From the reports the Browns offered the Redskins a fourth round pick for Cousins during the draft.
If true, and Allen denies it, the Redskins did the right thing in declining the offer.
A fourth rounder for a 24 year old quarterback the Browns supposedly thought had a good chance of starting for them in 2014?
Potential starters are so valuable in this league you see guys like AJ Feeley traded for a #2 pick and guys like Tebow taken in the first round despite many teams thinking he would be a better tight end or running back.
So, Washington takes Cousins and he learns the NFL for 2 years here with the current Browns OC and Cleveland wanted to give us our pick back as if we had made a mistake?
I don't think Cousins is worth a #1 pick but for a team to give up its insurance policy at qb behind a starter with an injury history you might want to start by offering slightly more than a pick in the 120's.
