re: isnt the titans #18 a better offer then just getting Malcolm Butler from pats?

quote:

he hasn't signed it because he wants more money, as I think everyone knows, the patriots don't do that,

He hasn't signed it yet because there is (an unrealistic) chance someone gives him an offer he can bring to the Pats to match or decline.

In the end he will end up signing it and playing with the Pats.

quote:

---

as I think everyone knows, the patriots don't do that, they pay players cheap and when they want to get paid they try to move them to another team for draft picks or trades

This just isn't true. They literally just gave out a big money contract to another CB.

What they won't do is give someone more than they think they are worth. But they have big time paid several players throughout the years.

As for the OP questions, I wouldn't take 18 or Butler straight up for Cooks but if I had to choose it would be the proven Butler over a crapshoot draft pick.
