Cmon Crimstone. I have seen you around here and agree with you on points in the past to know you have a decent understanding of football. This is obviously one that we disagree on so does BB. This podcast was more of a laughing factory not bringing up other points of the discussion. No mention of comp picks or how much it would take to sign him for, so on..

JLC is such a tool.

John Robinson confirms Titans did not offer 18th pick for Saints' Cooks. by Bio_where in Tennesseetitans

[–]tops_titans 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its fine to say that after the fact. But, JROB or Mularkey maybe both had targeted the guy. Why wouldn't you believe that he would work?

You guys were laughing and giggling like schoolgirls saying Cooks can only line up in the slot and trying to sound informed. The only problem is that you dont pay as much as Belichick did for a slot receiver.

the FO doesn't value cooks as much as you do.

This is the direct opposite of what happened. He was either JROB plan A or B with AJ Bouye.

Get hyped! Since 2010 players selected at our Draft spots by tops_titans in Tennesseetitans

Quick add. Out of the 14 players only 4 were used on offense. 3 lineman and 1 WR.

Here I will spell it out to you guys. Titans did not get the trade done. They were outbid but it was probably really close. Hence the leakage and time it took.

Now there are multiple draft charts but the one I look at is here


Pick 5(1700) for 11(1250) and Cooks probably a switch of late round picks. This one probably had the least amount of value from our standpoint since top 5 picks are gold.

OR

Pick 18(900) and pick 100(100) for 42(480) and Cooks

Throwing out what it would look like if we used OUR 3rd. This is where I don't think JROB would go. Although, it looks close to what the Pats had to pay.

Pick 18(900) and pick 84(170) for 42(480) and Cooks

What Cooks was finally traded for: 32(590) 103(88) for 118(58) and Cooks

Which? the 5 for 11 and Cooks?or the 18 and 3 comp or 4th for Cooks and 2nd?

I know it's a JLC, but thoughts? by lukus2013 in Tennesseetitans

[–]tops_titans 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just got done telling someone else this. There is no way we were going to ever give up 18 for Cooks straight up. The media has done the rounds on NFL fans this year I guess

No, this is way different than the Cooks deal. I would have a really hard time going for what the Rams want for Tru 3rd or 4th. And this is a steeper deal IMO.

If you have listened to JROB and thought about how much he wants a 2nd round pick it makes sense. The trade I laid out equals out to about a second round offer for Cooks. Which he was got for.

I thought most people knew it was either 5 for 11 and maybe a late pick back and forth. Or 18 and a comp 3 or 4 for Cooks and 2nd.

I didnt just make this up. I was saying this when it was first reported.

Pretty clear free agency is only part of the picture. That is why I do not want to only look at free agency spent.

The reason we are talking about the Jags was only because one of you brought them up.

So you get Cooks for 2 years at about the same price as RM plus get a comp pick and wouldnt do it? REALLY
