Back to EpisodesPittsburgh Steelers Eye Omar Cooper Jr. for Draft
Description
Omar Cooper Junior, a standout wide receiver from Indiana, is gaining traction as a top pick for the Pittsburgh Steelers in the 2026 NFL Draft. Standing at six feet tall and 199 pounds, Cooper boasts impressive speed and agility, with a four-point-four-second forty-yard dash time. Known for his explosive acceleration and yards after the catch, he can line up flexibly and overpower defenders. However, he lacks experience as a top option and has shown inconsistent effort blocking runs. Despite these drawbacks, his recent production surge, from 18 catches and 267 yards in 2023 to 69 receptions, 937 yards, and 13 touchdowns in 2025, has propelled him up draft boards. Cooper could provide the Steelers with a dynamic weapon for years to come.
