There are a few WR types out there.
You got the burners, who can stretch the field, but most of those aren't great in the short game. Some are like Ty Hill.
You got the athletic/physical freaks, who can outjump anyone, be hard to tackle, and can run a few routes but still be unstoppable at times.
You got the route runners, like Cooper, who also has very good acceleration/speed, to gain even more separation.
Then you have those rare generational players like Megatron who could do all of the above.
Dez was a great physical freak WR and Cooper is a great router runner styled receiver.
It's silly to say one is better than the other, as a general comment, as both had different strengths.
Just be glad we've been blessed with great receivers to make our QB's lives easier.
