Draft note

by John Paulsen

In 2019, Cousins finished No. 16 at his position, outscoring 10 quarterbacks who had more pass attempts than he did. In fact, he had the second-fewest pass attempts of all the quarterbacks who finished in the top 19. Not coincidentally, he scored the sixth-most fantasy points per pass attempt. The Vikings attempted the third-fewest pass attempts last season and figure to be at least a little more pass-happy this year since the defense is expected to take a step back. OC Kevin Stefanski left to coach the Browns and Gary Kubiak will take over the play-calling. In his last two seasons in Denver, Kubiak’s offenses were 13th and 17th in pass attempts. HC Mike Zimmer will try to keep the team run-heavy, but if the defense struggles, Cousins could see his pass attempts spike in 2020.

Congrats to @KirkCousins8 on agreeing to a 2 year extension with the @Vikings

Fantasy Impact:

This deal has Kirk Cousins under center for Minnesota through the 2022 season and he certainly has plenty of fantasy weapons at his disposal. John Paulsen currently has Cousins as QB18 in his early rankings.

MIN QB Kirk Cousins - Week 17 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 vs. Chicago Bears

The Vikings are locked into the No. 6 seed of the playoffs, so they have nothing to play for in Week 17 against the Bears. It's unclear whether Kirk Cousins will even play at all, but he is active, we'd expect him to play only a few drives. Considering Minnesota's plan for Cousins isn't clear, it'd be smart to not even think about playing him.
