Which newly relocated receiver has the most upside?
When I did my analysis and talked it over with a few sources, I decided it on two things.

1. age. who is younger, thus stronger and faster
2. which one will engage my wife with relations

You know, I saw the name Golden Tate in a thread title here and I thought somebody missed the S in Golden State.

Sounds like how Eddie Murphy's Gumby character would pronounce Golden State. Maybe that's how his parents named him.

and isn't the potential for either WR based on the guy throwing them the ball? We all know Wentz is the best there ever was/will be... so I gotta go with Tate.

How do you know the Eagles didn't start with a 3rd or 4th for Cooper? Maybe they went to a second and were willing to go no further.

How do you know the Eagles weren't willing to give up a second for Tate but Detroit jumped on the 3rd? Detroit is the worst managed organization in the NFL so that is not only plausible, but probable.

It's called negotiating.
BS. Why the Hell would they have offered a two for Cooper BEFORE they went and got Tate for a three? So your theory is that liked Tate more than Cooper, but they decided to offer higher compensation for a WR they liked less before pulling the trigger on the guy they really wanted? Brilliant

Because the Raiders were obvious sellers at the time they traded Cooper. It’s not that difficult.

Cooper has better upside. Tate is just another AGholor type slot receiver.

Cooper wins.

Cooper is a lot younger and more valuable in that regard but he would have been a #2 WR for Philly and their 3rd option which would have been ok. But in Dallas he’s the lead and he seems like a better 2. I’m glad we didn’t do a 2 and would have disagreed. Just saw a stat that Cooper has 4 hundred yard games in his last 20 games. Take those 4 away and he has 30 something catches for 400+ yard over 16 games. Yuck.

Cooper won't sleep with teammates wives'...that's a bonus.

He's younger, stronger, faster, and more reliable.

He does have a better upside and it made sense Dallas going for the younger guy but there’s a chance it could be a top 10 pick and that would hurt really REALLY bad. He might not reach his upside either. Time will tell.

They gave up a draft pick for someone to play 8 games?

No wonder that GM is considered to be the best in all of NFL as mentioned in all my comic books and preview magazines that I hang all my hopes and dreams on.
