Cooks Said There Were No Surprises By Belichick in Trade – For anyone who remembers the Richard Seymour trade, the one involving Brandin Cooks went dramatically different after the now-former Patriots receiver said that Belichick personally called him before the deal went down.
Cooks was dealt to Los Angeles earlier this week along with a fourth-round selection in exchange for the Rams’ 1st round pick (23rd overall) and sixth-round draft pick.
“Belichick gave me a call hours before it happened,” Cooks said on Thursday via a video posted by Joe Curley of the Ventura County Star.
