The Cowboys would not deal Cooper based on a reworked deal, meaning the Jets would have had to take on his massive contract as is and try to restructure after the trade. The Browns acquired the Pro Bowler and a sixth-round pick from the Cowboys for fifth- and sixth-rounders on Saturday. Hughes said the Jets did their due diligence on Cooper, as teams typically do, but the receiver’s contract was viewed as an insurmountable obstacle. The Jets never considered a trade for WR Amari Cooper to be a realistic option, according to The Athletic’s Connor Hughes.
The Jacksonville Jaguars will enter the free agency period with several needs, but one that fans would say is among the top of their list is the receiver ...
They have three sixth round picks thanks to the Gardner Minshew and Sidney Jones trades and have a fifth from Minnesota for Yannick Ngakoue. In 2021 it was clear that the team didn’t have a No. 1 at the position and rookie quarterback Trevor Lawrence struggled as a result and for many other reasons. That veteran player was former Dallas Cowboys receiver Amari Cooper, who is now headed to the Cleveland Browns for fifth and sixth round picks in April’s draft.
The Cleveland Browns have agreed to acquire Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper for a 2022 fifth-round draft pick and a swap of sixth-rounders, NFL Network ...
Dallas, however, had no shortage of teams inquiring about Cooper. Rapoport reported Saturday the Cowboys spent the week fielding trade calls, but he noted that Cooper's 2022 salary (which becomes fully guaranteed later this month) was a sticking point in negotiations. Owner Jerry Jones expressed frustration in Cooper's 2021 season during a January radio appearance, and he declined to discuss the receiver's contract, which carried a $20 million base salary into the 2022 campaign. The Browns might not be done in the receiver market.
CLEVELAND (AP) — The Browns weren't willing to wait for free agency or the NFL draft to get their No. 1 wide receiver. Cleveland general manager Andrew ...
Cooper spent the past four seasons with Dallas. He had 68 catches for 865 yards and eight touchdowns in 2021. The Cowboys were intent on dealing Cooper, who signed a five-year, $100 million contract extension in 2019 and hasn’t produced the way Dallas had hoped. He’d be a prime target for quarterback Baker Mayfield, assuming he returns as Cleveland’s starter following an injury-altered season.
Cooper had 865 receiving yards and eight touchdowns on 68 catches last season. Drafted fourth overall by the Raiders in the 2015 NFL Draft, Cooper had 1,000- ...
The team's leading receiver was Donovan Peoples-Jones, who had 597 yards. Cooper gives the Browns a much-needed downfield target. Multiple teams reportedly had shown interest in the 27-year-old wideout.
Now that the Browns have a No. 1 WR in Amari Cooper, will their 2022 NFL draft plans change at No. 13 overall?
Doing so would allow the Browns to address the holes at EDGE, defensive line or even offensive tackle with a more premium pick. It’s more likely the Browns wait until later in the draft to tap into a deep WR class. But now the Browns have agreed to trade for Amari Cooper, a viable No. 1 target from the Dallas Cowboys. The draft cost to acquire Cooper is just a fifth-round pick and a swap of sixth-rounders this year, but Cooper’s $20 million-per-year salary represents a major investment.
The Cowboys should get some credit for receiving two draft picks for Cooper, a player they were going to release to save $20 million in salary cap space next ...
Cooper is coming off of back-to-back 1000-yard seasons, but Dallas didn't want to carry his $20 million salary for the coming year.
… There are some moving parts to that that we’ll have to continue to massage as we move forward." He’s set to count $16.3 million against the cap, and the Browns would like to retain his services. However, there’s a degree of uncertainty regarding Landry’s status.
Fantasy Football players should lower their expectations for Amari Cooper now that he's been traded to the Browns.
In 44 regular-season games with Cooper, he averaged 297.4 passing yards, had a 2-to-0.6 touchdown to interception ratio and a passer rating of 103. I now see the third-year wideout as a player who could truly bust out in the stat sheets for fantasy fans. The move also hurts Jarvis Landry, who has more competition in the passing game, as well as Donovan People-Jones as a late flier. He’ll be in a run-based offense that statistically neutered former star Odell Beckham Jr. and is not at all wideout friendly. This deal has to sting for Cowboys fans, as the team traded a first-round pick to the Raiders for Cooper in 2018. In fact, the most fantasy points a receiver has averaged in Kevin Stefanski’s offense is Stefon Diggs. The current Bills playmaker averaged 14.2 points from 2018-2019 while he and Stefanski were with the Vikings.
The Browns are believed to be giving up a fifth-round pick, along with a swap of sixth-round picks, in exchange for the four-time Pro Bowl wide receiver. The ...
Amari Cooper may not hit free agency after all. Clarence Hill Jr. of the Dallas Star-Telegram reports (via Twitter) that there is a “real trade market” for ...
While the Cowboys were “likely” to release the receiver, they were still hoping to trade him…but there were reports indicating that the Cowboys weren’t receiving a whole lot of interest. Cooper’s contract does provide some year-to-year flexibility; if an organization is wiling to tolerate his $20MM salary in 2022, they could move on from him in 2023 with just a $4MM cap hit to show for it. Clarence Hill Jr. of the Dallas Star-Telegram reports (via Twitter) that there is a “real trade market” for the wide receiver.
The Cowboys on Saturday reportedly agreed to a trade with the Browns that will send four-time Pro Bowl receiver Amari Cooper to Cleveland for a fifth-round ...
Cooper finished third on the team in receptions, second in yards and tied for first in touchdown receptions in 2021. But a part of the reason the Cowboys brought him on was to help them reach their first Super Bowl since the 1995 season. In moving Cooper to the Browns, the team saves $16 million in cap space. Still, Dallas fans and objective observers alike may want an answer as to why Cooper commanded such a low price — and why the Cowboys chose to move on from him in the first place. They may point to the fact this move frees up space to re-sign other, cheaper receiver options. The return Dallas received for Cooper isn't nearly indicative of how much he is worth — rather, it was a move necessitated by poor cap space management.
A week full of NFL blockbuster trades continued Saturday with Amari Cooper reportedly being dealt to Cleveland. The Dallas Cowboys traded the veteran wide ...
The team's leading receiver was Donovan Peoples-Jones, who had 597 yards. Cooper gives the Browns a much-needed downfield target. Multiple teams reportedly had shown interest in the 27-year-old wideout.
Aunque no se ha finalizado, los Cowboys están en conversaciones con los Browns sobre un canje que enviaría a Amari Cooper a Cleveland.

