The New England Patriots just two months ago won Super Bowl LI against the Atlanta Falcons in what most people consider as the greatest comeback in NFL Super Bowl history. When the 2017-2018 NFL season comes along, the New England Patriots are not only the defending Super Bowl champions, but they are also favored to win the Super Bowl again. If the New England Patriots, this early in the off season, are already favored to win the Super Bowl again next year, imagine if they could get their hands on a top caliber wide receiver like the New Orleans Saints Brandin Cooks. Getting Brandin Cooks would not only make the New England Patriots a great team, they could possibly be the most dominant team in the NFL.
Of all the teams that are interested in acquiring Brandin Cooks, the New England Patriots may have the inside the track, according to a report from CSN. Aside from the New England Patriots, teams that are interested in acquiring Brandin Cooks are the Philadelphia Eagles and the Tennessee Titans.
Acquiring Brandin Cooks from the New Orleans Saints is not that impossible for New England Patriots considering their history and their head coach, Bill Belichick. Bill Bellichick and the New England Patriots have a knack of acquiring players that either played against them in regular season games or in joint training camp practices. Another thing is that once Bill Bellichick has an eye on a certain player, it's hard to stop him from getting that player. What Bill Belichick wants, Bill Belichick gets.
One factor to consider when thinking about Brandin Cooks going to the New England Patriots is their history. Back in 2015, the New England Patriots and the New Orleans Saints had a pre season game in New Orleans.
During that game, Brandin Cooks torched the New England Patriots s he caught four passes for 117 yards and a 45-yard touchdown. After the game, Bill Belichick sought after Brandin Cooks for a handshake and a brief chat. From that moment on, Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots were infatuated with Brandin Cooks.
When news of Brandin Cooks wanted to be trade, the New England Patriots acted swiftly as they offered their 32nd overall pick in this year's draft, as Nola reported. The New Orleans Saints rejected the offer.
Even if the New Orleans Saints turned down the offer for Brandin Cooks, this is the New England Patriots and bill Belichick that we're talking about. They don't give up that easily. What Bill Belichick wants, Bill Belichick gets.
