Payton spent a 1st and a 3rd to get him; Cooks is 23 yo, back-to-back 1100 ReYd seasons with at least 6 ReTD's per - Return should be the 5th pick AND a 3R pick...

No freakin' less - Do you here me Loomis you putz? Don't give it up easy, Nancy!

In fact, the Mickster should excuse himself from the room and let Ireland & the adults with balls close the deal...

Actually, immediately thought of Byrd and his replacement likely there at pick No. 5 pick - Malik Hooker or Jamal Adams (scratch Adams, he's from LSU)...

Ireland can put together a D fairly well, and if losing Cook to get us there I'm all in. We need cb.'s, NT, DE, S and an OLB, some of this will come from FA but the draft is deep at DE, CB, and S and I look to see some true upgrades at CB this season in the draft. I also think Colemans progress made Cook tradeable. Now I hope Vaccarro gets a turn on the trading block.
'Weenie, you crack me up - You made a valid statement about Cooks' worth, then you went all Madden Football Insane and want to blow up the team in one draft...

Pittsburgh or Green Bay will reach for Watt at the end of the first round unless he has an abysmal combine...
foreverfan, ScottF and Sarik like this.

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

I really don't get how I crack you up but ok, Fairley unsigned will test FA= my want for a NT that can slide in and play NT and DT I might not be as big of a Fairley fan as you, our glass cb.s should speak for themselves not seeing the field and being in the tub club all year, S- Byrd being released and not sure Harper has much left to offer, OLB is a need with cover skills, and a DE thats not a one trick pony, we need one that contains and don't get smothered rushing the passer, as far as Vaccarro= overrated and he still is but if it cracks you up I'm good with it. I just look at a 28th ranked D.

Re: Brandin Cooks Trade Talks

Brandon Marshall is being cut. I'll take another big body receiver to pair with Thomas for a little while in a heartbeat. He's what the Saints prefer anyway. We can sign Cordarelle Patterson or Marquis Goodwin to stretch the field.

Cooper Kupp caught everything at the Reese's Senior Bowl and all the Saints men were there watching him...

Get a first and third for Cooks, draft Kupp in the second, and we're moving along...

Just watched some highlights, he has a big catching radius, which is made all the more evident because the QB's throwing to him aren't very accurate. I'm not familiar with that many college athletes, but I wouldn't be disappointed if we got him, however I'd like to address D first.

Well, you should read all the threads as Fairley obviously had a good year, but I'm hardly a "fan" and I've explained my feelings on keeping him...

Harper has nothing left to offer, save coaching and mentoring...

Defenses really have to gel, sync, and while we have plenty of positions that could use upgrade, I don't agree that blowing the defense up, again, is the answer...
