill solving the economic crisis, fixing our nations' schools, and solving that Middle East thingy.

I bet less than halfway through the season Rex is out the door or relegated to the practice squad. He sucks ass and noone in town wants him anywhere near the Skins.

They should bring back Donovan McNabb then.

Everybody knows its the long snapper

Kirk will be as good as Kurt Warner in his prime someday. But hopefully he doesn't go through the grocery bagging phase to get there. I see him starting somewhere other than Washington in 4-5 years.

If I'm proven wrong, I swear to God I'll shoot you in the head.

I personally think Cousins will be a fine QB, potentially even an nfl starter.... But I think that he couldnt have been picked at a worse place. RGIII is going to be a beast in my book.

It's in your best interest that I be right.

This was an investment, plain and simple. He sits and learns from a pretty good developer of QBs in Shanahan. In a couple years, they will move him for a couple higher picks. Remember, they gave up a ton for RG3. They are going to have holes, and using a 4th for Cousins now and trading him for a 2nd/3rd later isn't a bad move. Plus, if RG3 gets injured or doesn't pan out they have another option.
