Path to the Passer: How much is Kirk Cousins worth, and should the Bills pay it?
‘A potential franchise quarterback, in the prime of his career, will be available to every NFL team, with the only cost associated being money. Granted, we’re talking a whole bunch of money, but that’s likely all it will take to land Kirk Cousins.’
