How has Brandin Cooks never made a pro bowl?

5 1,000 yard seasons.
First player in NFL history with 1,000 receiving yards in three consecutive seasons with three different teams.
He never had double digit touchdowns in a season. Is this maybe one of the reasons why he was never named to a pro bowl?

He’s a little pipsqueak cancer who can’t stay on a team longer than a year before he gets booted out the door.
He’s a pretty bad teammate.

Yep, I remember when he exited New Orleans the first time. He had moments of brilliance such as this one touchdown where he was clocked at something like 22mph down sideline. However, he thinks he should be the cornerstone of the franchise as a 5ft10 Wide receiver. He was pissed because he wasn't getting more passes thrown his way and wanted out. Really don't need this guy back on the team, but I guess depth is a big issue for the saints right now with the cap hanging over the franchise.

Selfish. Bitched about not getting his touches, after the Saints put up 48 points.
That showed his priorities.

MT really showed Brandin's flaws. MT was just constantly open, even when he was covered with a blanket. If BC wasn't open because he ran past someone, he wasn't making many contested catches. Thus Drew fed Mike

Not very well liked.

We'll always have that 98 yd TD catch against the Raiders

This is a dumb and obscure stat. He is one of many to have (3) 1000 yard seasons in a row.

tbf, you have to be doing something wrong to have 1000 yards in 3 straight years with 3 different teams and then play for 3 more teams after that.
Brandin Cooks rankings by year:
2015: 17th in catches, 14th in yards, t14th in TDs
2016: 24th in catches, 7th in yards, t9th in TDs
2017: 29th in catches, 11th in yards, t19th in TDs
2018: 21st in catches, 14th in yards, t40th in TDs
2019: injured
2020: 22nd in catches, 12th in yards, t30th in TDs
2021: 15th in catches, 22nd in yards, t25th in TDs
Not really pro bowl numbers in any of those seasons...Maybe 2016.
The Pro Bowl WRs in 2016 were Julio, Brown, Evans, Beckham, Hilton, Green, Fitzgerald, Bryant, E Sanders, D Thomas, Landry, Cooper, and Baldwin. Some big names there so he was really competing with Sanders, Cooper, and Baldwin for that spot.
Sanders: 79, 1032, 5
Cooper: 83, 1153, 5 (on a 12 win Raiders team)
Baldwin: 94, 1128, 7
Cooks had 78, 1173, and 8 so you can make an argument. But small market, 7 win team, etc.

2006: 19th in catches, 19th in yards, t10th in TDs
2007: 8th, 8th, 7th
2008: injured - 72nd, 45th, 29th
2009: 27th, 18th, t10th
2010: 10th, 15th, t21st
2011: 12th, 14th, t11th
2012: 16th, 13th, t7th
2013: 28th, 27th, t38th
2014: 58th, 33rd, t46th
2015: 87th, 82nd, t58th
Colston absolutely should've been a pro bowler in 2007.

I have no idea if that is true.

Because he’s not that good. Oh and he’s a little bitch of a person. Why we overpaid to bring a guy back that hated being here the first time blows my mind. I honestly think Loomis is just a screwing with everyone now doing crazy stupid shite because he knows his job is always safe.
Posted on 3/22/25 at 1:14 pm to LSUPilot07
eh, we needed another receiver.
Was hoping to keep MVS on a small deal. He got 1 yr, 4 mil from seattle
we got Cooks for 2 yrs, 13 mil

Wow. Great post man.
What a recv group you could make out of those. And even Prohl didn't make it.

100%
16 games
98 receptions,1202 yards, 11 TDs
Deserved it - starters
Larry Fitzgerald - 100 receptions, 1409 yards, 10 TDs
Terrell Owens - 81 receptions, 1355 yards, 15 TDs
He was better - backups
Donald Driver - 82 receptions, 1048 yards, 2 TDs (laughable)
Torry Holt - 93 receptions, 1189 yards, 7 TDs (similar, but still better)
