You aren’t winning anything with this group of players and the Texans aren’t winning anything soon. You are better off getting future picks.
Who said anything about trading forever? You must be really attached to this current roster... are we making the playoffs? If someone offers a 2nd/3rd round pick for Cook, you take that deal. Pierce, I would keep though.
#1. Good thing you are not the GM. #2. You don't trade rookies or 2nd year players. #3. Cooks...if you can get a 2nd for him.....MAYBE a high 3rd.
The Packers aren't one player away from a massive turnaround, but it feels like GM Brian Gutekunst needs to make a move to try to aid a careening ship. Rumors connecting Chase Claypool to Green Bay persist, and Jerry Jeudy could also be an option, but I like Cooks as a better fit if the Packers could pry him away from Houston. Given the Pack's struggles to integrate fledgling wideouts, is it worth the gamble to import another young player? In 2022, Green Bay would be better with a veteran receiver who has proven he can fit in multiple offenses. Cooks still owns world-class speed and is a consistent downfield threat, something Aaron Rodgers is missing. Yes, Gutekunst would have to do some cap gymnastics down the road to make Cooks' contract work in 2023. But if he wants to turn around a struggling offense this year, Cooks would be my pick. https://www.nfl.com/news/2022-nfl-t...-fits-packers-should-get-wr-brandin-cooks-for Let's get GB and MIN in a bidding war for Cooks... https://thevikingage.com/2022/10/27/minnesota-vikings-linked-trade-houston-texans-brandin-cooks/ Throw the LAR's in for good measure... https://www.turfshowtimes.com/2022/10/26/23425231/trade-rumors-brandin-cooks-rams-texans
