Quote:has anybody here watched kirk cousins in college? care to give a summary?

 

Yes. Being from Michigan, I watched him a lot. He is a competitor, for sure. Cousins went 4-0 against Michigan in his career. Cousins is a very smart QB who can make the reads you want your QB to make. The biggest knocks on Cousins are his mediocre arm strength, his tendency to lock onto a receiver and try to force throws, and pocket presence. To be, he screams really-good-backup. You want your backup QB to know the ins-and-outs of the playbook and be ready to go in and compete at any moment. Cousins gives you that, but he is limited by other aspects of his game. I would not mind having Cousins on our team as a backup, but I'm not giving up a 2nd round pick for a backup QB.
