We could have kept our 27th pick and taken a defensive player there and drafted John Brown in the 3rd round (Arizona used that pick on him). It won't be popular, but Brown has been more explosive than Cooks this season. Plus we could have taken Borland in the 2nd instead of a massive project (and looking like a bust) Stan Jean-Baptiste.

Just saying.

I'd rather let Payton spend our draft picks on offensive players. We haven't shown the ability to draft defensive players. We usually do pretty well in FA there.

Well since he's been more explosive than Cooks this season, he was clearly the better draft pick. Cooks was getting behind defenses pretty regularly once we changed his role up. Cooks fits a variety of roles for us.

The issue I have is taking a project in the 2nd round at the corner position. In our post 2013 position, we should have been looking for immediate contributors. Hell, I wouldn't have been opposed to going WR, WR in the 1st 2 rounds.
