dbfla10 Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 statistically these two are very similar. Who has the more value... Bills gave up a lot for diggs, Texans only a second rounder for cooks. I like Diggs better as a player, but knowing a 2nd rounder would've got Cooks, i'd rather the 2nd for Cooks and see what the 1st rounder would land the Bills. 2 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First it is Brandin Cooks Second it is Stefon Diggs But More importantly...... Diggs is BY FAR the superior player. Cooks is a walking Concussion that is now on his 4th team.

dbfla10 Posted April 10, 2020 Author Share Posted April 10, 2020 "BY FAR" is a stretch. Look at their stats, they are nearly identical... I agree I like Diggs better, but the Bills definitely over paid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augie Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Diggs got a nice price for a reason. Teams only sign Cooks to get rid of him. He’s a hot potato. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is out of his mind, and Texans fans are about to jump off the roof. Someone put this thread out of its misery.

Stats from 2018/19 combined (what have you done for me lately) Cooks: 122 Rec, 1,787 yrds, 7 TDs Diggs: 165 Rec, 2,151 yrds, 15 TDs Diff: 43 more catches, ~400 more yards, 8 more TDs Not nearly identical. Actually, quite different. 9 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orlando Tim Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 The difference in total compensation for the two recievers is one round basically, I definitely think Diggs is one round better then Cooks and I looked briefly I think Cooks is more expensive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nester Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Worst thread by far this off season. 14 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: All the picks value came up to the 18th overall pick. If people think that is to much for a Proven WR entering his prime with years of cost control (4 to be exact). I don't think they know what value really is especially this year when the draft process is so messed up with much less info. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jahnyc Posted April 10, 2020 Share Posted April 10, 2020 Not sure that Cooks will be able to stay healthy. I believe he had a couple of significant concussions last season that kept him out of a number of games. I also think he has a prior history with concussions (at least five in total). You can never know whether a player will be healthy in any given season or over longer periods, but Cooks' concussion history is concerning. For this reason alone, I would rather have Diggs.
