well for one, the #23 is lot better than #32....I dont know why everyone forgets to mention this. That is a huge difference.
On the other hand, the 3rd/4th rd picks does not move the needle for me. We get the Pats 4th rd pick which is at the bottom of the rd. i think NO & NE swapped a 3rd for a 4th in the deal, not much of a difference.
So yeah, I would say that NE got one good not great year out of Cooks and spun him for a better pick a year later, that is a win in most any book.
go rams.
