Amari Cooper Traded To Cleveland Browns For Day 3 Draft Picks | Dallas Cowboys News & Reaction

Breaking Dallas Cowboys news today: the Amari Cooper trade has been agreed to, and the star WR is headed to the Cleveland Browns. Here are the trade details:
- Browns get: Amari Cooper & the Cowboys’ 2022 6th round pick
- Cowboys get: The Browns’ 2022 5th round pick & 2022 6th round pick

The Cowboys remove $20 MM in salary in the move, and save $16 MM against the 2022 NFL salary cap. Instead of cutting Cooper, the Cowboys do “get something” in the deal by grabbing an extra 5th and moving up in the 6th round of the 2022 NFL draft.

Stephen Jones has made it clear this off-season that Dallas was going to clear cap space instead of restructure several high-priced contracts. Cowboys rumors have surfaced that Demarcus Lawrence and La’el Collins could also be on the way out to help that process. Latest Cowboys rumors do suggest that Lawrence isn’t going anywhere, despite the team asking him to take a pay cut. There were several Cowboys trade rumors reported today that Collins could fetch trade value thanks to his reasonable contract.
