Jared Cook is an old man. His best season was with us because outside of MT everyone else sucked.

That "old man" led all TE's except for one in TD's (9) and led all TE's with more than nine catches in yards per reception (16.4). That's only one TD less than George Kittle and Travis Kelce combined! And that came in just seven starts. Not too bad.

Jared Cook will eventually be sharing snaps with Trautman. Or better yet we can run two tight ends all day who can catch as well as block. I like Hill for what he's done but he's not really a good receiver. Most of his passes have come after a chip block when he releases into space for an easy catch from Drew.

Huge mistake not spending the extra mil for Kevin Zeitler and wasting that money on Warford - when the Lions let someone go, that's telling you something...

Side note - didn't think Warford played all that poorly in New Orleans though. |

I just wonder... Did he abide by the Popeyes Sammich code meals Peat did/does? Peat did get paid after all.

I was about to say that it takes two parties to make a deal. The Saints may have been willing to pay the extra million, but he would have wanted to actually be here. Player deals are not made in a vacuum. Don't forget he was coming from Cincy so he may not have even needed to move from his home when he chose Cleveland.

While I applaud the cap discipline, I've never understood (more apparent in MLB) why teams will overpay for second, third tier players and the pay scale is not in sync when the gap in talent is overwhelming greater... Never believed Warford justified that kind of money, especially when Detroit had grown tired of his act... And while KMajor was correct to point out Zeitler's interest to stay in the Midwest, his agent even said he'd hoped New Orleans would've made more push, sell for his services... |
It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...