Antes de que los Browns consiguieran a Cooper, Landry ya estaba en duda para regresar. De hecho, los Browns no tuvieron ni un receptor abierto con más de 600 yardas recibidas, y solamente Jarvis Landry logró más de 35 recepciones. OBJ ganaría un Super Bowl con Los Angeles Rams, mientras que el juego aéreo de Cleveland se desmoronó rumbo a una temporada decepcionante de 8-9.
With the news that the Cowboys and Browns have agreed on a trade for Amari Cooper, what is Cleveland getting in the wide receiver?
On this next play, a completion with Cooper working out of the left slot, the receiver pushes vertically on a seam route. The Cowboys also used his threat as a vertical receiver to sell cornerbacks on deep routes, before breaking Cooper off and giving Dak Prescott an easy read and throw. On this play against the Carolina Panthers, Cooper manages to separate downfield on an out-and-up route.
La balanza probablemente se inclinó en la dirección de Gallup en el momento en que CeeDee Lamb comenzó a brillar para los cowboys como un receptor confiable.
El mariscal Dak Prescott y Cooper disfrutaron de una buena relación de trabajo después de que los Cowboys lo trajeron en octubre de la temporada 2018 procedente de los Raiders. Cooper pasó los últimos ocho juegos de la temporada regular sin un juego de 100 yardas, su tramo más largo desde que se unió a los Cowboys a mediados de la temporada 2018. La balanza probablemente se inclinó en la dirección de Gallup en el momento en que CeeDee Lamb comenzó a brillar para los Cowboys como un receptor confiable. Al comenzar la temporada pasada, Cooper dijo a los periodistas que se consideraba el mejor receptor de la NFL. El veredicto: Gallup, a pesar de su desgarre de un ligamento cruzado en su rodilla, que se espera que retrase el inicio de su temporada, es la opción más joven y económica en el futuro. En lugar de pagar su salario de $20 millones esta temporada, una fuente confirmó a The Dallas Morning News el sábado que los Cowboys cambiaron a Cooper a los Cleveland Browns.

Though not finalized, the Cowboys are in discussions with the Browns on a trade that would send Amari Cooper to Cleveland.
The Cowboys reportedly have had discussions with Gallup about an extension and would like to re-sign Wilson as well. Nothing has been finalized yet, however, and a trade might not be completed until the start of the new league year Wednesday. Gallup and Cedrick Wilson, a standout No. 4 receiver the past two years, have expiring rookie deals.

But the demand will be for one guy to stand above the rest. But along with the spectacular catches has come some inconsistency. And while there are plans to reload with the re-signing of injury-rehabbing Michael Gallup, Dallas may be priced out of also retaining two other free-agent wideouts, Cedrick Wilson and Malik Turner. In his first two NFL seasons, Lamb has 153 catches for 2,037 yards and 11 touchdowns. He's been anointed into "The 88 Club'' by predecessors Drew Pearson and Michael Irvin and Dez Bryant ... He's struggled mostly with some drops.
Cleveland is banking that Cooper will be able to give its offense what OBJ never was able to -- a legitimate go-to wide receiver.
And the Browns missed the playoffs on the way to a disappointing 8-9 finish. The Browns might not be done upgrading the receiving corps, either. The Browns summarily released OBJ, who then went on to star again with the Los Angeles Rams on the way to winning a Super Bowl. Meanwhile, Mayfield -- playing with a torn labrum in his non-throwing, left shoulder since Week 2 -- continued to struggle. But Cleveland’s receiving corps -- consisting of Beckham for less than half the season, Jarvis Landry, Donovan Peoples-Jones, Ja'Marcus Bradley and rookie Anthony Schwartz -- was underwhelming, as well. Then, he essentially forced his way out in the middle of the 2021 season via his father, who posted a video on social media highlighting times when Mayfield either didn't throw the ball to Beckham or missed him when he was open. He also had the third-worst QBR (54.0) targeting wide receivers.
Amari Cooper is going to the Cleveland Browns for what CowboysSI.com is told is package featuring two late-round picks.
In the meantime, Dallas must also be cap-compliant by March 16. That was a subpar year for him in the explosive Dallas offense. But a bigger concern than that for the Cowboys: Before the trade, Cooper was due his entire $20 million salary for 2022 guaranteed if he was on the roster on March 21.
Cooper, the former No. 4 overall selection in the 2015 NFL Draft, had been traded in 2018 by the Oakland Raiders in exchange for a first-round draft pick.
