The supposition that a young QB like Trevor could say nah through the 5th year option and 2 franchise tags is an interesting one.  Cousins did it (no 5th year option on him since he wasn't a 1st rounder) and did quite well for himself, but I don't think Cousins at the time of his unrestricted free agency was viewed in the same light that I think Trevor would be in a similar scenario playing out for him.  Regardless, I haven't gotten anything from Trevor that says he's that guy.  I feel like he understands the value of winning Super Bowls and legacy.  Him hypothetically reaching unrestricted free agency to achieve some ridiculously large contract offer which would probably hamstring the team signing him in this hypothetical doesn't lend itself to those things.  Who knows what's actually in anyone's head, but I just don't think that's him.
