What's up With Riley Cooper?

I’ve seen Cooper make some great plays (A few diving catches this year, the ball that should have been a pick last year that he snagged away from the defender), but I’ve also seen him botch one or two, (the deflection of his hands that turned into an easy int) however, I really like Cooper and have been impressed with what he can do when he actually sees time. I would like to see him worked in a bit more. He showed some flashes when VY was under center and Maclin was hurt.

I think he has potential. Just wont get much of a chance here. I kinda think he’ll wind up like Gibson and Amendola. Just hidden in our depth chart and maybe eventually traded away where he’ll become a pretty solid producer.

The white Hank Baskett.

He’s a good backup if someone goes down and he s an excellent special teams player.

In other words, he’s a typical fifth round WR.

He’s a 4th or 5th guy at best but since he’s 6’4’’ Philly fans have fell in love with him since draft day and are still waiting for him to become the next T.O.

Last season I noticed Vick went to Cooper quite a bit and I thought they were gonna have some chemestry. Then Cooper had that nice catch against the Ravens in the pre season. But after that we really didnt use him. He did have some good games when Maclin was out, but I guess theres just to many mouths to feed on that offense.

If it’s a slant, he jumps and catches with his body. Post, jumps, catches it with his body. Shit, I bet he’d jump and catch with his body on a bubble screen. Whats so hard about extending your hands for the ball?

He certainly has the best hair on the team and that’s what really matters.

Umm, Riley Cooper kind of isn’t good at all. If he wasn’t on the roster next year, I wouldn’t care. He’s a big receiver who has bad hands, runs bad routes and struggles after the catch. The best thing he does is get deep but he doesn’t even do that all that well simply because he isn’t very fast. He caught 48% of his targets this year, he is a highly unreliable target. He dropped 4 passes and 3 of his targets led to incompletions. And he struggles to attack the ball in the air too, he plays like he is 5’10". And he wasn’t a good special teamer, he was really only part of the kick return unit that was one of the worst in the NFL. I wouldn’t be surprised to see him beat out for a spot by Mardy Gilyard or Ronald Johnson.

…is that he isn’t as bad as Chad Hall. The bottom receiver on this team won’t be on the active roster next year…that makes Hall the odd man out and Cooper safe, for now.

Cooper is a big receiver that plays fast. He has excellent hands when the ball is not thrown to him…but turns into James Thrash when it is.

Give him some more snaps and then well see

I managed to get a tour of the NovaCare Center last year. There was a smoking hot blonde MILF waiting at the entrance with her young son as we were waiting to be let in. A couple of players walk out one by onet, and Riley Cooper is one of them. The MILF looked like she forgot she was with her son and just stared at Riley as he walked by. She was practically drooling and sounded like she was out of breath when she says to me, “Who was that?” I tell her that was Riley Cooper, rookie WR. I look over at my wife and she’s gawking at him too. I hate that guy.
