Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!
 

Good news fellas! (Sorry JP)

Re: Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!
 
I'm lukewarm on this one. Jared has consistently underachieved through his career. Hoping for the best though. On paper he's an upgrade.

Re: Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!
 
Great news! Definitely needed upgrade at TE position. Cook is athletic freak. Sean will have fun with this guy in our offense. We will see more seam trows from Brees (probably his best throw). Nice addition.

This is bad ass. Gonna help the team out a lot

If Ben Watson plays vs Rams we are in the super bowl. Cook is just as good if not better than Watson in his prime.

Let's see what he does with a real QB throwing him the ball.

19-0 Baby!

I can understand apprehension about signing Jared Cook, but it’s been a long time since we’ve had a TE that could really exploit LB’s and safeties in coverage with his athleticism.

I think this signing makes sense for us as long as we didn't overpay. What else were we going to do? Trade up in the draft for a TE with the picks we don't have?

If we don’t get our line shored up you may not see a real QB throwing the ball after a few games.

I hope we didn't over pay but Cook is a great tight end. He's an excellent blocker to boot. I'm looking forward to seeing him in Black and Gold.

Re: Saints Signing TE Jared Cook!
 
Good pickup. Extremely difficult to get a decent TE these days. Only about 4 decent ones. After that it falls off a cliff. Drafting one is not an option because they normally take years to develop. If he stays healthy no reason he can't hit 1K yards and 10 plus TDs.

Shored up? We had the 8th highest rated offensive line following week 17 of last season. The only starter being replaced is Unger, and he was playing hurt down the stretch. Brees ended up being the least sacked starting QB in the entire league. There is no reason for someone to believe that we won't have one of the top tier offensive lines in the NFL once again ... unless that someone is an eternal pessimist.

Very optimistic, I say we drop one to the Zebras. 18-1

Now we go Offensive Line, RB, TE, QB, WR in the draft.

Nice.

Cook fills a huge weakness on offense.

Welcome to New Orleans Jared :bng:.

BS the line was hot garbage once people started going down. That’s a cold hard fact. Armstead will only play 8 games, Unger is gone. Those two are huge assets. Last year has nothing to do with this year.

Who says Armstead will only play eight games? Since you are in the know, how about sharing the 2019 Kentucky Derby winner with me, huh?

SO ARE ALL THE EGGSPURTS MULTI BILLIONAIRES FROM PICKING THE POWER BALL NUMBERS OR DOES THEIR "GIFT" ONLY WORK FOR FOOTBALL?

I was lukewarm on signing Ted Ginn because he was constantly underachieving. he has been really solid for us since he got here and i hope it will be the same thing with Cook.

Due to his track record it’s safe and reasonable to assume he probably will miss time.
It’s basic survival to take into account a persons history as you assess them.

By your logic you could have a girlfriend who goes out and cheats regularly but because it’s a new week you decide to give her the benefit of the doubt that it won’t happen again.

Great way to wind up with a sore on your Peter.

Wouldn't know about that. Been married to a wonderful woman for 30 years now. Your analogy is flawed by pessimism.

And it is not "safe and reasonable to assume" (you know what they say about that word) that he will miss eight games as you declared as pretty much a certainty.

Oh, and do those sores hurt? Never had one.

Well I guess I better just go with a full disclosure...about 20 or so years ago I got crabs....twice.

He is actually a bad blocker

I wouldn’t know. Mine fell off after the no call. Let me go check the freezer and get back to you.
$20 says the max he plays in the regular season is 10 games.

Not taking that bet because you'll be pulling for him to get injured. Hopefully not consciously, but still the added negative vibes will be there. It happened last year with Meredith. I'm all for minimizing the gris gris this season.

Here's to Armstead going ...

19-0 Baby!
