Friday the Carolina Panthers Pharoh Cooper to a one-year contract.

A fourth-round draft pick of the Rams in 2016, Cooper earned All-Pro and Pro Bowl honors in 2017 as a returner with 932 yards and a touchdown on 34 kickoff returns to go with 399 yards on 32 punt returns. His 103-yard kickoff return for a touchdown against Jacksonville that season earned him NFC Special Teams Player of the Week honors.

Last season, Cooper played in 13 games – one with the Bengals and 12 with the Cardinals. He recorded a career-high 25 receptions for 243 yards and a touchdown. He also returned 25 kickoffs for 561 yards and 17 punts for 129 yards.

In his four-year NFL career, Cooper has played for the Rams (2016-18), Cardinals (2018, 2019) and Bengals (2019), seeing action in 46 games with five starts and one playoff appearance.

Cooper attended Havelock (N.C.) High School and played collegiately at South Carolina where he was a two-time All-SEC selection and ranked second in the conference in receiving yards (1,136) in 2014.

I don't understand why we're screwing ourselves on comp picks with these bottom of the roster type signings. It just doesn't make any sense.

I'm enjoying them. young, cheap players with upside. 

[Mr. Scot]

He's a guy I was surprised we hadn't looked at previously.

The Panthers continue to add wide receivers, without adding household names.

Unless that household is in Egypt.

You do know that all these signings have to meet a dollar threshold and the player has to make the 53 (or 55 now) for them to count against the comp pick formula

Because there is no one involved with the team with any meaningful experience? Maybe we will figure that caveat out next year?

Great signing.
