Kirk CousinsQB

Bob Harris is not the biggest fan of Kirk Cousins as a starter, but is an absolute raving fan of the situation with Mendoza because Cousins became a good Pro Bowl-caliber starter the hard way—learning behind multiple quarterbacks in Washington, making early mistakes, and growing into a very strong West Coast offense quarterback. Cousins has very strong knowledge of the San Francisco/Kubiak-style offense (Greg Knapp, Shanahan, McVay lineage) and will be a good teacher and journeyman mentor for Mendoza. Cousins is a worker who has parlayed franchise tag situations into exceptional career earnings—either second or third most money made over a career, with $330 million in career earnings.
