Not sure myself. Id like a 3/4 to sweeten that a bit.

5 would be great and 18 still bery good.

Yep. I personally would be more than happy with that, but don't believe thats possible. Kind of like getting #5 for Cooks straight up. that would be two top 20 picks in a DEEP Defensive class, who doesn't like the sound of that.

Its probably fair for both teams looking at it. They get a proven talent cheap for 2 years and get to move up 7 spots in the draft for the number 5 pick.

Saints jump straight into the top 5 and still get a mod rounder where they can get a good talent. Or even trade back for a few more picks with either.

Jumping Carolina and having LF on the board at 5 could really be turned into a few picks.

Maybe even bring the Eagles into the frame for a WR as they have

That **** by cooks and MT is no coincidence. You're right. They can try and cover it up and all that, but they know what they're doing

Cooks is one of the best in the league. He is young and just starting to hit his prime. If I am the Saints I hold out for quite a bit. Good for us that we are finally making trying to force good moves or just walking away.

I just now got over losing Jimmy. I don't want to lose Cooks but If he is having a bad attitude about touches I understand. I hope we don't just get Pats #1. I would hold out for the best possible deal and pray to God we do not choke on draft day.

#5 and #18 for cooks and # 11 The saints could end up with Solomon Thomas and OJ Howard

I will be glad when this circus is over.

At the end of the day a player's trade value is whatever the highest bidder is willing to give up.

Dumb to take a TE in rd 1. They say this is the deepest/best TE draft in history. Take a CB and DE in rd 1 if this trade goes through.

Cooks and #11 for #5 and #18 sounds great. I wouldn't ***** about that at all.
