Picking a QB in the draft next year is simply planning for the future. Like you said, regardless of how Cousins pans out this year he's only under contract for one more year (after this year.) We need to be thinking about our next move.
As for the division, we're not out of it yet. We're sitting just two wins behind in the division. If we win 2 more games and everyone else loses we're back on top. There's still a lot of football to play this season. It's too early to give up.
On the subject of Cousins, I find it interesting that he receives so much flak for losing to winning teams yet other QBs with the same issue don't get as much attention for the same stat. Take Matthew Stafford for example. The guy has a horrible record against winning teams. Either Cousins is overly criticized or guys like Stafford need to be criticized more.
