Final Thoughts

I don’t have a problem with teams doing their due diligence on players because there are millions of dollars on the line when it comes to first round draft picks.

However, I do have a problem with Matt Miller not providing context to Cook. If he’s going to question his character, maybe he should also mention the countless hours Cook has spent doing things like visiting Children’s Hospitals:

Some folk may say that’s just Cook trying to get positive publicity prior to the upcoming draft. However, he was doing these type things all the way back in 2015.

What about speaking to these group of kids?

Not to mention Cook has not had any off the field issues the last couple of years. So, if someone is going to tell a story, makes sure they’re telling the entire story.
