Saints sign WR Brandin Cooks to a 2-year, $13 million deal

Again with this....he didnt' complain about getting the ball enough - he said something after a game where he didn't get A SINGLE TARGET....not one in a game where we put up 600 yards or some nonsense. Dude was still on his rookie contract, he had to say something or it would've became a habit to shut him out of the gameplan and then they would've been able to come back come contract time and say well...............

The other thing, which is an alleged BTW...that he said about Drew's arm not being strong enough - well...............

If a team puts up 600 yards in a game and a WR doesn’t get a SINGLE target I think that’s more an issue with that WR, no? Obviously the team is throwing it to anyone who is open. However I remember he said it after a game where he had like 3 catches for 27 yards in a win or something like that. Wish I could recall who it was against. Falcons maybe? Idk

Also, the last 2 years Cooks was here Brees threw for 4870 and 5,208 yards so I don’t want to hear anything about arm strength issues. His last 2 seasons where he didn’t break 3k? Sure. But when throwing 5k yards? Nonsense.
