As an Iggles fan transplanted in Deadskins country I see Cousins often and can comment objectively. He's the real deal and likely worth what gets. I wouldn't put him up with Brady or Brees but he's solidly in the next tier. Still forces the ball a little too often but he's a playmaker. His numbers fell as the season wore on but the 'skins were truly decimated by injuries, especially on the offensive side.
I think with the Vikes you choose between Keenum and Bridgewater. Bradford is like that old Triumph on the side of your driveway. You think of how cool it would be if it was cherry but deep down you know it won't stay running and it really wasn't that hot to start with. Plus he won't throw the damn ball downfield. If he was Russian his name would be Chekov.
