Brandin Cooks Officially Traded to Patriots

lee909 · 03-10-2017, 07:16 PM

Should be remembered that the 32 pick holds a bit of sway if a team is looking to jump to grab a QB.

The 5th year option amd the chance to jump the 49ers,Browns etc at the top of the 2nd could net another 2/3rd rounder or even future 1st and others

This is from a Titans page

So there it is. It took a first round pick and swapping some fourth round picks to get the deal done. This tells me without a doubt that Jon Robinson never offered the 18th overall selection straight up. The 18th pick may have been involved, but he likely wanted back the Saints 2nd round pick in addition to Cooks.

Yall act like Cooks was freaking Randy Moss.

We got a 1st and an early 3rd for a WR who was not only a luxury, but a malcontent.

This was not a bad deal at all.

Not sure anyone is acting like he is randy Moss, but a proven player with back to back 1000 yard seasons for a "possible" contributor IMO has a high potential for failing in an epic manner.

You don't get a 1st rounder and an early 3rd for a player that sucks.

Its a deep draft for defense, we need defense, and now we have 5 picks in the 1st 3 rounds.

My post went way over your head. Re-read, re-think.

103 pick is not an early 3rd pick. It's the last pick.

What do you define as early 3rd?

It was a comp pick from the 3rd, as in actually a 4th round pick. Pats killed us on this trade.

Let's not forget we gave up a 3rd round pick to move up in the 1st for cooks...

Let's hope we have some draft magic, because the FO just doesn't get it. Might as well have signed Byrd or Spiller again, or perhaps fleener.... This is right up there.

It seems they wanted Cooks and R2 for 18

We now have 5 of the first 105 picks. Then nothing through 4/5.

Really hoping they sit on their hsnds through them rounds unless somebody badly falls rather than using future picks again.
