BurnleyJet Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 He’d be number one on my list, along with one of the large number of Edge rushers available this year in F.A. Then I’d pick Oline and Corner in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could sign both Joe Thuney and someone like Graham Glasgow or Andrus Peat with the money it would take to land Cooper or one of the top passrushers. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Known game changers, I sooner pick a cheap young Tackle, than pay a fortune for a washed up vet. Cooper is a true #1 and is only 26. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bla bla bla Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 I really like Cooper but I find it hard to believe Gase would want someone making that kind of money when he isn't thrilled about having Bell. I would prefer to retain Robby pending the price, I could probably be talked into using the transition tag for one year on him even though it's $16m. Let him test the market and then we get the option of first refusal. It really depends if we think we'll be able to sign enough FAs to use up all our money and what we want to do with Adams. I'd then take a WR early in this draft, Lamb, Jefferson, Gandy Golden are a few I've kept my eye one but need to look into more 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post JiFields Posted January 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2020 If we signed Amari Cooper half way through the season half the board would be talking about how bad he is and how he lost a step and want to get rid of his contract ASAP because Jets fans dont like good Football players on their roster. 4 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post David Harris Posted January 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 8, 2020 I’d love to have him but imo any significant resources available should be put on the OL first and foremost.

Anderson for 10/12 a year or Cooper for 18/20 a year. Is Cooper double the value of Anderson on the field. Cooper is definitely better but is he twice as good? Obviously I’m guessing on the price. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYJ1 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 It's foolish to think adding a big name like Cooper is going to suddenly fix the offense. You can add skill positions until your blue in the face, if you don't have blocking, you're NEVER going to fix the offense. We'll overpay for someone that drops the ball way too many times as well. This team needs an OL. That's where ALL of our efforts should begin. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he was just banged up in that Eagles game but he didn't show me much in that "must win"game, 4 catches for 24 yds. on 12 targets.

HighPitch Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 We have to start drafting better. Thats our #1 problem. Been that way for a decade +. We need solid contributors on low rookie contracts cycling in and out. not against signing 1 or 2 high priced FA players. Thats why id extend adams NOW. But this teams mistake has always been draft poorly and trying to make it up in high price FAs. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd much rather draft a tall, speedy WR. He played banged up all year. One of the comments Romo made in one of the broadcasts talking about Cooper, his contract, and him playing through the foot and knee injuries all year. And watching that Eagles game is was evident, maybe because of the injuries, they were using him in a decoy roll and focusing on forcing the ball to Gallup. I think Coopers a beast but I wouldn't sign him and that's only because this years draft class is incredibly deep at WR. Any GM with half a brain, not named Idzik, can hit on some WR's in this draft 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetsfan80 Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 My guess is the Cowboys might still bring him back. If not, he deserves a seriously look. I’d much rather overpay him than Robby Anderson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems his effort is bi-polar like - some games he's electric, while others he looks like he's just going through the motions and cant wait to go home. I hate the thought of trying to protect Darnold with rookies, hasnt he been through enough already? Most of our cap space should be spent on the two best OL that Douglas can recruit. Draft a WRs in rnd 1 and rnd 5, EDGE Rnd 2, G and CB rnd 3, RB rnd 4...and yes Mr. Douglas must hit on every pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d much rather overpay him than Robby Anderson. I’d say sign both, if possible. Cooper, Anderson, Crowder, and Herndon/Griffin are a nice set of targets for Darnold. That would let us use at least two premium picks on OL. If that’s too expensive, I would agree that Cooper > Anderson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnival Barker Posted January 9, 2020 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Cooper is definitely intriguing, and hypothetically I'd much rather pay him $18-20M than Robby @ $13-15M per, but receiver is my #2 focus in both free agency and the draft behind the OL so I want to see a big push to sign Conklin and/or Thuney before anything else. If you're able to come away with those two, you then enter the draft with the ability to focus on weapons in the 1st round and with 2 of our first 4 picks.
