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.
