Did Puka Nacua's record-setting year expose Cooper Kupp as a system receiver?

Cooper ran 4.62 in the 40 in the combine, Puka ran 4.57. There's a reason Cooper wasn't drafted until the 3rd round and Puka in the 6th last pick of the 5th.



And this was Puka's draft report on his route running less than 12 months ago:


NEGATIVES

— Route tree was limited at BYU. Used as more of a hybrid gadget player than legitimate wide receiver.

— Below-average route-running skills. Too clunky getting in and out of breaks.

:laff: :laff: :laff: omg this nikka is falling the fukk off. Posting 40 times and oiutdated draft reports to call players HE DOESNT WATCH slow :laff:

Breh just caught as many passes his rookie year in the NFL as he caught in all four years at UW and BYU combined. :wtf:


Not saying Cooper isn't a good receiver. :whoa:


But Offensive Player of the Year and Super Bowl MVP was too much. :camby:

:mjlol: I'm no Rams fan and rooted for Cincy in that SB but healthy Cooper is legit

Puka is great. Everyone knows I have no love for the Lambs... terrible franchise, they move around more than a Military family. But Puka is legit.

He's a hard running, physical receiver, seeking out contact. Him and Cooper aren't much alike at all. Both good receivers that would complement each other well if Cooper was his old self.
