Not involved:
Team A gets: Brandin Cooks
Team B gets: 2015 1st round pick (almost certainly top-2, may be #1 overall)
I would take a top 2 for Cooks
Give me Cooks. Easily.
You have a commodity, hitting 15+ppg in PPR, w one of the elite QBs in real and fantasy football - and already proven to be the no1 WR option on that team, and 2nd behind Graham.
Why sell a super young option that's already proving it in the NFL, for someone who may not?
As good as Cooks is I'd rather have Amari Cooper.
I have two early firsts, which as of today will both be top 4, most likely... top 6 at worst...
Would love to get my hands on Cooper. Would also love white.
Thing is, Cooper's hands have been pretty ugh, and he's routes over the middle have been double ugh. Love him as the big time threat, a la Mike Evans, but what if he ends up in a piss hole w no passing game?
In nonPPR, maybe I make this deal... In PPR, Im hedging my bets on Cooks. Kid is killing it already
Wouldnt blame anyone for taking the deal... I just personally wouldnt
