I was worried about drafting Cooks b/c he'd have to be an impact player from day

He is fricking awesome.


I loved the pick when it was made ... and, so far, it looks like a most brilliant pick.


Love the kid.

I started Brees as my QB and Cooks as one of my WR's. I also have the Saints -3 and the over at 50.5

That was a great play for the home team.

well WRs except big/fast guys who can go downfield are not often big producers in year 1

even calvin johnson only had like 750 yards as a rookie

This.

Perfect fit, skills, and temperament for this offense. It was a no-brainer.

It's not even like he's doing gimmick plays. He's running all of the routes.

Brees is an x-factor, I think he speeds up a rookie's timetable by about 10 games

The biggest thing with him is he gets it mentally. Dudes only like 21 too.

not everyone pays attention to lowly osu in the pac.

I had complete faith he'd contribute, but even I am surprised how he has hit the ground running and showing he'll be a major contributor.

Teams on our schedule are on notice. Makes the O that much more lethal.
