Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

A proven top rated WR for the 32nd pick? Words can't describe how I feel.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

I understand the deal
I think it shows there wasn't a load of teams banging down the door for a 5'9/5'10 WR that isnt a true number 1 and will want north of 10ml a year very soon.

I do think they should at least habe got the pats R3/32 pick instead of the comp.

Especially as you can see them trading Jimmy G to get back in the draft

He was picked higher than 32 when we drafted him. Weak trade.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

Should be remembered that the 32 pick holds a bit of sway if a team is looking to jump to grab a QB.

The 5th year option amd the chance to jump the 49ers,Browns etc at the top of the 2nd could net another 2/3rd rounder or even future 1st and others

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

This is from a Titans page

So there it is. It took a first round pick and swapping some fourth round picks to get the deal done. This tells me without a doubt that Jon Robinson never offered the 18th overall selection straight up. The 18th pick may have been involved, but he likely wanted back the Saints 2nd round pick in addition to Cooks.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

Yall act like Cooks was freaking Randy Moss.

We got a 1st and an early 3rd for a WR who was not only a luxury, but a malcontent.

This was not a bad deal at all.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

Had we not given them our 4th it would've been an ok trade. As it stands, I don't like it. Wonder what was so bad about the titans offer that we settled for this bs...
