Saints Looking To Trade WR Brandin Cooks

Hrm...got to wonder why.  I know we like to make fun of dumpster fires and what not, but I thought Cooks was a big time player for them?  Or did I miss the memo that outside of a few plays against us, he's horrible?

They're stacked at WR, Cooks has the first round contract that other teams can utilize, and he's actually a good player.

He's great trade bait for a team that has more holes than swiss cheese on their defense. They need to draft a bunch of young cheap and good talent over the next few years in order to try and win a ring for Breesus. 

It makes sense for them to ship him out for a high draft pick.

Damn....Titans are looking to take firm control over that Division 

Houston's D is good enough to keep them in it... And if they get anything at all from the QB position they should be favorites.

Thanks!  Great points!

If I recall correctly, I think he was seeing less targets last season as the year went on and was pissed about it.

Sean Payton made it clear that they need pass rushers, moving Cooks to Tennessee and swapping picks ensures them the pass rusher that they want at 5.

Or they could secretly LOVE Fournette and make sure they get in front of us to take him or that pass rush that they covet. 

Also Thomas is their clear cut number 1 receiver

This is also true, he's a good young receiver but he did complain about his targets during the season

    • Basically agree.  He is the one of that bunch that offers upgraded pass catching along with he is supposed to be kind of special.   Then you have the OL and the ideas that if they perform you can have JAG backs and still do well. So okay we could be fine.  But Brooks is important and to me that receiving element sets him apart.  So there sure is something riding on him.     What strikes me as incongruent is people over in Atlanta or those that follow them look at Penix with a third surgery and act like it is no big deal.      And we are on pins and needles over Brooks.  Either they should worry a lot more or we should worry a lot less.  
    • I usually go a game or two optimist over the consensus here but this is too early for me to say. I need to see some players on the field.  I am not feeling real optimistic though.  
    • Okay as a ‘take CJ’ fan I actually don’t obsess over CJ and Houston, contrary to the narrative.  But I thought I picked up some noise that his OL left a lot to be desired.    Not a single Beyce supporter would judge him harshly if he had a crappy OL. We all know that.    So be fair about it.  A QB needs to be protected.  Especially a guy that gets to his spot and wants to finish the play from there. Which CJ is.
