Morgan, Kenny, Cooks, Graham, and old reliable Colston... Throw in Meach or Toon.. |

In the First Round, Saints Pick Wide Reciever Brandin Cooks
This:
"The fastest wide receiver in this year's class, Cooks set a Pac-12 record with 1,730 receiving yards on 128 receptions en route to winning the Biletnikoff Award last season. He generated more plays of 20+ yards than any skill-position player in college football." There are soooo many ways to love this pick. Missing Sproles? Problem solved. Missing Meachem/Henderson speed, worried that our speedy Joe Morgan can't stay healthy? Problem solved Have a need for speed? How about this, Cooks/Morgan/Stills all 4.3ish guys on the field at once.... Think about it. Durability? Done Big play ability? Got it Seattle containing our receivers? Solved, he possesses elite start/stop ability. Need a punt returner? Done If you got a problem, yo he'll solve it. Cooks Cooks baby |

Re: In the First Round, Saints Pick Wide Reciever Brandin Cooks
See how happy I am?
I didn't spend 2 months falling in love with a player that wasn't picked. When it comes to the Saints, I'm not a go out and find love kind of guy, I prefer to let Loomis and Sean Payton arrange my marriages . I've never been upset over a draft pick. |

Re: In the First Round, Saints Pick Wide Reciever Brandin Cooks
Everyone remembers how much Reggie was coveted and considered a sure thing when we picked him right? This pick isn't a sure thing either. I would be happy to eat crow and be proven wrong, but this was a reach.

Huge difference. It would have been a reach if Cooks was a RB. But he's a dynamite WR.

Re: In the First Round, Saints Pick Wide Reciever Brandin Cooks
I understand he is a RB but Bush also caught more passes than Boldin. There was little question about Bush's ability as a play maker, returner or as a RB which is why he went so high, was compared with Mario and we did not entertain any offers to trade down so we could pick him #2. I think everyone would agree that he did not pan out as expected.
