The Big Promise of Brandin Cooks

05-09-2014, 11:09 PM

I just read that entire article, I am blown away. What a tremendous pick. I can hardly wait to see him on the field. I listened to his interview after we picked him, with with the guys from Sirius NFL radio, and was impressed already. This article further solidifies that. If things all come together with all of our FA & draft moves the way I'm thinking they are, our Saint's are going to be monsters on the field this season.

Thanks for posting this article Exile. It's a shame I didn't get to watch more Oregon State games last season but it appears that he will be a fun, explosive player in the NFL.

Happy Mother's day Mrs. Cooks. I'm sure his dad is smiling down on him right now in heaven.

Big Promise, in all the rookies.

I heard Sean say in his press conference that he was picked just as much for his work ethic, mental toughness, and overall football intelligence as he was for his skill set. He also seems to be very durable which can't hurt. Especially for a smaller WR.
