Alex Marvez, Sirius XM Host, claims Cooks will be an Eagle. For their second round pick. Dunno how respectable he is. Also, I can't get twitter to post on here with the formatting. I post the URL and it just posts a URL. https://twitter.com/alexmarvez/status/837666412491653121?s=09 https://mobile.twitter.com/alexmarvez/status/837667677342732289 Nm it worked

CyberPingu posted:2nd seems a bit too much Dude is younger than Wentz, about the same age as Corey Davis and Mike Williams. Has turned in the seasons of: 2014 - 53/550/3 2015 - 84/1,348/9 2016 - 78/1,173/8 Only concern is that he's on the last year of his rookie deal. Would need to get a long term deal done with him.

Titans don't have a second round pick and may not want to pay a 1st for Cooks even though they have 2 of them

Has turned in the seasons of: Your concern should be that Cooks might be just a cog in a high-powered passing offense led by Drew Brees. It's not as bad as if he were the #2 guy in that offense (those almost never work out), but his catch rate isn't spectacular and it's an extremely safe bet that Carson Wentz won't throw for 5,200 yards next year. I think a 2nd for Cooks is too high given what his contract situation is. The Eagles aren't exactly in "win now" mode--they should be building for long-term success.

Eagles were also in love with Cooks back in the 2014 draft and were going to draft him until the Saints snapped him up right before them. (And then the Packers snapped up their last guy on their draft board, Clinton-Dix, so we traded down and got...Marcus Smith..)

It's smart for them, but I think it's better for the Eagles to sign him to a new deal early rather than wait for him to hit free agency next year. Stats-wise, his last two seasons have been very solid but it's very, very unlikely he'll be able to replicate those results in Philly. He is a major step up from what they have, but then so is any street free agent WR, really

CyberPingu posted:2nd seems a bit too much I think so too, but I'd do the deal if they are sure they can resign him. I'd much prefer to give them Mychal Kendricks and a 3rd.

Febreeze posted:Wait a minute I don't follow the Saints closely but I thought Cooks was good, why are the Saints looking to trade him The reports say the Saints really aren't looking to trade Cooks, along with some suggestion that Cooks may be looking to go be a true #1 somewhere else, but that the Saints are just listening to see if there's a market there. I mean, Cooks was a first-rounder in 2014 that panned out (only player from the draft that panned out, good god it hurts to look at the rest of that draft), so you'd need a first+ to be worth trading. EDIT: that same article re: "eagles likely landing spot" lists the Saints as wanting a first.

Eagles, Patriots, Lions, and Colts are the teams in play for LB Paul Worrilow. He always did great for my IDP fantasy league  Eagles for sure have Mychal Kendricks on the trade block. Eagles have placed a 2nd round tender on TE Trey Burton.

Gruden seems like a good coach, or at least good enough to keep around. I remember in his first year the controversy with Gruden not wanting to start RG3 and taking away RG3 privileges, and it looked like Gruden was a dead man walking. Maybe the Skins are figuring poo poo out. *Gives up Kirk Cousins for a 6th and Mark Sanchez*

Good enough definitely seems to be the case, and it would be nice to have some consistency from year to year. I still don't understand the FO, or WTF is happening with our GM, but it's definitely better than before.

I still don't understand the FO, or WTF is happening with our GM, but it's definitely better than before. The McCloughan situation aside I won't totally poo poo on the team's handling of Kirk Cousins. He wants a deal that is closer to Cutler and Stafford where he's your QB whether you like him or not for 4-5 years rather than the Tannehill or Dalton deal where you can move on after a couple of years. The Andrew Luck deal probably drove up the minimum bid too. Bruce Allen is probably looking at the Bears being stuck with Jay Cutler for years and worried that'll be case if they extend Cousins (I think that'd be the case). The criticism I would have is that, one way or another, you pick a direction and go all in. Either call everyone in the league looking for a trade partner or give him the extension.

The market has shown that QBs are at a premium. They didn't necessarily have to offer him a long term deal, but they were offering him a contract worth $15M a year when Brock Osweiler was getting $72M over four years ($37M guaranteed) and Sam Bradford got $36M over two years ($26M guaranteed). Now he'll get $24M and any offer has to start there, plus he's guaranteed to hit FA next year. Washington completely flubbed the negotiation and now has to pay out the nose or lose their QB. Also I feel like we can criticize them for stupid poo poo like this (found by FizFashizzle): quote:Appearing on 106.7 The Fan in D.C., the Washington Post's Mike Jones referred to NFL Network's "report" of a three-way trade involving Kirk Cousins, Tony Romo, and the 49ers as "fake."

The market isn't broken. Cousins is a proven starter in an incredibly supply limited position in a league with a constantly expanding salary cap. Unless you already have someone on your roster there is nothing to move on to.
