Amari Cooper won’t help the Cowboys this year. Trade deadline history proves it

Amari Cooper could very well become an essential cog in the Cowboys’ offense.

So, too, could Texans wideout Demaryius Thomas and Eagles wide receiver Golden Tate.

Houston surrendered a fourth-round draft pick to the Denver Broncos for Thomas, while Philadelphia shipped out a third-round pick to the Detroit Lions for Tate.

Jones sent a first-round pick to the Oakland Raiders in exchange for Cooper’s services.

But if history is any indication, those receivers will not provide much help to their respective teams. At least not this season.
