And if Cooks is would rather play out his contract than sign now? What then?

Exactly. Why wouldn't Cooks want to "bet on himself"? He would stand to make much more if he had a choice just like Sammy did.

IMO, you can't play scared. The "oh my, we might lose him to some other team or we we can save a lot of money so we better pay him now" isn't always possible or the right approach. Just like Nick Foles. Just like Tavon Austin. Just like Olgetree. All 3 were paid too soon.

Besides, it isn't the end of the world by losing a 1rst RD pick which isn't guaranteed to succeed anyway. Especially where the Rams might be picking. Everyone was panicking when we didn't\couldn't\wouldn't resign Sammy Watkins. What did they do? They signed a WR who might even be better than Sammy. If Cooks cannot be resigned, they will find someone else to fill his spot.



#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood

  And it needs to be a player they don't trade away soon after
