Helter Skelter » Saints general manager Mickey Loomis says 2018

Pro Bowl tight end Jared Cook has agreed to the terms of a free-agent contract with New Orleans.The 6-foot-5 Zach Brown Jersey , 254-pound Cook is a 10-year veteran coming off his best season yet. He caught 68 passes for 896 yards and six touchdowns with Oakland last season and was named to the Pro Bowl for the first time.Tight ends accounted for relatively modest production in the Saints’ eighth-ranked offense last season. Three tight ends — Ben Watson, Josh Hill and Dan Arnold — combined for 63 catches for 735 yards and four touchdowns. And Watson, who led the position group with 35 catches for 400 yards and two TDs, has retired.Cook Devin Bush Jersey , who turns 32 next month, was a third-round draft choice out of South Carolina in 2009 and was acquired by Tennessee on a draft-day trade with New England.He spent his first four seasons in Tennessee, where in 2011 he had 49 catches for 759 yards and three touchdowns.Cook later spent three seasons with the St. Louis Rams and one season with Green Bay before joining Oakland two seasons ago. For his career, Cook has 425 catches for 5 Diontae Johnson Jersey ,464 yards and 25 touchdowns. The Browns not only got a great player tonight, but they also got a great contract.With the Giants making the massive downpayment on Odell Beckham, Jr.’s five-year, $90 million extension Justin Layne Jersey , the Browns get Beckham for the next five years at a total payout of $77 million.That’s an average of $15.4 million per year, well below the current top of the market at the position — at a time when the market likely will be spiking with deals coming for the likes of Tyreek Hill and Julio Jones.Of course, Beckham may want a new deal, sooner or later. Or sooner than later. His 2019 salary of $16.75 million is fully guaranteed Benny Snell Jr. Jersey , as is $2.75 million of his 2020 base salary. Rolling guarantees apply to the balance of the 2020 salary and most of his 2021 salary.Still, the Browns have gone all in for 2019, and they’ll worry about keeping Beckham happy in 2020 when 2020 comes.
