When rumors started to leak out that the Oakland Raiders were possibly in the market to trade away two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Amari Cooper, the Dallas Cowboys made the ideal landing spot.
In the offseason, the Cowboys opted to part ways with longtime number one wideout Dez Bryant. Without Bryant, Dallas’ passing offense has struggled. Young quarterback Dak Prescott has posted career-lows in passing yardage (190.6 per game), completion percentage (62.0), and QB rating (85.5) through the team’s first six games.
The Cowboys receiver corps is considered one of the worst in the NFL.
