I feel like I'm in the minority on this, but I would rather see the Raiders hold onto Cousins even if Mendoza is playing. I think it's valuable for the rookie to have a peer as a sounding board when things go wrong during his first handful of starts.

Author favors keeping Cousins as Mendoza's mentor despite draft capital opportunity.

Adam Schefter believes it is valuable for the rookie to have a peer as a sounding board when things go wrong during his first handful of starts, especially since Cousins has seen it all in the NFL. The two have been forming a big brother-little brother type of relationship over the last six months.
