We don't really ever sign big name WR's. We draft or sign undrafted guys who fit the system.

Malcolm Butler and the 32nd pick for Brandin Cooks?

Then let's sign Hightower as our OLB and draft heavy upfront

If Cooks is unhappy now, going to the Pats not even Prozac could help him. Never going to put up big numbers in that offense. I would however like to get James White or Chris Hogan. Lunch pail kinda guys and no problem with role playing from them. It's what they do.

We don't need huge changes, we need a dominant offensive and defensive line. Those two things work wonders

apparently Philly thought the #46 pick was going
to be enough to land the #7 guy in yardage from last year:

Really like the idea of taking Cooper Kupp in Round 2...

Because he is 38 and threw 100 more balls than any other qb last year.

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
 
The only thing that worries me about potentially trading Cooks to get the assets to try fixing our defense is that we tried this method two years ago and failed miserably. Maybe with a new defensive coaching staff we'll have better luck but it's still the same brain trust identifying talent.
