this isn't Terrell Owens.

this is strictly money
glad we didn't let Colston go with his first pay day over $.

I certainly hope Sneed and Thomas can still get open as often without Cooks drawing key focus in opponents secondarys.

You're right, I was exaggerating a bit there. However I do feel I'm spot on about next man up with our receivers. We win a lot when we have seven or eight different players catching the ball throughout the game. Loosing Cooks is not going to have much of an impact on our offense, if any.

we have shown a next man up winning mentality

and many ex Saint players do take a step down leaving Brees' offense.

I think we didn't get enough
roughly an early second round pick
maybe Butler is thrown in, who knows

if we can actually find a defensive stalwart with our 2 #1 picks or trade up for the difference maker (or maybe not)
then this won't taste so bitter

#32 carries the 5th year option which makes it FAR more valuable than #33. That an extra year at the lower salary if a team wants to exercise it.
