Funny how the Raiders got a 1st rounder for Amari Cooper but were able to get AB for a 3rd and a 5th.
It almost makes you forget how stupid it was to trade away Khalil Mack.

you can't pay 2 people on a 52 man roster 50 million a year. it sucks that they had to get rid of mack but they got good value. Look at what they're doing in past 24 hours. putting AB and now a top OL. Watch them get Leveon and all of a sudden they can draft defense and won't suck.
Brown is also 30, they're paying him 50m over 3 years, and he's a cancer. Also isn't a good fit for the system
Cooper is 24, works better in the cowboys system, still on his rookie deal...
I guess you can say both sides won, but really Dallas won because the raiders will still go 6-10 with brown
Amari Cooper is on his 5th year getting $13,924,000 before hitting FA next year, Brown's getting an average of 2 mil more than that a year. Amari obviously wasn't the best fit in Gruden's system given how every week was either 20 yards or 100 yards. Brown could put up 100 yards a game with Landry Jones. This should be an upgrade over Cooper for the Raiders, but that doesn't mean Cooper won't be great for the Cowboys.
When the Raiders were legit good under Jon Gruden the WRs were 35+ year old Tim Brown and Jerry Rice. The good WRs Gruden has had have always been basically 30+ like Joey Galloway, Keenan McCardell, Antonio Bryant and although drama Keyshawn Johnson on the Bucs. With the Eagles pre-Raiders he had a 30+ year old WR too that was like 1200 yard type.
It's way harder finding a good young WR that has worked for Gruden.

Why do so many people want to go to Oakland all of a sudden?

Give the browns a couple of more years to improve. Then we will talk.
