They could have worked a side deal. Do it when no one in the league was looking. 😂

The trade deadline was today. A couple more weeks, you weren’t getting 💩

Well said Moe. I think it was a great deal by Spytek and now our boy can start getting ready for 2027! LFG!

You also run the risk of Minnesota finding another deal for a QB and getting nothing. Leverage play is fun in theory but you take the fair deal and don’t think twice.
So, the Raiders initially had the same train of thought as I did. Still a solid deal since Cousins didn't have a trade market outside of Minnesota.
A 3rd-round pick for a player who wasn't going to play for the Raiders beyond this year anyway.
The #Vikings had a crazy day calling around the league for QBs before landing on Kirk Cousins.
It wasn’t simple, as the Raiders’ initial asking price was a 2nd-round pick.

I heard they tried to squeeze them for a 2nd but Vikes said no.
If a deal didn't get done today they'd get nothing for him
Deadline gone. Then he's released next year.
Most applauded the Raiders for the deal.
Now you get to accelerate Nando's timeline for next yr.
No brainer.

A 38 year old that was a one year rental QB for us, if you would told me before the year that halfway thru the season we’d be basically .500, Fernando was starting and actually ready to and we’d be getting a 3rd rd pick for cousins id been jumping for joy
