I don't think our issue has been cornerback, even with the backups playing most of the season...

Our problem was an ineffective, overpaid free safety and NO PASS RUSH...

We would have to give him 12-15ml a year to get him to stay after his tag. Just pay another FA.

If the Pats are offering anything you know its loaded to them. It always is.

I can't really disagree with what you're saying, but I'm fine with doing this trade. We need a shutdown CB and we think this can be our guy. Does it have down side and risk? Absolutely. Let's wait and see what happens and if there are picks involved.

Or Cooks will not get moved (traded) in 2017 & I wouldn't have a problem with that either.

Cooks needs a new deal in 2 years. He is cheap in 17/18 and you can tag him in 19 too

Barwin is too old and prolly wants to get more than he is worth but i do agree we do need help on the defensive line but all the really good linemen are all resigned, will have to get them out of the draft.

With Ginn signed, Cooks is already traded...

I agree. Sounds to me like they're just working out details. They already have someone to take the top off the defense. Cooks is probably as good as gone in the next day or so.

You sure? Philly signed Torrey & the Saints FO already turned down offers from NE and the Titans. We could be running out of trading partners unless the Browns and/or Jacksonville get involved.

Edit: See Cooks post below.
