So why was Amari Cooper traded twice in his prime?
NewEra replied to PoundingDog's topic in The Stadium Wall
You’re exact question- “What's Cooper's excuse, this being his 4th team?” (Side note: 4 teams didn’t trade him- 3 did). My point was- why would Cooper have an excuse? The teams have reasons/excuses and I stated them for you. Yes- there other reasons and I failed to cover my bases by using the word usually. What I did do, was state why cooper was traded, ie, his excuses. No, that’s not all you said- “His catch percent is in the Gabe Davis range---and Buffalo fans "ran him out of town" for that performance.” You did as you always do, you took a shot at Bills fans, more specifically, Bills fans that opposed your view of Gabe Davis. Fans that knew Gabe was a JAG, before he was a jag. While you previously mentioned drops, you weren’t talking about drops in this instance, you were talking about CATCH PERCENTAGE. My point stands- even if you are oblivious to it. -

Correct- drops are drops. You also talked about catch percentage and their catch percentages are much different. MUCH different when receiving passes from good QBs. Regarding the last sentence- you asked what Amari’s “excuse”, this being his 4th team. Why would amari have an excuse for being traded? Do you know why players are traded? USUALLY 2 reasons: their team is trash and they’d prefer to get draft picks in the upcoming draft for them to help with the rebuild (ie raiders and browns). The other being salary cap (cowboys). While I’m sure Amari doesn’t have an excuse, I’m quite sure those are the answers yours looking for. yw and Gabe still sucks From my recollection, his post history is likely 85% dispute, 10% one liners, 5% good content. He was a Gabe Davis apologist and he apparently can’t let go. Comparing Amari Cooper to Gabe Davis as a way to put a spin of how bad we are as fans. More good content -

And he’s been an nfl player for 10 years- again- we have eyes- we can see that he’s a good player. You can go search for one stat that says he’s not. While we’ll listen to the world talk about how great cooper is. He has had issues with drops. It’s one of the reasons he’s not considered elite by many standards. Had he not had the drops, there wouldn’t really be any blemishes in his game. Other than that- he’s great at high pointing the ball and contested catches, one of the best route runners in the league and shows up to play without crying about targets every season. what does Gabe do great other than run block? it’s hilarious that you’re still going to bat for this guy. Even funnier that your using Gabe and coop in the same conversation, thanks to one stat. He woke up on the same side of the bed this morning. Looking to piss in cereals, per usual -

No- we ran him out of town because of that catch percentage, his limited route tree, he wasn’t a very good route runner, he had little speed, limited yac ability and his inability to separate. Leaving out significant information doesn’t make your post correct. And then there’s context- Prior to joining the Browns in 22- cooper had 2 seasons of sub 62 catch%. His rookie and 3rd seasons with Derek Carr (a below average poor QB) throwing him passes. 57.8 His catch % with a Dak, a good QB, but not great, was 68%- very good. his catch % with Watson, the worst QB in the league, and the Browns was 55.6- poor, like the QB, team and surrounding weapons. Gabe- playing with a top 2 QB and opposite an all pro x, Davis never reached above 56.5%, his rookie season, and only got worse. for their careers: cooper 61.2%- playing with zero elite QBs his entire careers. A handful of seasons playing with one good QB, his caught 68% davis 54.5% playing with an elite QB his entire career (51.4 with Lawrence) It was everything- we had eyes and could see that he wasn’t very good- that’s why he was run out Are you saying cooper isn’t good? -
The Ambiance or the Decor -- Keon's Commercial
NewEra replied to wettlaufer's topic in The Stadium Wall
Just a ridiculous statement. -
Both are great trades. cooper is the better player atm and didn’t require us to move any cap room down the road. Hopkins gave up a lesser pick and got a player at a position of need. He’s not the guy he was, but he’s a huge upgrade over Watson

Week 8 - Bills at Seahawks Game Week Thread
NewEra replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
And he popped off to Josh on Josh’s attempted QB sneak, something to the effect of Josh can’t score on jinx. Was on the micd up -
i wanted Henry in a bad way only because that would’ve given us the two most unstoppable ball carriers in the league. I also didn’t think there was any chance that we would sign him. In hindsight, the Samuel deal is an abomination, but at the time, I loved it. Would I trade Samuel for Henry? Absolutely.

NewEra replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
I will for sure- would love to catch a game with you! -
Yeah….because von was injured in the playoffs….
-
Fixed. its a good move for them 💯 We covered him easily vs Rudolph and the titans OL. I think it’ll be much different in KC
-
We did it in 22 before Von got hurt.

Oh dam, right in Portland. My wife is from Tigard. We go up there a couple times a year. I hear there’s a Bills bar there, haven’t been yet though. Ever go or watch at home? -

Xavier Worthy: So far, not much more than a gadget guy
NewEra replied to Logic's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is the reason I didn’t think he was a fit in buffalo. Imagine when it gets cold out too…..he’s going to shatter when hit -
Same- all things considered, I don’t think we could’ve come away much better than we did for 2024. Replacing cooper next season may not be so easy, but I’m holding out some hope that he’s here for another season 🙏🏻
-
Same. I feel they’re definitely going to land a WR before the deadline, most likely Hopkins. Not sure if I’d really mind that too much atm. He doesn’t look like the same guy running routes, but I’m sure that would change if he joins KC

Haven’t seen a video- was watching it live and rewound it a few times -
The terrible starts are the biggest storyline of our season

NewEra replied to iwishitwerecolder's topic in The Stadium Wall
Our boy likes his madden stuff- He’s right thought. We could have traded lots of assets to make that happen. doesn’t mean it would’ve been worth it. I’m happy with the way it worked out now that we got Cooper. I hope I don’t jinx this, but I really hope we can make Coopers stay in Buffalo longer than this season. He’s a special player that was never in the right place with the right QB. It took Joe Flacco got the best out of him. He might be a little past his prime, but I still think he’s a star, who’s light is about to get brighter playing with 17 -
the Daboll/Schoen regime - on the brink, it seems
NewEra replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
A HC and GM combination is only as good as their QB. They failed to get the giants a good one and now they’ll be looking for a job. -
Mmhmmmm

🤷🏻♂️ they waste our time and they also correct lots of bad calls.
