Raiders Trade Amari Cooper to Cowboys for First-Round Pick

Head coach Jon Gruden and the Raiders will have three first-round picks in 2019

Wide receiver Amari Cooper is on his way out of Oakland.

Rumored to be on the trade block, Cooper has been traded to the Dallas Cowboys, GM Reggie McKenzie confirmed to reporters in Alameda on Monday.

News of a deal was first reported by ESPN's Josina Anderson and news that the Raiders would get a first-round pick was first reported by ESPN's Adam Schefter.

With the acquisition of Dallas' first-round pick, head coach Jon Gruden and the Raiders will have three first-round picks in 2019: their own, the Bears' pick acquired in the Khalil Mack trade and now the Cowboys' pick.

Back on Oct. 14, the NFL Network reported that the Raiders were shopping Cooper and fellow former first-round pick safety Karl Joseph.
