Not having a guy like Juju breaking tackles and having that speed to get open really hurt us.

Cooks is 29 and Juju is only 25. Give that money to Juju going forward

I don't disagree but we have no idea what the Chiefs are thinking. Obviously, they're interested in Cooks but we really don't know why yet.

There should be a lot of trades since so many stars just got injured last 2 weeks and certain teams are in the shitter.

I don't expect anything from the Chiefs but you never know with our boy Brent Leach

And the ridiculous idea that we shouldn't improve in any area possible with the players available to us because we have greater need elsewhere is one of the dumbest, most short sighted, dim witted ideas I've seen on CP.

You should see social media.

"But we need defense! WHY?!?!"

EDIT: Even worse, most of them think we need to trade for a CB. They've completely forgotten we just spent a 1st round pick on one.

It's like people think Veach is saying "I am going to trade for Cooks INSTEAD of a pass rusher or a tackle". They just don't grasp the idea that not every position group is available at all times.

Haha, oops!

Why can't we take on cooks? If Juju plays like he is the rest of the season we can't afford him anyways. Getting a guy like Cooks would be awesome for this offense and its a friendly contract for the next two years.

Yep.

What makes people think that trading for Cooks would eliminate the possibility of bringing back Juju? If anything....they could get rid of MVS and keep both Cooks AND Juju.

They could keep all 3 in the event that Hardman becomes too expensive to keep.

I dont' think JuJu is here long term.

O.city 10-26-2022 10:28 AM

I also don't understand why the Commanders aren't offloading all they can. They suck and they have a bunch of DL they aren't gonna keep and or pay.

They could but I don't see MVS as some amazing WR that needs to be kept around. He'll serve his purpose as a deep threat this season but I'd rather have Cooks considering he's only a year older.

He’s by far our biggest FA to keep IMO. Only guy who is a WR1 on the team.

He’s gonna be valuable as Kelce ages too.

I simply don't think most franchises have that.

What teams out there can you say are (a.) hopeless, and (b.) have a person in charge who will patiently allow the coach/GM to trade off parts of the house in order to build and develop a new one?

Patriots with Belichick
Steelers with Tomlin
Jags with Peterson
maaaaaaybe Dennis Allen with the Saints, maybe.

End of list.

Even more than coaches, I think it's an ownership/GM situation.

Does the owner trust the GM to reboot? This may and probably does mean new coaching staff, too.

problem is, if that GM hired the current staff, that's a bit of a problem.

I think he'd stay if they were willing to pay him. It just is going to depend on what his demands are.
