Still have ARob to worry about. His contract isn't going to be any less than what Davante Adams just got. That's going to be his floor.

Only loss might be someone like Fowler? We haven't had pass rushers in forever, but now we can afford to just dump em? Hopefully they can strike gold on another Ngakoue in the 3rd round then.

I have never said we couldn't afford Cousins right now. We absolutely could, but I'd prefer to try and keep up a long term success, rather than throwing all the eggs into the basket for 2 years.

We can easily sign Arob too.  

Yeah they might decide to trade him instead of paying him the big money he would command. Depends how he develops.  

Think about it this way. If we're sticking with Bortles we'll be playing him 25+ million in 2019 regardless. 
It'd nice be great if we had a great rookie QB on a shiny rookie contract for the next 4/5 but I don't seem that happening either.
