Coming from Cleveland, Cooper gets a massive upgrade at quarterback and he finds himself in a much better situation.

With all due respect to guys like Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Mack Hollins, the Bills wouldn’t be considered true threats down the stretch if they were going into the last part of the regular season with that receiving core. One of the most untalked about factors with this trade is that the Bills managed to snag Cooper away before a team like the Kansas City Chiefs could swoop in and grab him.</p><p>The Chiefs are in a desperate need for wide receiver and them losing Cooper to a team like the Bills, who are right behind them in the AFC, puts them in a tough position to make a run for the number one seed in the AFC.</p></div></body>
