I just think people are not being thoughtful when understanding Cooks, his role and value to this offense and especially to McVay
Cooks makes Cooper Kupp a better WR... when Cooks is healthy teams must account for him and that opens up things for Kupp
When Cooks isn't healthy... you get the Cooper Kupp you had in the last 8 games of the season
so in addition to the cap not making sense... it doesn't make sense given the current configuration of this offense
Which is why I think they need a high enough draft pick. They would have to replace him in the draft with someone that has a deep threat skillset and is polished enough to contribute right away.
