Brandin Cooks

I think it'd be smart if the Bengals went after Cooks. A 3rd, a 6th, and AJ Green (for money reasons). The Bengals would snag 3.5 years of a productive 4.3 speed WR to combine with Boyd and Higgins, the Texans get some picks for their new guy who'll come in this offseason and probably can trade AJ to another team for a 6th or so.

Cooks is 27 and under contract for $8m (so ~$4.5m left) this year, $12m in 21, $12m in 22, and $12.5m in 23 with $0 in dead money in all three years.

WR would be set for the Bengals for at least the next 3 years with Boyd/Higgins/Cooks (which is roughly how long they have before Burrow's $ will explode into silly numbers), and with WR set they could focus all their attention on OL.

At first, I was like doubt it. But damn, makes a lot of sense. We get younger and are set up for years at WR all the while dumping 
AJ's dough and it might work out for the Texans in the long run as well. We get a relatively young PROVEN deep threat that is used
to going to different teams and thriving. A 3rd, a 6th and AJ sounds fair to me. Good idea TLL.
