He's also the Shanahansiest WR in the draft no?

I think it's either Cooper or Boston at 27 for now - combine could change things obv.

What if he only runs a 4.46 or 4.47? Do those two hundreths of a second make a difference? It's less than a half a foot at 40 yards.

Yeah the Rams have 2 first round picks with the first being #13

Rams will not use #13 on Cooper though

Might make a difference picking him at 27 imo due to his size. 4.37 is a lot different than a 4.42 which is a lot different than a 4.47 for a guy like him.

4.46 or 4.47 I'd prefer to trade into the 2nd if we want him. We need speed especially if not a Denzel Boston type WR. A big guy like Boston runs a 4.46-4.47 hell yes I'd take him at #27.

I would not want to pass up on a DT like MacDonald or an EDGE like Mesidor and let Seattle draft that beast at #32 for a smaller WR who runs 4.46-4.47, especially when there are some really good similar type WRs to Cooper (Antonio Williams/Kevin Coleman) that we could grab in the 2nd-4th round.

i'm a big fan of Cooper but if they use the 13th overall on him then I'm ok with it.

This.
I would not be upset if the Niners selected Omar in the first round. He's moving up the draft boards..

The difference between a 4.37 and a 4.42 is about one foot. The real differenc is harder to calculate since many of the fastest times are run by smaller plyers who may be slowed more with all the equipment. This is why I don't put a lot of weight in the 40 times. On top of that these guys often drop a little weight and train just to get a faster time.

What really matters is how do they perform in games. I'll take a good route runner with good hands over the fastest guy any day..

I agree, however, I as I said above I am not going to pass over at 27 a talent like McDonald for a good route runner with good hands that is not super fast (ie does not run sub 4.45.

You mention 4.37 and 4.42 - both fine for 27 is Kyle loved a guy like Cooper Jr. Earlier you stated 4.46-4.47 which to me is too slow to warrant passing on elite DL talent at 27. I'd love Cooper at 58 if he runs a 4.47 though.

Then again we have barely any WR in our room even if we sign a good one in FA, so if we went Cooper Jr at 27 I'm certainly not going to complain. Then give me Ted Hurst in at 58 and/or Brennan Thompson at 92 and we can move on to other positions

You realize that Nacua ran a 4.57 and Njigba was clocjked at 4.48. Two pretty good receivers that aren't burners.

I don't think Cooper is a top 50 player. He is a good receiver but he wasn't even the best WR on his team.

I'd take him at 2.58 if available though. It's just that he is too redundant to Pearsall IMO.
40 times are becoming obsolete. The good teams put more stock in the gps than 40 times.

Omar Cooper hit a top speed of 21.1 mph on that 75-yard TD vs Kennesaw state. I couldn't care less what he runs. The dude is football fast.

Nacua went in what round ...

Njigba was the 20th pick in the 1st round but also had crazy production with 96 rec for 1,600 yards and 9TDs his last year at OSU in just 13 games. Cooper Jr had 69 rec for 900 yards and 13 TDs last year in 16 games. JSN far superior there.

If McDonald, Concepcion, Sadiq, and Boston are all gone Cooper Jr would be great. And even if one of those guys are not gone as that would mean Kyle really liked him.

Pearsall ran a 4.41 at the combine - if Cooper Jr can run near that fast I'm good with him at #27 as we NEED top talent at WR to threaten Seattle's D on the outside as our cupboard is almost bare.

I agree. I want Kayden McDonald or Sadiq but I don't think they will be there and I don't think we take them anyways. I like Denzel Boston and KC Conception too but it's unlikely they will be available

Cooper fits a lot of things we want to do on offense.

Bad metric JJ wasnt the best on his own team either. Neither were Garret Wilson, Puka, or even Tate this year who is going to go top 5 to top 10. And thats just recent memory. Tape should dictate all this
