Not one mention of Jimmy Garroppolo in this thread, not saying it is but Payton might be wanting this 1st round pick to hand over to NE for him, just another thing I could possibly see happening instead of drafting a qb.

I wouldnt want to give them a 1st for a man with one year left on his deal. If Drew stays he walks

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
 

If he wants to keep Brees he will. No way Brees can continue this pace more than 2 more years. Drew attempted 676 passes last year. Ryan was right at #2 with 534. That's a big difference

I thought this was a Cooks "trade talk" thread?

I'm told that the #Saints asking price for Brandin Cooks this year is a 1st for 2017 and picks for 2018, per source.

Makes sense
More chance getting better additional picks if they are in 2018
Can still trade them to get needs this year if the need is there. It would be nice to go into 2018 with a few extra picks in the bag

Why? look at Brees' sack and times hit last year. Way down. Plus he took every snap. Our really "bad" o-line was 5th in sacks against in '16 and 8th in '15

I remember Bill Belichick said some realy nice things about Cooks after our joint practices and preseason game.
