It took Cook a while to understand SP's offense and get into sync with Brees. Once he did, there was no better TE in the league.
In Cook's last 7 games, he scored 7 TDs and had over 540 yards in receptions. Play that out over a full year and that would result in nearly 1,200 yards and 15 TDs. That's better than Kelce. Actually Kelce had a little over 1,250 yards last year, but Cook had more TDs than Kelce, 9 to 5.
As we move forward into 2020, the Saints added Sanders, a healthy Kamara and another major asset that few are discussing because of our excitement about his development into a QB1, Taysom Hill. As discussed in the past, when the Saints tried to get Hill more active in receiving in mid 2018, Hill had trouble adjusting to the speed of the ball in flight. Hill fixed that in the offseason and became a pretty disruptive receiver especially in the seam and we all know the fun only begins when Hill starts to run with the ball.
No one has to be told it takes double coverage to at least slow Mike Thomas down. Shut him down? No one does that. MT is just too good. Sanders was a lethal move. Here's Sanders stats when he had a legit dominant WR1 on the other side, Demarius Thomas - now MT.
And we will very likely have the top RB WR in the league back healthy in Kamara.
A LB can't guard Cook nor can a safety. Those are mismatches. With all the other extreme receiving talent on the 2020 team, how will teams double cover Cook? And we all know Brees loves him those tall strong WRs. That's "choose your poison decisions" for defenses. Can anyone tell me why Cook won't put up 1.200 yards and 15 TDs this year?
I think it will be 1,200 yards and 10-14 TDs, #1 TE1 type numbers because Hill will grab a few of those TDs playing TE type role. If not, I'd bet Cook at 15 plus TDs
