Yes I was fine for allowing this group to get better each week and maybe grabbing another younger wr off a team with multiple years left on his deal.  

 

I hate everything about this trade.  That third round pick missing is going to sting big time in april.

No it’s not. You don’t even know if the 3rd round pick was going to be any good. 
 

Allen is in his prime. We already have a rookie WR getting up to speed.

this will benefit coleman is cooper is willing to be a team guy

 

theres currently nobody on roster who he can learn from

And you know who didn’t get him - Chiefs!!!!   (Might be why we shipped a 3rd). 

this would be the only reason to over pay in my opinion, if they got word KC was willing to give up a 3 then I can almost understand.

smdh i was clearly talking about that mack hollins route last night

My mistake, sorry. Go Bills.

Cooper wears number 2. 
 

So our current #2 needs to get cut. It’s the only reasonable option.

Heck ya! Perfect get at a good price! Good job Beane! Now let’s not screw this up McD time to win it all 🥳

Solid pick up.  Had multiple big plays called back and missed with Watson.  I dont think Buffalo needs to change philosophy on offense but allows the wr room to settle into better roles.  Great trade.  Cooper can ball. Has everywhere his entire career.  Look what he did with Flacco last season. Love the move.

Ok - we're all different - I'll find the silver lining that we didn't just stay the course with what we watched last night

Could Cooper have been their target the entire time? 

[dave mcbride]

In just 15 games last year, he had 1,250 yards for 17.4 ypr. The drops issue might be a product of outliers; he was not much of a pass dropper until he got to Cleveland. In Dallas in 2020, he had 92 catches and only 3 drops.

You can still call him an impotent bast*rd.

[TheBrownBear]

I love this trade.  We should again be a potent offense once he gets acclimated.

[Back2Buff]

Nothing like a WR that can't catch.

[aristocrat]

Cooper put up 265 yards against the Texans last year. Let’s go

[RyanC883]

Awesome!!  now, lets use the 6th to get Hopkins !

Surely you can't be serious

It’s because he has a cheap contract. 

Yea I get it. Guess I was hoping we could still get him for a 5th being a one year rental. 

 

Not upset. Still pumped.

Not so long ago…
