    Philly should trade Wentz. His value will never be higher.

    I think Cousins tries to leverage his way into Minnesota. Good OL, young, talented weapons on offense and a quality defense. He'll have to discipline himself to cut down on turnovers but otherwise it's his best path to serious playoff contention.

    This will be the hot take on sports talk radio come Monday should Foles play even average.

    Denver, too. That's a playoff team with even average QB play. And two good WRs who'd be happy to have a guy like Cousins.

    I feel like Denver is on the back end of their window unfortunately, they wasted two years of great defense with awful QB play and without a reliable running game like Minnesota has. Could Cousins beat New England or even Pittsburgh without a good running game? I'm not sure.

    Minnesota is not paying what Cousins wants. Denver might.

    What's the estimated contract? Somewhere around $135M over five with $70M+ in signing bonus?

    If Jacksonville wants to ditch Bortles and replace him with Cousins, it's a Super Bowl team.

    How is Denver's line? Their options / play at QB have been so bad, it's hard to tell how much it effects the rest of the team. Pretty easy to stack the box and rush if there isn't any reason to respect the pass, and if your offense can't string together long drives, then it doesn't matter how good the D is because they eventually get gassed.
