He must have killed it in OTA's.

How much do you think he got? I'd say 10 per and 30 guaranteed. All I know is I'm glad we're not paying him.

I'm guessing 5 for 80; 45 guaranteed.

per year? He's not a top 10 WR and the Rams would be crazy to give him that IMO.

2014-82nd in receiving yards (only started 7 games as rookie)
2015-14th in receiving yards
2016- 7th in receiving yards
2017- 11th in receiving yards


I mean he feels pretty close to 10th

Cooks last two years

2016- 7th in total receiving yards and 14th in Yards per reception

2017- 11th in total receiving yards and 7th in yards per reception

and he is only 24


16 per year isnt really that crazy considering the market, but whatever I guess

Yeah catching passes from Brees and Brady. And there’s more to how good a player is then just their single season base receiving stats.

His yards per reception have also been near the top cowboy

actually


2017- 10th
2016- 7th
2015- 13th


Brandin Cooks is still only 24.


Cooks is a REALLY good WR, and he will only get better. This is fair value for him

Incorrect


I said receiving yards. I didnt say receiving yards for wide receivers


Your 2015 and 2017 took out Gronk who was ahead of him


But you are absolutely correct his production warrants this contract

Congrats to him. He's a good receiver so he deserves it. I'm just glad we're not the ones paying him. Cuz if we was Id be pissed.
