Great Article on Brandin Cooks

quinoa..i'm sure he'll get along with TB.

Thanks, now I have some insight on the kid and I can tell we're going to like his effort and production.

Sean Payton's not stupid, so Cooks is not entirely the picture painted in the article. Thing is, he's so young. Still learning. We'll have to see if he's willing to be a smaller wheel in the toughest machine in the NFL. All of a sudden he's playing for the greatest coach, the greatest QB, across from the greatest TE and and a terrific slot receiver. He's playing in the most complex offense driven by the quickest mind to ever throw a football.

So he'd better bring some humility to training camp. It sounds like he's got the drive, the intelligence and the talent. Could be great. I don't think he'll wash out for not understanding the playbook. And for him, this is an opportunity to learn to be a truly great receiver.

Get your popcorn ready!

(edit: and don't forget he's going up against Gilmore and Butler in practice. Butler in particular has one enormous chip on his shoulder specifically with Cooks. Popcorn, baby. Lots of it!)

I have a friend who went to the saints patriots practices last year. He told me Cooks "looked like a man amongst boys" in the 1 on 1 drills, and in particular, he embarrassed butler on more than one occasion. Butler simply couldn't come close to covering him.

Boy I miss glad he's on our team now

Loved the article but unfortunately it left me believing Cooks will be looking to become a Charger in two years.
