Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
I read this article and this doesn't seem to make a lot of sense, well at least not the one part. I could see us taking the 18th for cook, although I'd try to get a first and second. Anyway this article says 18 for cooks straight up or cooks and our 11th for their 5th. I don't really think the second scenario makes any sense. We lose cooks and only move 6 spots for it...

Cooks + Pick 11 for Titans Pick 5 and 18 ^ That would be highway robbery on the Saints part in my opinion. I pray that's the deal we get. If not, I'm cool with us sending Cooks to one of those AFC teams in the 10-20 range straight up. Either way, he has to go. He's a cancer with a contract coming up. |

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
Cooks is a top 10 receiver. If the tables were turned I'd give up our number 11 pick for him in a heartbeat.

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
Teams wont give up really high picks for a player that isnt a QB maybe a top notch pass rusher.
Cooks isnt even a true number 1 WR He has 2300 yards and 17 TDs in 2 years. He isnt a Calvin Johnson,Odel Beckahm,Julio Jones or Antonio Brown putting up monster numbers He will want 12ml a year after this year and he isnt worth a top 10 pick to most teams. Why would you give up multiple picks when you coulf go and grab Pryor,Jeffery,Marshall for nothing |

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
The value needs to be there. What the Saints are doing isn't common. Even last year when NE traded Jones, he was in the last year of his deal. We are trading a top 15 WR with 2 years left on his rookie deal. That's the absolute pinnacle value he will ever have even if he actually becomes a better WR later.
Que Sera, Sera. |

cooks+ 11 for 5 and 18, would mean we received 18 and pick 45 for cooks.(not literally, just points from the draft pick value) It isn't that crazy |

Julio Jones Odell Beckham, Jr. Antonio Brown DeAndre Hopkins Dez Bryant A.J. Green Jordy Nelson Demaryius Thomas Mike Evans T.Y. Hilton That's 10 off the top of my head. From there we could debate if he's better than Jarvis Landry, Amari Cooper, or Emmanuel Sanders. I don't think he's better than Michael Thomas though. Not to mention, he's an extremely small receiver...but he's no Steve Smith. |

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks
I think it's pretty crazy if we were able to get a top 20 pick in the first round and a top 20 pick in the 2nd round for Brandin Cooks. Madden wouldn't accept that trade. Lol.
