I'd be fine with trading Cooks if it made the team better. It's not like clear out guys are hard to come by. Consistency is harder to find. I still think Cooks can be more than just a decoy and would rather see him stay, but if they can find someone to replace his current role, and someone wants to back up the truck to take him away from us, I don't think that would be an offensive idea.

Payton isn't going to say "I can't wait to trade that guy", so anything he says at this point is irrelevant. Of course the Saints will listen to offers. I have no idea what the real interest is for him, though, so I'm not going to waste my time thinking much about it.

If I had a nickel for every time I heard that, the NFL would fine and suspend me.
