What a breath of fresh air Amari Cooper has been for the Dallas Cowboys as the team has won five of their six games since acquiring him in a trade with the Oakland Raiders. There are a lot of reasons to be joyful about the team’s new star receiver https://www.dallascowboysfanshop.com/Bill-Bates-Jersey , but we’ve identified 19 of them to brighten your holiday season. Enjoy.1. The offense is now productiveThe Cowboys offense was in all sorts of disarray before Cooper showed up. Not only are the Cowboys winning games since he arrived, the offensive numbers have shown a significant rise.2. Route-running specialistMaybe you’re tired of hearing Troy Aikman salivate over how great of a route-runner Cooper is, but it cannot be overstated. The ability to win one-on-one matchups held this team back as Dez Bryant was not getting the separation needed. Last season, Bryant had 132 targets, but had a career low 12.1 yards per reception. Cooper is averaging 16.1 yards per reception since joining the Cowboys, which is higher than Dez has ever had.3. Third-down machineThe Cowboys offense can now move the chains. Really well, in fact. After ranking 30th in the league in third-down conversion (31.9%), they have ranked secund over the last six games (49.4%) since Cooper’s arrival. And because of their new star receiver, they are doing it through the air better than anyone in the league. Anyone.4. He’s got breakaway speedNot only can Amari create separation with precision route-running skills, his wheels makes him very dangerous once the ball is in his hands.5. He has good handsRemember when people were saying he didn’t have good hands and how that should be something Cowboys fans should worry about? Well, that’s a load of crock. According to Pro Football Focus, only Michael Thomas and Adam Thielen have a better catch percentage among the top wide receivers.6. He’s worth a firstIt’s okay if you didn’t believe it at first. We’ve all made mistakes. Many of us were right there with you when we moaned and groaned about the Cowboys giving up too much to get him. Jerry Jones took a lot of heat for making this trade as it looked like a panic move, but the more time that passes, the smarter Jerry looks. Yes, first-round draft capital is pricey, but there is no way they’d be able to get a talent like this with a late 2019 first-round pick.7. He’s one of the better trades everBetween the great Herschel Walker train robbery or the big Tony Dorsett trade, the Cowboys have been on the good end of some of the league’s most lopsided deals. And those deals have resulted in Super Bowl trophies. But when news broke of the Amari deal, some immediately started dredging up old memories of the Roy Williams and Joey Galloway trades. It’s safe to say that this deal is far more favorable for Dallas than those blunders and before it’s all said and done could go down as one of the best moves this team has ever made.8. He makes Dak betterThe addition of Cooper has jump-started this Cowboys offense, including bolstering the passing stats of his new quarterback. After Dak Prescott failed to reach 200 yards passing in four of his first six games, he’s been over 200 in every game and is now averaging 285 yards a game with Cooper on the team.9. He makes Zeke betterBefore Cooper showed up Charles Haley Jersey , the recipe for stopping the Cowboys offense was simple - stop Ezekiel Elliott. In fact, in Zeke’s six worst rushing outputs for his career where he’s been held under 70 yards, three of them happened early in the year without Cooper. Teams like Houston, Carolina, and Washington (in the first game) shut Elliott down, holding him to 54, 69, and 33 yards respectively. The Cowboys lost all three of those games.Not only was Elliott having trouble running the ball, but he also wasn’t much of a factor in the passing game. With defenses always closed in, there just wasn’t much space for him to roam. But all that changed with the arrival of Cooper as defenses now have to worry about the explosiveness that 19 adds to the team. Elliott’s numbers have jumped significantly, adding 20 more yards a game to his rushing totals as well as another 30 yards as a receiver. The addition of Cooper has essentially added 50 more yards a game to Elliott’s production. That’s a pretty sizable jump.Zeke is reaping the rewards of the Cooper trade and he knows just how valuable his new teammate is.10. He completes the circuitIt was only four years ago when Cowboys fans were excited about the new triplets of Tony Romo, Dez Bryant, and DeMarco Murray. But just like that all three of them are gone and the Cowboys have a new trio of young stars at those positions. And they aren’t wasting any time working well together. In just their sixth game together, they achieved a franchise first - they had a 400-yard passer, 200-yard receiver, and a 100-yard rusher in the same game. And unlike the triplets before them, this new trio are all 25-years-old or younger.11. He’s a great guyJason Garrett places an emphasis on bringing in the “right kind of guys” to his football team as it’s these types of players that are capable of maximizing their ability and playing to their full potential. That’s why unsexy picks like Zack Martin, Byron Jones, and Leighton Vander Esch aren’t met with excitement at first, but then it’s soon discovered that these guys will give you everything they got.Cooper is another guy who fits that bill. While he’s soft spoken and a man