NFL Mock Draft Analyst Suggests Blockbuster Amari Cooper Trade Proposal Between Cowboys & Dolphins

[cnuball21]

I’d offer the dolphins the following trade

Cooper for pick #6

no negotiations, take it or leave it. That’s the beauty of shopping players you really don’t want to move. If someone gives you exactly what you want then great. And if they don’t that’s also great.

If Pitts / Chase are on the board and the Dolphins would do pick 6 for Cooper I'd do this.

I'm not interested in the OP's post but this, this idea would be tempting. With both picks 6 and 10 we could grab 2 of these guys Sewell, Pitts, Chase, Waddle or Smith. I think Lamb, Gallup and one of those 4 skill guys would be very good going forward. You can than afford to re-up Gallup now to save some $. Plus Lamb and new guy are on 5 year deals which helps a lot.

Or we could pick whomever at 6 and then trade back from 10 and get our defensive picks rolling.

This is a shockingly stupid trade proposal for us. Hell, why don’t we just throw Zack Martin and Dak in for ***** and giggles!

Cooper for the 6th pick?

We would need to make that deal.

Doubt they would.

Miami can stay at 6 and probably take any WR they want or maybe even Pitts. And that will be at a rookie contract not what Amari is making.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

So they are going to send Cooper off occur a cap penalty charge then use big money next year to sign Gallup. Yup that sounds like a great plan.

Exactly. It's like they right this stuff on the crapper and actually expect the fan base to just be idiots and eat it all up.

Whatever. I'm not trading Cooper and a 1st round pick for the 6th. Hell, Cooper costed a 1st round pick to get him here.

 

[RamziD]

Who are we trading up for? Pitts? MIA would just take him if he were available.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Wait....so I'm trading Cooper AND MY pick? Hell no.

I would do it in a heartbeat.

We are now less than a week away from the 2021 NFL Draft and just like every other year, it is shaping up to have a ton of unexpected trades.

According to ESPN analytics expert Bill Barnwell, it would make sense for the Dallas Cowboys to be part in ne of those trades.

The Miami Dolphins own the No. 6 overall pick and would surely like to add a wide receiver to help second-year quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. That high pick could be used to bring in an established WR to solve the issue.

In his all-trade NFL mock draft, Barnwell suggests that it could make sense for Dallas to send receiver Amari Cooper, the No. 10 overall pick, and a fourth-round pick to Miami in exchange for The No. 6 and No. 81 overall picks.

Both teams would benefit as the Cowboys would get some much needed cap relief and the Dolphins would have a No. 1 WR.

“The Cowboys have a quarterback starting a contract worth $40 million per season, and given how much they’re spending elsewhere on their core, something has got to give,” Barnwell writes. “Cooper has a cap hit of $22 million in each of the final four years on his deal, and they notably didn’t restructure his deal when they created cap space this offseason. They would be on the hook for only $8 million in dead money as part of a Cooper trade. Michael Gallup is a pending free agent after this season, and the Cowboys could very well see themselves using Cooper’s money on two players.”

You'd do it in a heartbeat? Did you see where it says we'd trade our #10 overall pick?

I mean I can see them doing it. I think its a stupid deal for the Cowboys....you get Amari Cooper and the 10th overall pick?

 

[jterrell]

Neither team would do this.

DAL doesn't want to eat an 8 mil dead cap hit. They can sit where they are and see how Amari's health does. They can lower his cap hits with a restructure/extension if desired or release him for a far lower cap hit later on.
But Amari fits the DAL timeline. This team is trying to win BIG the next 2-3 years. Move up 4 spots at the cost of Cooper? LOL no.

MIA is trying to build up from the bottom and want a WR who can grow with Tua. Why would they want to ignore the top weapons in the draft to go get a 26 year old who's had plantar fasciitis, has a lot of NFL mile son him yet is signed at very high rates?
Coop is not on the MIA timeline of 2-4 years away.

it makes no sense for us to trade our only elite receiver.

Barnwell's a hack and big-time Cowboy hater

 

[ultron]

I can get a rookie WR with a massive ceiling (Chase, Smith, Waddle) on a rookie deal, or a $100m WR that has never really put up “godly” numbers.

If the deal is Copper for pick 6....sign me up. But we’re also giving up 10 so it’s basically Cooper plus Surtain for pick 6 with some steak knives thrown in. And the guy I want to take at 6 is probably the same guy I’m hoping to take at 10.

 

[AKATheRake]

This draft is loaded at WR.

Cooper himself was a top 5 pick and a multiple pro bowler who is just entering his prime age of years. He is actually worth more than the 6th pick knowing his age and accomplishments already within the league.

I know come draft day picks are worth more than players but in this case a Jamar Chase may not give you more than Amari Cooper down the road and most likely wouldn’t immediately.
