The Film Room: Brandin Cooks Is A Premier Deep Threat

The decision to trade the 57th overall selection of the 2020 NFL Draft for Brandin Cooks and a 2022 fourth round pick was a tame decision by Houston Texans standards. For most franchises, adding a pseudo number one wide receiver would be a focal point of the offseason. Not for Houston. This trade is instead a return to normalcy. It’s nothing like the hordes of players and picks exchanged when they traded Jadeveon Clowney and DeAndre Hopkins, and traded for Laremy Tunsil. Despite this, Bill O’Brien’s newest decision is a fascinating one with lots to unpack.
