Gotta admit, I'm a little bummed about the Saints picking Cooks. Never saw him as available to us, but have to give credit where credit's due: Payton's going to squeeze every ounce of his speed and ability, of which there's plenty. This looks like a pretty smooth move and good way to replace Sproles' speed.That being the negative, the positive is the Panthers were absolutely sold (put the pick in real fast) on Benjamin. Could be totally wrong on this one but I've pegged him as most-likely-to-bust candidate. There were rumors he blew off a meeting or two with teams... gained weight and is over 240 (Mike Williams territory). Watched his TV spots on NFLN and ESPN, came away thinking he didn't appear switched on. Sure he has a MASSIVE catch radius - so did Dwayne Jarrett. Can't help but see the Panthers letting go their main receivers and banking on a huge unknown. They were fortunate on a number of levels last year; don't see it getting better with the construct of their offense.Falgoons made the right pick but I'm not sweating it... Matthews will be solid for a long time, maybe top tier. But their issues run deeper than one RT. Their defense is straight up lacking in talent. There's no scheming around Umenyiora as your best past rusher.
