Kirk Cousins has been one of the better draft picks in recent memory for the Washington Redskins, but SB Nation's NFL team is calling him the best.

The quarterback has been named the Redskins' best draft pick of the last five seasons and they explain why here:

Washington drafted Cousins in the fourth round in 2012, the same year the team traded up to select Robert Griffin III with the second pick. Griffin had an incredible rookie season, but his play declined sharply after that. In 2015, Cousins earned the starting job and ran with it. The 28-year-old led Washington to the playoffs in 2015 and threw for over 4,000 yards twice.
