I heard a Saints guy critique Cooks as a speed guy with good hands, a very good WR. But the Saints tried him with bubble screens and jet sweeps and Cooks just doesn't have elusiveness to do it. Thats not his game. He said Cooks has no wiggle to his game and that he can't do what Tavon Austin can do in that regard. Cooks also is not a contested ball guy. What Cooks is is a speed guy who can take the top off a defense and that really wasn't the best fit in N.O. The Saints guy said Brees doesn't have a strong enough arm to take advantage of Cooks strength.
So we shouldn't expect to see Cooks do well with jet sweeps or screens, according to the Saints guy.
