'Clearly growth' between 'confident, comfortable' Amari Cooper and Derek Carr

Amari Cooper received praise for his performance during the Raiders offseason program.

It was deserved. The second-year receiver was excellent in practices open to the press, working in precision with quarterback Derek Carr.

There’s clearly growth between passer and receiver, but Cooper himself has a spring in his step. He’s confident, comfortable with the Raiders and his place in the NFL.

Fantasy Impact: 

Cooper suffered a foot injury in practice after Week 13. Prior to the injury, he was playing at an 83-1243-5.3 pace, and was the #18 receiver in standard and #17 in PPR. Over the final four games, he only managed 10 catches for 150 total yards and two touchdowns. Now that he’s back to full health, we’re expecting the early-season version of Cooper, and he may make further strides in his second season.
