How do you know how BB values Kenny Stills, nitwit? Do I really need to spell out how dumb your argument is?



You don't think we shopped Stills around? Sure sounded like we did.

If Stills was just as good as Cooks then he would have produced just as good of numbers, bottom line.

Good players put up good numbers. Production doesn't lie. Hell, you even admitted Cooks disappeared but he still managed to put up 1000 and 9 TDs.

How can a WR that has never had 1000 yards be considered just as good as a guy that's put up back to back seasons of that same total?

That's like saying Taylor Gabriel is just as good as Julio Jones. It's laughable.

We've done several trades with the Pats in the past, so its safe to assume they were some of the first ones we contacted dumbass.

I mean Stills averaged 20 ypc and had a 75% catch rate.

Who's to say he wouldn't be BETTER than Julio given more targets

Hypothetical:

say we did this trade, does anyone that has been following the mock drafts think Zach Cunningham could be available at #32???

Better hands, runs better routes.


Stills is an OK receiver, his ceiling is nowhere near as high as Cooks.

Look at Stills 2014. How the frick can you say he didn't produce?

Go look at the Advancef stats on him from that year. He was one of the highest rated WRs in the league.

How can a guy that has had a 950 yard season on way less targets be considered as good as a guy that goes for 1100 yards on many more targets? Are you really acting like there is much difference here?

How many 2016 1,000 yard WRs are better than 954 yard Deandre Hopkins? There were 25 of them.

Stats aren't cut and dry.

If Stills was worth a first round pick he would have gotten one.


Cooks is worth a first rounder to a lot of teams. Are we just going to disregard what pro teams think?

Do you think Stills would get anywhere near Cooks on an open market?

ya. There are already rumors he(Stills) could get upward of $12mil per year this offseason. My guess is he ends up around $10mil per. Cooks isnt worth much more than that.


I'll ask you like i asked the other guy, what do you think Cooks does that much better than Stills?

Fixed that for ya.

Huge difference between wanting something and getting something, especially where the nfl is concerned.

There is no way I'd trade Cooks for 32. People seem to think his only value is as a trade commodity, but it's no the has value for us as an actual player. Even if he plays the next two years and bounces, people will say we let him go and got nothing for him. No, we'd be getting 2 more seasons' worth of production from him. And considering Brees' age, I value these next 2 years of Cooks' production more than the 32 pick this year.

Assets don't have to be moved to provide value. Cooks is an asset that provides value for the Saints right now. I don't care if he's disgruntled or not. Now, if the Titans offer 18, I'm all in.
