After months of speculation, endless analyses and countless mock drafts, the Oakland Raiders did what most of the experts predicted they would do. The Raiders selected Alabama WR Amari Cooper with the 4th overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft.
It was widely thought that the Raiders would take one of two wide receivers at the top of the Draft – Cooper or West Virginia’s Kevin White. Cooper played in 40 career games and caught 228 passes for 3,463 yards and 31 TDs. He won the Biletnikoff Award last year as the best receiver in the country.
