buffaloboyinATL Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I would be happy with Cooper, but I would still want to see us draft a receiver or Offensive play maker in the first or second round. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
section122 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Amari Cooper will be a bust on his FA deal (hot take alert!). He's already said he isn't coming to Buffalo which is a relief to me. 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 He's a good WR and he's had some good years in this league already, but there are games where he just doesn't seem to show up. One week he gets 180-200yds and 2 scores, then the next week he has one or two catches for 30 yards. I'm not sure if it's the offense he was in, Dak, or him. I wouldn't be mad if we brought him in though. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Cooper is good. But rather draft the next Amari Cooper. This draft is too deep for me to want to pay top dollar for a WR in FA market. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffaloboyinATL Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 My favorite take away from this story, is that we are seeing more and more "analysts" list Buffalo as a suitable location for some of the top Free Agent targets out there. In the past it was very rare for us to be tied to any FA speculation, but now people are starting to see that we are moving in the right direction, and 1 or 2 key acquisitions could put us in the mix for a deep run into the play-offs. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They all say they dont want to be here. Just get paid to play ball and be on the first thing outta here. Hell if we submitted to they dont wanna be here... we probably would not have had 1 bowl appearance. With that being said..

I was bothered by his presence on the 'Boys bench for a lot of offense plays when their season was on the line......if he isn't a difference maker, we don't want him.

BuffaloMatt Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Good for Kyle. He can meet Cooper at the Marriott by the airport. As far as the Bills, Cooper has been a bust repeatedly and Beane is too smart. Not happening. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Locomark Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 First and second pick for Ruggs is $15 million less and would still yield regular 1400-1600 yard seasons..... screw the extra pick, go big or go home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wppete Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) No Thanks. Beane is not going to spend that amount of money on a FA WR when he has a lot of cheap options in the draft. 1 hour ago, njbuff said: Cooper should just sign with the Eagles and get it over with. This would be the best scenario. This could take the Eagles out of the WR market in the draft they pick one spot ahead of us at #21. Maybe Ruggs will drop to us by some miracle.

nato7412 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Get the "superstar" in the draft. Trade up for Jeudy Lamb or Ruggs and Save that 20 million. I'd sign Cooper but for no more than 16 million a year, then draft a WR in 3rd unless someone really good drops to the 2nd, and go EDGE in the first.

I second this. They are in desperate need of playmakers at WR, RB, and TE plus they could use upgrades along the OL. They simply don't have the offensive support for Allen to enable him to become a proficient NFL QB, and without improving their offense significantly, they really can't be competitive in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerJ Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 Sure, Id love to see him in a Buffalo uniform, but it's not going to happen. I don't think Beane will think that Cooper would be enough of a difference maker with Josh Allen at QB to justify the price he will command.

billsfan89 Posted March 3, 2020 Share Posted March 3, 2020 I wouldn't hate it as Cooper is a very good WR and certainly capable of filling the WR1 role for the next 3-4 years. But I don't think he is the game breaking dynamic WR that his contract would command him to be. He disappears for a lot of games and can have a case of the drops. I think he commands a 20 million aav or close contract and while I think he fills the primary need of the team I think he isn't likely to live up to that contract.

I want a Pony. And an airplane ticket to Belize. I mean, sure! I'd like Amari Cooper in B'lo, but he pretty much flat out said he's got a list of teams he'll consider and they're all in the South, and that he wouldn't go somewhere like Buffalo just for a "couple of extra million". I don't think we should be piling up extra-tall stacks of dollars for guys who don't want to be here. 45 minutes ago, Hardhatharry said: No thanks, this has been discussed and he drops too many footballs. Please stop with this. He had a drop rate of 3.9% in Dallas in 2018 and 4.2% last year. That's slightly below league average. He has a high number of drops because he has a high number of targets.
