If Vikings break bank for Kirk Cousins, can they keep rest of team intact?

Can the Minnesota Vikings have it all? That's the (multi-)million-dollar question they will attempt to answer this week during free agency.

Minnesota appears to be leading the pack in the race to sign Kirk Cousins. Whether the Vikings can afford the steep price tag for the free-agent quarterback and whether Cousins is worth the money he's going to command are two separate, yet equally important questions.

Coach Mike Zimmer cautioned about overpaying for a quarterback two weeks ago at the NFL combine. A franchise putting all of its eggs in one basket might limit what it's able to do with other players.
