I'd rather have Cooks. Amari Cooper mentally shuts down and doesn't show up on the road or in big games. 

Cooks quite literally quit and walked out on the Texans last season because of pouting.

Is there anything that pays to make dumb posts on the EMB?

I wish. I’d retire and sell my firm.

It can't possibly be a coincidence that four teams have traded him and he's only 30. For a guy who has been as productive as he is that is strange.

Anyway back to the chairman of body armor,  I love the drinks. My son always chooses body armor for his sports drink. 

I'm ready.  I'm a believer in this company and where I can take it. 

 

FYI, RB Abram Smith (who I really liked out of Baylor last year) is crushing the XFL. I’d be shocked if he wasn’t in someone’s camp this year.

That was gonna be my response. He was getting paid really well and walked out for a couple weeks cause he didn’t get traded. Also when was the last time Brandin cooks did something in a big game or played in a big game? It might have been when he was with rams in 2018 during the playoff run. That was five years ago. Some of that is playing on the Texans but really that’s a half decade ago now

No, only in your biased view. I don't mean that as an insult, just as an observation from your posts. You should watch both players. Allen initiates contact when he doesn't need to do so, Hurts does when he needs to do so. As the O evolves for the Eagles with a better RB, Hurts will need to do so less and less. Allen, because he does it as part of his hero ball style will continue to play the way he does. Watch all the games of both teams and you will see the difference.

That’s fun. We’ll see if Howie trades any of those picks for a player this offseason. 

You max out at 4 comp picks and the comp picks are always worse than anticipated.

Unless Brian Johnson is hired somewhere next HC cycle, you can have 7 total comp picks. I think that’s what 49ers have this year

Epps, Edwards, and Seumalo were all underrated glue guys on this team.  But they were all surrounded by more talented players.  

Every unit is a careful mix of talent guys and the inexpensive glue guys.

Multi-year, multi-million $$ deals for those 3 should be reserved for teams with huge cap space to burn that are just desperate to get a quality, proven player.

A talented team with extensive cap obligations can't give those glue guys that kind of money.  There are other unheralded players on other teams, surrounded by less talent, that could come into the picture here and perform comparably to Epps/Edwards/Seumalo.

He actually had a good playoff run with the rams particularly against the saints (7 for 107) and then against the patriots in the SB (8 for 120). However since that point in time he’s had two mediocre seasons and 2 good. Granted he’s been on bad teams since.

4 is the max.  The only way you could get to 7 is a scenario where you get the 4 max comp picks and you have 3 minorities that same year hired to HC or GM positions by another team.

Cooks has always struck me as a guy who puts up decent numbers but never has a huge impact on games. Like I said, there has to be a good reason as to why so many teams have traded him despite some pretty good production. That said it is an upgrade for Dallas, but to the guy saying he's better than Amari Cooper you need to lay off the dope.

He’s capping their comp picks at 4 in that tweet and they aren’t "always” worse.

You should watch more football before going so hard on the condescension. Hurts, gets hit too much because of designed runs. Allen gets hit too much because when he scrambles, he initiates contact. They both get hit too much but for different reasons. One is resolvable by scheme, Hurts, one it not because it is psychology, Allen. But, its just an opinion based on watching all of each teams games last season, Bro.

Better Cooks than Hopkins who I thought the Cowboys were going to ultimately get.

Smarter to trade a 5th for Cooks than a 1st or 2nd for /Hopkins. Was hoping they'd trade a 1st for Hopkins...

You would too Texans suck. They even drove off Hopkins.

Not defending Cooks but didn't Mariota do the same to the Falcons?  Both are bad moves from them last year.  I'm not thrilled wtih Mariota nor do I think Cooks is going to make a difference for the Cowboys.
