Cooper combines YAC production with downfield ability; unique dual-skill profile.

Omar Cooper has a unique dual-skill-set profile: he generates a significant percentage of his yards from both YAC (yards after catch) and downfield targets, making him one of the only receivers in recent years to balance both. The source describes him as 'kind of Debo underneath with the football in his hands' while also capable of getting open and winning contested catches downfield. This combination is viewed as 'awesome for an NFL player to have,' though he is not a perfect prospect. The source is actively trying to acquire more exposure to Cooper despite his ADP rise, viewing him as a potential seventh or eighth round pick who could land in the first round depending on landing spot. The source has gotten higher on Cooper as a rookie wide receiver prospect, in part because the NFL seems to really like him, indicating improving draft conviction based on professional evaluation signals.
