Looks like we only gave up a couple high picks and acquired some really good players. It doesn't really look all that costly to me.

Its not like we gave up 2 freaking picks for a Punter.

Plus, besides Brees, Ingram is vital to our team

The two picks we gave up were worth a pro bowl player who puts up an average of 1400 all purpose yards per season.

Once again, Brandin Cooks completely worth it because he is a pro bowl caliber player - 1200 yards and 9 TD's last season.

Ingram is vital? too many season were we won while he was injured. so vital is a term I use lightly with him. Even when the saints forced feed him the rock he get his just due but not enough for that additional pick IMO.

Brandin Cooks pro bowl? the talent is there but as of yet he has not made the trip. he still has plenty of time to get there.
