No undrafted free agent has gotten more buzz so far than Josh Cooper, who is a wide receiver, currently of the Cleveland Browns. This is because the Browns have been praising him and his ability to get open underneath endlessly this offseason. Cooper is expected to not only make the Browns, but to compete for a slot receiver job with Jordan Norwood, Travis Benjamin, and Josh Cribbs, which shows just how thin the Browns are at receiver.
Greg Little and Mohamed Massaquoi will start outside, but Cooper is really impressing and he has past experience with quarterback Brandon Weeden from Oklahoma State, catching 71 passes for 715 yards and 3 touchdowns, playing off of Justin Blackmon last season. The 5-9 180 pound Cooper could start the season 4th on the depth chart behind Little, Massaquoi, and 4th round rookie Travis Benjamin. Josh Cribbs will make the roster because of his special teams ability, but Norwood and Carlton Mitchell are going to be squarely on the roster bubble with Mitchell as the less likely one to stay.
