3. Kirk Cousins, Minnesota Vikings

Kirk Cousins is the highest paid quarterback in the division (as of now), but comes in at No. 3. For some, he might a bit of a surprise to come in behind Matthew Staffrod, but it’s deservedly so.

Cousins had some big seasons with the Washington Redskins, but failed to make it out of the first round of the playoffs. Minnesota will surely be disappointed with a first round playoff exit in any season with Cousins at the helm.

To add on to matters, it’s hard to imagine Cousins having as good of a season as Case Keenum did last season. Overall, Cousins is an above average quarterback in the NFL, but not the new king of U.S. Bank Stadium Vikings’ fans have dubbed him as.
