Stephen Jones: Cowboys to Watch Amari Cooper Film While Raiders Use Draft Pick

The Dallas Cowboys may not currently be scheduled to make a selection on Day 1 of the 2019 NFL draft in Nashville in April after trading their first-round pick to the Oakland Raiders for receiver Amari Cooper in October, but they aren't losing sleep over it.

"When the Raiders pick our pick, we'll be watching Amari Cooper highlight tapes," Cowboys executive vice president Stephen Jones said on Tuesday, according to Jon Machota of the Dallas Morning News.

Obviously, the Cowboys will be preparing for the final two days of the draft as the Raiders go on the clock—but Jones' message was received loud and clear.
