For looking at how overpaying can hurt a team look no further than how the Vikings got ravaged by Cousins signing. Theyre more than likely going to lose Cook, traded Diggs and lost most of their defensive starters from a team that went to the NFC championship game. Cousins hasnt provided that super bowl Minnesota was hoping he'd bring because Cousins is a good not great QB. I just think with Dak we've seen his ceiling and how far he can take us. But this will be a telling year. If he cant get us to at least an NFC Championship with Pillars, Zeke, Lamb, Coop, Gallup, Jarwin, that elite OLIne and a new coach in McCarthy who's bringing in a new system then maybe letting him go as opposed to locking him up for the long term.
