The Falcons are looking at this and saying, okay, so you have either we're one year at a $90 million number minus the offset, which he would do what Russell Wilson does, go get the minimum somewhere. So one year at $90 million, or do we keep him as our backup? And then we're talking about a two-year $100 million commitment. And how does that affect your young quarterback?

Ultimately, I think they're going to spend the next few weeks trying to find creative ways to trade him. In the end, I don't know that you can keep Kirk Cousins on your roster. And I think Kirk at some point will probably make his feelings known on that. And then I think Kirk becomes, if he is cut, he can become the solution to the Deshaun Watson problem in Cleveland.

Because if you're getting him for the minimum, he's got the relationship with Kevin Stefanski from having worked together with him and Kevin having been his play caller with the Vikings. You know, like that is a way to work around the Deshaun Watson situation where it's like we've got all this money. We still owe Deshaun Watson. But Kirk Cousins comes in here on the minimum.

We probably draft one somewhere in the first couple of rounds behind him. And now we feel a lot better about our quarterback situation. And maybe we can go to Miles Garrett with that and say, look, like we've fixed this to the greatest degree we possibly can.

You have to give Kirk credit though, because he had the balls to play on two consecutive franchise tags. And that's the difference, is most guys will see the big second contract, even if it's a little below market value, and say, I got to take the bird in the hand. There are very few guys that will actually play out franchise tags the way that he did, and that's how he got to free agency.

And now you can't tag him anymore logistically because of the way that the rules set up. And so he just has to play his contracts out, and then he makes it to the market, which starting quarterbacks never make it to the market. So, like, he – you know, obviously, you know, he did a good job of – you know, of taking a calculated gamble and his cash in on it.

And even like this situation, like I, I don't know, like the idea that like he could go now sort of pick his team, you know what I mean? If they cut him and say, okay, like that's sunk cost one year, 90 million, we need to, you know, be all the way behind Michael Penix. You know, then he's going to go to the market and like,
