Makes me sad

Depends who he has throwing to him. I've always believed that a quarterback makes the receiver as much as the receiver makes the qb. It's still a team game. If the Raiders don't improve that roster Cooper might be one of many we say "remember when we thought he'd be one of the all time greats".
And take care of those hamstrings.
Yep, should have drafted him, and DE Mario Edwards Jr or Frank Clark in the 2nd.
RB Zack Zenner in the 3rd! LOL
Seriously though, I did want Cooper in the 1st, but when we didn't take him, I screamed for Tyler Lockett in the 3rd. He has already returned two kicks for TD's and looks better than almost any WR we have.
Really wish we would have grabbed him. I understood though why we didn't. Having Hurns, Lee, and Robinson might have swayed the decisions.
Or Dave may have liked Fowler that much
Too bad Carr isn't an elite QB
You look at the pass rush and you shouldn't have to ask why they took a pass-rusher.

I did not want Cooper at first because we had Lee. That is working real well for me. :no: Lockett was a pick I just had to have. My college team played him early last year and he was outstanding. Seattle picked him very close to the Jags pick. We would not have got Green though who I think will be outstanding also.
Every rookie has a chance to be an all time great, lol.
i really wanted him but if Fowler turns out to be a great pass rusher I'll be fine with it
He will be hof same as Mack but I still like fowler just as much and would have still drafted him at 3 if he already had the acl injury same with gurley
Cooper was the guy I was hoping for, but I think it is extremely foolish to make claims of who got what pick right after 3 preseason games.
I wanted Cooper but I understand that our receiving corps has infinitely more depth than our nonexistant passrush. I hope Fowler returns stronger next season and becomes the gamewrecker we need on defense
I don't think Fowler will be as good at his position as Cooper, but as a Jaguars fan you should be wishing just to have a first rounder finally contribute.
I don't even care about Fowler being some god of a pass rusher, I just want him to freaking contribute. This team has completely drained me of patience with the first round busts.
I hope cooper does have a solid career, its crazy yearly to say if he will or not with how young a team oakland is(Let alone how young he is) but again wish them the best of luck.
I just hope Fowler is able to come back and contribute to this team.
Lockett was my favorite player in the draft this year. I even convinced my friend to stash him on his fantasy football roster. Convinced him to give up Gates (serving that 4 game suspension and he has Whitten and Bennett on his roster too)
Didnt Amari have a bad route against the Cardinals, then followed it up by beating Patrick Peterson for a 35 yard gain?
Hopefully fowler can be as good as they sat he is

Ran a bad route? Bust.
