You know they didn't see this one coming. I really think we're the first team in a long time to beat the Patriots in a trade. We picked up a 1st and a 3rd.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

That was a good move on the Pats part really

They gave up a comp 3rd to get Cooks but by getting the Saints 4th they have regained there 4th rounder

No need for McCafferty...we traded Cooks to get better on defense and with the 1st Rd picks that's what we should do. Those 1st Rd picks need to be every down players....not occasional.

It's a BIG mistake. Don't we play the Pats this year? Cooks will be motivated.

Still believe this was the highest draft picked offered. No first rounders just odd ball packages of players and lower picks. Sorry but the media once again miss lead us. In the end the pats probably were the highest bidder.

Trading up to draft a 5'10" WR at #20 in the deepest WR draft in history was the mistake. Not fixing the defense was the mistake.

Fix the defense, then we'll be making a deep run in the playoffs without Cooks.

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

McCafferty is just a favorite of mine . I don't think they go offense until 3 RD with pick from pats
Joe Mixon would be a great pick at#103

Re: Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

I want us to keep all of our picks, I don't want us to package to move up. Maybe even gain some more moving back.

Me too - I want to see us stand pat and draft some people, but that's because I'm not well-versed enough to know whether anybody is so good we should maneuver to get him. We have options tho, so I'm excited I guess, either way.
