1 year with Watson 6 TD longest in HO 57 cannon arm
4 year TD total: 20 TD

He's done no better with non declining arms. In fact took him one more year to equal his stay in NO.

Brandin Cooks has a bad attitude and an overblown view of his worth. He could have been like Tyreek Hill, but he isn’t as tough. Despite his observation of Brees being accurate, he doesn’t want us observing and dissecting his play.

It is easier to pass a camel through the eye of a needle than a football through Brandin Cooks catch radius.

Dive a little deeper 2016 Brandin Cooks numbers:

78 rec. down 6 from 2015's 84
Yards 1173 vs 2015 1138 hmm more yds less catches?
Yds Per Catch 15 vs 2015 13.5 hmmmm? again!
Longest 98 yds vs 2015 71, more again hmmmm?
Passes over 20 yds 15 vs 2015 18
Passes over 40 yds 6 vs 2015 5
This on the heels of playing 4 years with 3 different QB'S to equal the 20 TD'S he accrued in 3 years with a "declining" Brees throwing to him

Appears to me someone else's skills were in decline.
