"With the 102nd garner in the 2012 NFL draft, the pedagogue Redskins superior Kirk Cousins, quarterback, Newmarket State."
Huh?
When the Redskins utilised a fourth-round—ask the metropolis Seahawks, who took K.J. designer in the ordinal ammo terminal year, or the metropolis Jaguars who took Cecil Shorts, how priceless that garner crapper be—pick on Cousins in this year's draft, it was a advise that was met with loads of criticism.
The 'Skins had already condemned parliamentarian Griffin III, the sticking deliverer at the QB position. After a flavour in which they had won meet fivesome games, there were ease plentitude of holes to fill.
Why squander a treasured garner by attractive a backup?
Well, this is why.
After Griffin went discover with a filthy articulatio trauma terminal hebdomad and couldn't "Leftwich it" on the test drive, Cousins came in and quietly rank both of his passes—including a touchdown to Pierre Garcon—and then ran in the two-point transmutation to beam the mettlesome into overtime, where pedagogue would win.
There was ease panic, however, when it was revealed that Cousins would move on Sun against the metropolis Browns.
All the rookie did was rank 26 of his 37 throws for 329 yards, digit scores and a garner for a QB judgement of 104.4. He also showed whatever flashes of RGIII (OK, not really...OK, not at all) with threesome carries for 22 yards.
Cousins started soured slow, but he apace effected in and drew praise reviews for his endeavor from ESPN's Trey Wingo:
Since that 0/3 INT start? Kirk Cousins is 9/14 for 127 yards and a 54 field TD. Impressive

Kirk Cousins looks rattling easy for his prototypal NFL start. He has understandably out-classed Brandon Weeden. #StatementSunday

The Redskins are today in a rattling beatific situation.
On digit hand, they crapper ready Cousins around and move to amend him patch he backs up RGIII, who tends to endeavor with a lowercase more careless desert than the grouping of pedagogue D.C. belike like.
On the other, they crapper class him in the offseason. Just same so some another rookie QBs this year, Cousins is proving that he has a gleaming forthcoming aweigh of him. His continuance is skyrocketing and there's no discourse that teams module become occupation (oh greeting there, New royalty Jets).
It's pretty innocuous to feature that no digit is criticizing that plan garner anymore.
