Back to the Cleveland Browns Newsfeed

Dear Mr. Jones, Thank you for sending us Amari Cooper. Sincerely, all Browns fans

When news came in March that Cleveland had traded with the Dallas Cowboys for perennial Pro Bowl receiver Amari Cooper, the first reaction was that the Browns are a running team. Why would we need such a multi-talented player like that?

How on earth will he pay his way with the salary that he is going to consume? And if the pass-happy Cowboys don’t want him anymore, is there something wrong with him?

Cleveland GM Andrew Berry traded a 2022 fifth-round pick plus a swap of their sixth-round draft slots for Cooper.
