Good grief, if we only get a rd 1 for him I'm going to be pissed. We gave up a 3rd to move up in the first to get him. A rd 1 is not enough. Rd 1 and a rd 2 or 3+ picks is a must or moving up to get him was a wasted pick.
I was thinking the same thing.

If we give up Cooks and our pick to move to 5 I would be seriously pissed. Getting a high pick like 5 for him okay, but without giving up our draftpick would be okay. Or receiving a first and player or multiple picks.

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks

If it swap picks it makes no sense. But for the number 5 pock another pick or a player its potential a very good deal

Just need to get the right player

You all know though if we get the 5th pick we take a impact player then a QB at 11 just to pee on the parade

I would only take #5 as a straight up swap Cooks for #5 . then double up on DE Thomas and Allen pass rusher fixed. Imagine Thomas , Rankins. Jourdan, Allen. Awesome front four

162 catches, 2311 yards, 17 tds is 2 years

that is worth more considerably than just a 1

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks

So we can trade Brandin Cooks for the #5 pick to the AFC and not have to worry about seeing him or paying him? From there we could take Solomon Thomas or Jonathan Allen at 5, and Reuben Foster at #11? We can get another WR in free agency. I think I'd pull the trigger.

It makes sense. As good as he is he wont be a number 1 receiver for me. He doesn't have the size and will need a really accurate QB to throw to the smaller frame/window.

I rate him,really exciting player etc but he is going to want 10ml a year. Brees can make a 4/5th round WR look all pro and that money can go on suring up the line on either offense or defensive.

If it happens good luck to him.
i agree, but the assuming teams know this also, thats why i think they will not offer a first rd pick for cook, a second and 3rd rnder possibly

thats why we need a play for ashton jeffries chicago maybe trade pick for him.