of few words L. P. Ladouceur Color Rush Jersey , his maturity and work ethic make him a great player to coach. A day after his amazing performance against the Eagles, he was out in North Texas helping Blue Star Families spread some holiday cheer.12. He’s youngCoopers numbers since joining the Cowboys would prorate to 106 catches, 1,712 yards, and 16 touchdowns over a 16 game span. That would make him statistically the best receiver in the league, better than Julio Jones (29), Adam Thielen (28), Michael Thomas (25), and Davante Adams (26), who are all having big seasons. But all those guys are older than Cooper (24). Even with his slow start in Oakland this season, no receiver younger than him has more yards or touchdowns than Cooper.The Cowboys are stingy with their draft capital and don’t make trades like this frivolously, but when they have a chance to get a talented, high-character player who’s still so young - they go for it.13. He’ll be around for a whilePeople applauded the Philadelphia Eagles for getting Golden Tate at the low cost of just a third-round draft pick, whereas the Cowboys front office panicked going after Cooper.Cooper’s sticking around because Dallas has around $50 million in cap space next season. They wouldn’t have dealt for him if they didn’t have intentions of re-signing him long-term. The Eagles, on the other hand, are projected to be around $12 million over the cap and are going to have to make some cuts somewhere. That doesn’t bode well for them to be able to match offers for Tate when he hit’s free agency in a few months. No playoffs for Philly? Third-round pick - gone. Now, tell me again which team made the better trade?Speaking of Philly...14. Amari crushed the Eagles’ NFC East hopesThere’s so much to love about Cooper, but delivering the final blow to the Eagles NFC East chances is icing on the cake. The feeling of Eagles fans across the country can be described perfectly by the reaction of defensive back Rasul Douglas.15. Just needed a change of sceneryThere was some concern that Cooper just wasn’t as good as he looked after two Pro Bowl seasons in Oakland because his numbers started declining. Well, they’re back and they’re spectacular.16. He was the best of the bestAlabama has had some star receivers coming out of college over the years, but only one holds the schools receiving records. It’s not Julio Jones and it’s not Calvin Ridley.17. He’s a smart playerOn the Cowboys big 75-yard touchdown play Taco Charlton Jersey , Cooper was supposed to run a stop route, but didn’t like the call because the defense was sitting on that route all day. He tried to get Dak to change it in the huddle, but he didn’t. Fortunately, Dak took his advice and changed his mind at the line of scrimmage. Wise decision.18. He measures upThe Cowboys have had some remarkably talented wide receivers on the team over the years. The legend of the 88 lives strong with Drew Pearson, Michael Irvin, and Dez Bryant. Even recent Hall of Famer Terrell Owens put up big numbers in a Cowboys uniform. As remarkable as these players all were, the per-game numbers Cooper is putting up this season since joining the Cowboys are better than any season from any of these Cowboys greats.19. He’ll help you win your fantasy leagueIf you had Cooper on your fantasy team this week, there’s a good chance you’re advancing to the semi-finals. Way back in the days of the 2018 offseason, the Dallas Cowboys were shopping around for wide receivers. In a weird way.Dallas had eyes for Sammy Watkins who was coming off of a one-year stint with the Los Angeles Rams. They were outbid for his services by the Kansas City Chiefs and wound up with Allen Hurns. This was a weird consolation prize even though statistically they were actually quite comparable. About a month after this whole affair, the Cowboys further clouded the situation by releasing Dez Bryant. Who was going to play the number one receiver for them? Allen Hurns? No disrespect to the Jaguar-turned-Cowboy, but that seemed unlikely. Missing out on Sammy Watkins seemed to hurt more all the sudden.As we all know, the Cowboys struggled mightily on offense over the first half of the season (they aren’t setting the world on fire now but they’ve undoubtedly improved) and made a last-second trade with the Oakland Raiders for Amari Cooper. Five games in there is only one loss during his time in Dallas and he measures up quite favorably next to what Watkins has done in Kansas City... in twice the time! Amari Cooper already looked like the better option to have over Sammy Watkins, and then news concerning the latter surfaced on Friday. Watkins has been dealing with a foot injury during this season and appears to have re-aggravated it. From our friends at Arrowhead Pride:Not only has Amari Cooper almost outperformed Sammy Watkins in half the time (with a lesser option at quarterback, no disrespect to Dak Prescott but he’s not Pat Mahomes), but now Watkins is conceivably going to miss the rest of the regular season. Given what Cooper has meant to the revitalization of the Cowboys offense it seems fair to say that Dallas would be up a creek without a paddle if it were Watkins in his shoes instead.Sometimes the best moves in the NFL are the ones that don’t happen. Sammy landed a three-year, $48M contract ($30M guaranteed) with the Chiefs and while the Cowboys gave up a first-round draft pick for Cooper he’s been more than worth that particular price.
