Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
1 Attachment(s)
“If we were running a reverse or a special play, he’s someone, certainly, with his speed, that would be one of the guys we’d look to do that with,” Saints coach Sean Payton said. “Whenever you add speed to the field, it stretches the defense, both in the passing game and the running game. We just have to find that balance and fit it into what we’re doing.”
Cooks didn’t get as many reps with the first-team offense, because he is still trying to learn a new offense and catch up on everything he has missed since he was back at school. But it is apparent to Cooks’ teammates that he will be able to make an immediate impact on the team. “Today, I didn’t even see him when he got that hand-off,” outside linebacker Junior Galette said, describing a play at Thursday’s practice where Cooks got a hand-off on a reverse and sped up the sidelines. “I haven’t seen that speed in quite a while. His speed is definitely top-tier in the league.” Read more: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice | Saints | The Advocate — Baton Rouge, LA |

I can't wait to see him in action. I have a feeling he is going to be the real thing. Something special.

Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
How is Coleman doing in OTA so far? Haven`t really heard a lot in the last couple of weeks.
With his size he could be something special as well in our new offensive System. BTW: Got tickets for Saints vs. 49ers, vs. Bengals and LSU vs. Bama. Making my trip over from Europe this November! Can`t wait |

Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
The problem is that we have not had the speed and allusiveness required to make the end around successful. It takes a Percy Harvin type to pull it off. Oh, wait ... we have a Percy Harvin type now. Cooks!

Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
Someone in this thread...I ain't saying who...said "tomfoolery" and should be dealt with. Perhaps a poll with options for punishment is in order?

I remember missing the playoffs in 08 needing 2 yards deep in our own territory to close out a game against the Bucs and Payton called an actual reverse to Henderson. Henderson was hella fast but not exactly elusive. Cooks probably could've gotten away from that tackle and made something out of it. |

Re: Cooks shines during Thursday's OTA practice
I think that, certainly, when you think about the player and his ability... The thing that you think about is that you have a player who, certainly, I think can be a game changer. And I think that the consensus of thought around here is that we think we have a guy who will fit the process of what we do and how we think. I think he's got the potential, certainly, to be special.
