What did the Browns ultimately get for trading Amari Cooper?

The Browns received a third-round selection, which settled at 94 overall when the draft order was announced in 2025. The Browns selected a potential quarterback of the future in Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel, but that is very much in doubt in a crowded room under a new head coach now. The pick the Browns received in 2026 ended up at 242, but Cleveland traded the pick from the Amari Cooper trade during August 2025. The Jets sent pick 182 to the Browns in exchange for 242 and DT Jowon Briggs. The Browns then sent pick 182 and Greg Newsome to the Jaguars for Tyson Campbell and pick 239 in October. The pick ended up being used by the Seattle Seahawks on DT Deven Eastern after it was traded by the Jets.

How did Amari Cooper play for the Bills in 2025?

What did the Bills do with the pick from the Amari Cooper trade?

Buffalo received a 2025 sixth-round selection in addition to Cooper. The Bills flipped that as part of the trade that sent Kaiir Elam to the Dallas Cowboys. The Bills got pick 170 in the fifth round of 2025 in exchange for the sixth-rounder and Elam. They selected Jordan Hancock with the selection.

Who won the Amari Cooper trade between the Bills and Browns?

Even with how the Browns have handled the QBs and the picks, I think it’s a clear win for the Browns. The Bills traded a Day 2 pick for a receiver they thought would make a difference and he just didn’t. It isn’t a runaway win for Cleveland, but it’s clearly in their favor.
