Honestly I don't even think cooks was even good. There were plenty of other WRs we could have gotten that are just as if not more productive than he has been this year

yeah he has good hands but hasnt shown any playmaking ability. essentially he is lance moore up to this point.
*** he did start looking better toward the end of the year though.

Cooks is fantastic.
Any ways, D Thomas was a 4th round pick.

Well that is ridiculous. He wasn't the deep threat we wanted early in the year, but he was a 1st down machine. He was beating teams deep at the time of his injury too.

Weren't many at the point he was injured.
At the time of his injury (week 11), Brees has a 111 Rating when throwing his direction (3rd best among rookies). Had a drop rate of 3.64 (2nd best among rookies).
He caught 81.5% of the passes thrown his way (best in NFL)
We also expanded his role once Stills came back, and he was consistently getting behind defenses the last few games. 4 deep balls in the last 3 games (4th most in the NFL in that period) with 121 yards and 2 TDs on 3 catches. He did drop 1 TD though
If anything, he showed that he's a much better possession receiver than I thought he would be.
