Well, the talent sale at the Oakland Raiders continues. The Cowboys are giving up a 1st round pick for Cooper's services. If the Raider Nation was unsure if they were in the middle of a rebuild or not, this should put those questions to bed.

I drafted cooper in my fantasy draft. Was about to drop him, but think I'll wait.

Might be time to sell high, someone will give up too much for him and no receiver puts up big numbers with Dak.

wonder where Carr is on the fire sale list?

I'm guessing Chucky is holding onto him until he gets another first round pick from somebody (maybe the Giants?)

Carr is a really great fit for that offense, but I could see him getting punted out of Oakland.

I think the offense is the problem. Greg Olson has 10 previous years as an OC, and zero playoff appearances, that includes a two-year stint in Oakland from '13-'14.
