Which part? Everybody I know in Tuscaloosa who dealt with Sims loved the guy.

Amari Cooper had more receiving yards this year than Mark Ingram had rushing yards his heisman year. Two of the worst heisman decisions ever
The Heisman is a QB's award to lose...when Ingram won the Heisman in '09, there wasn't a QB that put up overwhelming numbers so he was able to win. This past year, Mariota's numbers were too impressive for Cooper (and Gordon) to overcome; and, even then, there were a couple of 2,000 yard rushers to compete with as well. In '08, '10, '11, '12, and '13, QBs were puttin' up PlayStation numbers and the vote was a foregone conclusion...
I'm guessin' that if you plug in Cooper's numbers for '09, he'd have probably won that year...and if you plug in Ingram's numbers for this past season, he definitely would not have won. The Heisman is a product of the particular year it's being awarded; that being said, Ingram was a worthy winner that year, but it was so close that any of the other finalists would've been worthy as well...

The Vikings QB situation and overall management is about the same as the Raiders.
I'm going to assume you mean the old Raiders, because the current Raiders are doing everything right across the board and will be a very solid team in about 2 years.
Cooper is going to give Carr a weapon he desperately needs.

Had Coop been in OJs' shoes at the end of the Ole Miss game ,Bama would have scored that td.
He has very strong hands and makes the play when he has too.
I cain't remember a WO any better at Bama. Dennis Holman was close though.

Cooper has never shown himself to be a prima-donna, which is rare for the WR position. I would take his character and match it up against anyone. When he scores, he definitely acts like he's been there before. 
Nothing needs to be said about his football prowess.

Hope he falls to Falcons at 8, but I'm worried he'll end up somewhere like Cleveland or Jets without a decent QB and never be able to reach full potential. Oakland would be better than Browns or Jets, but Falcons would be ideal...they've got too many other needs tho.

Raiders are taking Cooper.
Only way they don't is if Williams somehow falls to 4.

I'll take your word for it. You seem like you follow the Raiders far more closely than I do.
I can't wait until Coop puts up a 40 time in the low 4.4s or high 4.3s and everyone realizes he's more than just a crisp route runner. He's got serious speed.
I like Carr. Seems like a good person, but also has a very high ceiling.

If the Falcons draft another receiver and not a pass rusher I (and everyone else) are going to flip their shiznit and burn TD's house down

Would you want to be a Raider? I'm not sure getting drafted by the Raiders or the Browns would be worse..
Yes, I would not mind it. Considering he will rake in as much in 2 years than I will over 30 years. And it has taken me 14 years of education since high school constantly performing at the top of my class to get where I am. So, I don't really feel bad for the guy either way.

they won't. i was just wishful thinking about Amari having a great WR opposite of him so he could shine.
Falcons need a pass rusher and I imagine Quinn would fist fight TD if he tried to draft any other spot

Not really. Sims had tunnel vision for him all season long and Kiffin's offense inflates top receivers numbers. Just ask Marquise Lee. Cooper's numbers actually hurt the offense in a lot of ways because they did a very poor job finding ways to get other players the ball like Henry, Howard, and White. So when Cooper gets contained by the other team, Kiffin had no idea what the hell to do and the offense goes into funks and looks very disjointed like against LSU, Arkansas, second half of Ole Miss, and a good part of the Ohio State game as well.
You have to feed the beast. Cooper is a freak.

Which is why you get totally drunk, toss some beads at tittys, and get hit on by some tranny's. You'll forget the smell.
