Cooper is colossal bust so is basically 2nd round pick for excellent edge rusher entering his prime.

New England Patriots didn't want to pay him big money. That's why he got traded.

Cooks is waiting for his payday also. Is he worth 12+mil per season (next offseason better WRs will get 10+ mil easily on the open market)? Not in our system.

I'll say again, first rounder for Cooks (in this draft) is very good deal.

Cooks will get a 5th year option next year. Roughly 6 million. We have 30 million to rebuild the defense. Don't mess up the offense to fix the defense. Would you take parts off one car to fix another if you owned and drove both? Makes no sense.

But from recent reports, it sounds as though Cooks is a growing cancer in the locker room. I like team mates who like to see others succeed as well as the team, not complain that he didn't score or record a catch in a 28 point win. He didn't try to hide it either, he went straight to the media.

I'd agree with you if Cooks didn't pose a problem, but I think his attitude is detrimental to a team filled with young talent.

LF could also help our D (keeping them off the field) and give our old QB a break. Panthers would then be scrambling around to get the other RB Cook more than likely which probably won't happen for them.

He's a good as gone. Titans #5 and a 5th would be great or Eagles 1st and 2nd.

What a dumbass. Best play caller in the game, best QB in the game and you want out.

I guess those TD celebrations between Thomas and Snead were telling something about Cooks.

Most of us picked up on it.

When Thomas scored, Cooks would run off the field. Thomas was congratulated by everyone except Cooks.

When Cooks scored, Michael Thomas was the first one over there to congratulate him.

Cooks always seemed cocky in interviews, I thought maybe he just didn't like the media but after he complained after a 28 point win it spoke volumes.

Let him go to Tennessee, let him complain when Demarco Murray carries the ball too many times.

If that's true..don't let the door hit 'ya. The Titans will easily make it the playoffs and get past NE O.o

Everyone is making fun of him lol! Same thing will happen to him that happens to every target that has no Brees caliber QB. I wish him the best if this is true but just stating a fact.

How much you want to bet Loomis would take the 5th and also some undisclosed performance clause pick say if he hits 1,000 we get a 3rd. Think he has done that more than once.
