In 2017, the Saints gave Cooks and their 4th (#118) to NE for the Patriot's 1st (#32) and 3rd (#103).
NE picked up Cooks' fifth year option after trading for him.
Now NE has reportedly given him and their 4th (#136) to the Rams for their 1st (#23)and 6th (#198).

Three teams stepped up to get him, but two of the teams have been willing to part with him after getting him.

Cooks was not a Brady Fave

Cooks wants big $$$$$$$ and he wasn't going to get it from Hoody Genius

So they got value and may draft the top WR with that pick.
