I've got no interest in extending Cooks at $16m a year. I like Flowers too, but $11m seems a bit rich for him as well.
Cooks simply isn't worth $16m - I'm not convinced he is on the same page as Brady, he is a bit of a one trick pony (but a good one), and his hands are questionable. I would re-sign him to a decent deal - maybe around $10m a year - but that won't be enough. Edelman is a better player and we only give him $4m a year.
I don't want to give up on him but I would consider trading him if we could get a 2nd round pick back. I think Dorsett, while not as good, could provide a decent facsimile of the deep threat Cooks is, and we could reinvest the pick in the defence or our QB of the future.
