UPDATE: Cooks for Keenan+ THE SEQUEL

Postby cvbuc » Fri May 26, 2017 1:14 pm

I didn't want to hijack the other Cooks/Allen thread going around right now and can really use some expert advice:

For team 1 in sig

Woke up to a straight up offer of their Keenan for my B. Cooks. I hate offers like this. I have them valued fairly equally with maybe Cooks being a few spots higher in my personal WR rankings. Having said that - if I can improve my squad/depth - these are the type of opportunities to make that happen as the other owner clearly values Cooks more than Keenan.

So - what more should I ask for as a counter:

The other owner won the chip two seasons ago but is in complete rebuild mode. Their top assets are:
Keenan
Diggs
Crowder
2017 picks of note: 1.07, 2.10, 2.11, 3.02
They own three 2018 firsts

Would appreciate some thoughts on a possible counter?
Note: they are also a Carolina fan, so Cam and Kbenji could be in play if needed.

Much thanks!

I personally wouldn't entertain the offer at all.

Cooks is good and rarely injured. The Pats gave up a first round pick to get him, that never happens. He might not be the focal point right off that bat, but he will be one day.

I'm one of the few that prefers Allen, but since he's coming to you, definitely ask for more.

Currently own both and would value cooks a decent amount above keenan at the moment. Id stick with cooks unless you really like allen also

Cooks!!! Keenan is one more serious injury from being in the fantasy wasteland. Like I said in the other thread cooks is only 23 and I think the last 2 years are his floor. Not comparing him to AB but who's to say he couldn't become close at the pace he's going. Great route, steady hands, and o yea blazing speed. Cooks isn't undervalued but definitely underappreciated

Interesting... comments say to stay with Cooks but poll is really pushing to sell.
