What I like about him is that he's very durable ,creates separation,and is elusive. Good pick.

Watch how he catches the ball in the highlights, theres no bobble, its great hand-eye coordination and he snags it out of the air with strong hands, love the pick

With an improved running game, stills and cooks are burning some defenses this year

I'm not in love with the pick, because I really wanted Dennard or Verrett. But I trust the front office knows what they're doing.

Part of me wonders if he's actually going to play more of the Sproles/Bush role than playing as a traditional wide receiver. He won't be lined up as a running back of course, but moving him around formations to get matchups, throwing him screens and slants and letting him run after the catch.

Remind anybody of Steve Smith minus the attitude?

I like Cooks, but I don't like giving up a 3rd rounder in a deep draft to get him. Therefore i say bad pick.

I'm on the fence. Kinda wanted someone taller but I can see his speed as a need. Definitely glad we got a WR. The first thing that came to mind for a split second when we moved up is Johnny Manziel. I am so glad that turd fell all the way to 22. If it weren't for him doing dumb **** like the money sign he might have been drafted higher.

staying put and we would have missed out on Denard, Verrett, Cooks, possibly Marqise Lee.....I like the trade up even more now.
