Willis, Pickett and Corral aren’t better than Mills. Pickett could be but he’s older than Mills now. Willis and Corral have great physical tools but Willis will never be accurate enough to be a big time QB and Corral is small
And it would be dumb to trade him. He is a really good receiver on a good contract. Leader of the offense, good for a young qb, etc.
It depends on the return. I tend to think they wouldn’t get more than a 3rd. If you can get a 2nd, it might be worth it. But they have to have to plan for how to replace him. I don’t think you can just trade cooks and draft a WR and say, go get it Mills! Cooks absolutely helps with developing Mills or any other young QB we may have.
You should go back and read the rest of the quotes from that interview. Pretty sure Cooks would welcome a trade right about now.
- Watson absolutely! This trade will be foundational to our rebuild and will tell us a lot about Caserio's negotiating skills. - Tunsil hopefully... depends on the return, but yeah he doesn't seem to enjoy playing football for this team, so lets send him to Bengals for a 1st + other assets. - Cooks should stay. He's a solid vet receiver who only help Mills' and other young WR's development.
We all know the one with the most power is Toro...closely followed by the ghost of Charley Casserly...
