Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Tim Patrick

Sunday, October 26, 8:23 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks could be dealt ahead of the trade deadline. The Saints season isn't going anywhere, so they might as well get something for the veteran wideout. If traded, Cooks would make history as the most traded player before the deadline. Ahead of Week 8, Cooks has 14 receptions for 127 receiving yards and has been held out of the end zone. The 32-year-old hasn't experienced much success in 2025, but can still contribute in this league. The Saints offense has struggled badly, so a move elsewhere should help Cooks' value.

The Jacksonville Jaguars have acquired veteran wide receiver Tim Patrick from the Detroit Lions in exchange for a 2026 sixth-round pick, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The 31-year-old recorded 33 catches for 394 yards and three touchdowns in 16 games with Detroit last year. The Lions' decision to move on from Patrick signals an internal belief in third-round rookie Isaac TeSlaa, who was a standout performer in the preseason. In Jacksonville, Patrick will likely step into the team's WR3 role next to Brian Thomas Jr. and Travis Hunter. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.
