Why would Cooley make this up? And why would they want Cooley when they already had Witten?

The fact that they had and have Witten makes me sway towards your arguement. Just heard that and I think some teams do draft for best available even if they have a starter at that position. Cooley could have played fullback / hback for "tuna" like so many of his old teams had. Kind of like Richie Anderson or Byers on the Jets.
