Brandon Marshall on Raiders rookie Amari Cooper: 'Stud muffin'

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- The New York Jets had a lot of wonderful things to say Wednesday about Oakland Raiders rookie sensation Amari Cooper, with the most colorful praise coming from fellow wide receiver Brandon Marshall.

"I've been a fan of Amari Cooper since he was in college," Marshall said. "He's a stud. He's a stud muffin."

Bet he never heard that from Nick Saban at Alabama.

Cooper, the fourth overall pick, already has three 100-yard receiving days, the first rookie to have three in his team's first six games since Hall of Famer Mike Ditka in 1961.
