re: Amari Cooper is not as good as OBJ

Mettenberger, Landry, OBJ, Hill, Blue...


No wonder LSU's offense has been so bad these last 2 years.

Can't wait until LSU actually brings in some talent and can compete in the West.

Cooper's made his share of acrobatic catches but what makes him so good is his attention to technique. When a receiver runs his route to perfection, he's nearly impossible to defend. That's Cooper.

I believe it was Mel Kiper Jr. that compared Cooper's work ethic to Jerry Rice. That's because he's obsessed with doing every little thing the right way.

Let me know when cooper is putting up these type of numbers and making these kind of jaw dropping plays in the league.

Well, Cooper is not in the league yet, so you can only evaluate their college careers.

OBJ - 143 catches, 2,340 yards, 16.36 YPC, 12 TDs, 1 TD per every 12 catches.

Cooper - 194 catches, 3,085 yards, 15.90 YPC, 26 TDs, 1 TD per every 7.46 catches.

Cooper wins every category of measurement of a receiver except for YPC (barely).

OBJ is phenomenal and will have a long, successful career in the NFL. Let his work in the NFL stand on its own without comparing him to a college WR who he doesn't stack up well against in a true apples to apples comparison.

Remember that time when LSU and their 4 NFL starters at skill positions swagged into Bryant Denny and put up a jawdropping 17 points and 284 total yards?

Incredible.
