People scoffed at Jerry Jones for giving up a first-round pick to win a declining Cooper in 2018, but Cooper was worth it and more. In his first full season as a cowboy, he succeeded with 15.1 YPC (8th) and 10.0 YPT (3rd). He had six catches of 40 yards or more (T-6) and scored eight touchdowns (T-12) despite seeing only 119 targets (18th) and nine views in the red zone. At 6-1, 210 and at 4.42 speed, Cooper has the size to overcome a smaller defensive back and speed down the field. Moreover, since Cooper’s arrival, Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has gone from being a competent game manager to one of the league’s leading adders. Cooper, who signed a five-year, $ 100 million contract with the Cowboys in March, is just 26 years old and is still at the peak of his career. Third year Michael Gallup (113 goals in 14 games) actually saw more goals per game than Cooper, and the team with the 17th overall pick made the super-looking CeeDee Lamb, so Cooper isn’t the only show in town. Luckily, Randall Cobb (83 targets) went to Houston, and Prescott was sixth in the attempt last year, so there’s enough for all three players. Both Gallup and Cooper should see an increase in goals in the red zone under new coach Mike McCarthy.
The first-round pick seemed like a big price to pay for Cooper’s mid-season services, but the Cowboys have more than got their money in the last nine games. Cooper posted a 76-53-725-6 line after trading in Dallas, numbers rising to 135-94-1,289-11 throughout the season. His arrival also seemed to trigger an entire attack in Dallas, as fullback Dak Prescott looked like a different player with Cooper on the field. With 6-1, 210, Cooper has a decent size and good speed (4.42 40) and was the Raiders ’main weapon for the big games for the first two years in the league. Cooper’s average target depth (9.4 in total) fell with the Cowboys, but he caught 70 percent of the pass at 9.5 ypta, a number that would put him in seventh place among 100 targets. Cooper hasn’t seen much of the red zone’s work in Dallas in general (just nine goals within 20), but his five looks within-10 (for one TD) in nine games were good for 2019 when he will return as the team’s undisputed main target. Second-year Michael Gallup showed flashes as a beginner, but he lacks Cooper’s explosiveness on the field and profiles more as a complement than as a threat to Cooper’s role.
2017 was a lost season for Cooper, who dropped passes, missed two games with an ankle injury and generally looked lost in a subordinate attack by the Raiders throughout the year. With the exception of Week 17, which does not count in most fantasy leagues, Cooper had only one game in which he exceeded 70 yards and five in which he failed to score 10. His overall season results were strengthened by that game in Week 17 ( 115 yards and TD), and his second good game was a monstrous 11-210-2 outing against the Chiefs, but his keeping in the lineup from week to week was expensive, even a year less for receivers in general. With 6-0, 211 and 4.42 40, Cooper has good size and speed, although he is hardly a freak in the mold of Julio Jones or Josh Gordon. Cooper was never a big target in the red zone, and most of that work went into the hands of colleague Michael Crabtree. This year, Crabtree will be trading in Baltimore, so Cooper could see more prospects in the area, although the Raiders have gained confident Jordy Nelson (6-3, 217) big targets that might suit him better. But Nelson is 33, and new coach Jon Gruden has indicated that Cooper will be the “focal point” of the team’s attack. Accordingly, expect at least a target jump, and keep in mind that Cooper is only 24 years old.
What is Derek Carr’s obsession with Michael Crabtree? For the second year in a row, ineffective Crabtree (6.9 YPT, 33rd) saw more views (145) than Cooper (8.7 YPT, 13th) (132), especially in the red zone where Crabtree got 21 targets to Cooper – this 13. While Cooper got 150 yards despite a smaller amount, Crabtree outscored him eight to five. With 6-1, 211 and 4.43 speeds, Cooper is a nice blend of size and speed that breaks the game. He is fast and athletically oriented and runs sharp routes. While Cooper had only two catches of 40 plus, he brought 21 of 20 plus (4th) despite being 15th on target. The issue for Cooper is once again volume – his skills and role make him safe for a bet to reach 1,000-and-a-half-dozen TDs, but his ceiling is limited by a heavier Crabtree load, especially up close. Adding insult to injury, slot player Seth Roberts also saw an incredible 21 of his 77 targets in the red zone, effectively freezing Cooper, although we would expect a significant regression on that field. The Raiders didn’t make significant additions in a passing foul – Jared Cook thinks it’s a weak ending, and Cordarrelle Patterson is more of a returner than a source of targets, so it’s still possible that Cooper claims he owns the team’s air exit. Even if he doesn’t, the floor is still high for a 23-year-old.
Cooper’s beginner’s year was more or less what could be expected. Although he eclipsed 1,000 yards, making him only the 15th rookie to do so since the merger, he scored just six goals, and his 8.2 YPT put him in 16th place out of 32 wide-league receivers with 100 goals. But perhaps a bigger surprise was that Cooper was not the main target on his team. Despite playing all 16 games, he finished with 16 goals less than Michael Crabtree, a 49ers striker whose career looked on his hind legs. With 6-1, 211, Cooper has a decent size, and his 4.42 40 is above average. He is a strong runner, fast in breaks and out of breaks and ready to cross the middle of the field. He also plays big games — his six catches for 40 and more yards tied him in sixth place in the league, even though he was only 16th in the target. On his way to 2016, Cooper should replace Crabtree as the target team leader. Recipients usually improve their second seasons dramatically, and although David Carr is not Drew Brees, he is a competent quarterback who should also get better in Year 3 as his relationship with Cooper grows.
The fourth overall pick in this year’s draft, Cooper won’t hurt opportunities in Oakland. The question is what quality it is. While some are excited about rookie Derek Carr’s 21-TD, 12-INT rookie season, she came in with 5.5 YPA, the last with a big difference among 36 defenders with 200 or more attempts to pass. Sure, Cooper should be the current upgrade to Carr’s goals from last season, and he’s likely to be a clean No. 1 team out of the cap even with recently signed Michael Crabtree. But this is the last organization trying to improve the passing game, which is ranked 26th in the yard and last in efficiency. Cooper is an interesting perspective in itself because he lacks an elite size / speed profile like AJ Green or Julio Jones for such an early selection. But with 6-1, 211, he is above average in height and weight, and his 4.42 40 is fast, just not like that. Cooper is particularly sleek as a runner on the route, fast and fluid in breaks and off and ready to take punches and catch balls in traffic. He was extremely productive in college. But while some have compared him to Marvin Harrison, no one compares his quarterback to Peyton Manning.
