Should have traded with Titans. Pats owned us.

Agreed.

Maybe the Titans deal was worse. Nobody knows what was offered. Could well have been them wanting Cooks + 2 for 18.

Who knows what the offer is.

Are we getting the Pats 3rd rounder or the Panthers 3rd they have i wonder

Neither a compensatory 3rd

Yeah saw that after

Think they should have got at least the NE 3rd

But its a rid of a man that was starting to kick up a stink snd did t want to be in NO anymore

The Pats deal gave us two picks, but cost us two picks, but did yield an add'l first round pick and improved our fourth round pick...

The Titans deal would've moved us up six spots and gave us one high third round pick...

The Eagles deal offered us a Safety we let walk and a third and fourth round pick...

One lesson I hope Payton/Loomis take for this is when you reach for a player with two picks...

A) You better make it count; with Cooks, they did; with Jon Jenkins, they whiffed; with Vonn Bell, David Onyemata, jury's still out.

B) Unless you keep the player under contract for their career, you never get back their full value to acquire them.

Have to question Loomis' inability to develop a trade market where other GMs seem to thrive...
