Amari Cooper, Brandon Aiyuk's Top Landing Spots After Stefon Diggs' Patriots Contract
Another free agent wide receiver is off the market after Stefon Diggs signed with the New England Patriots on Tuesday.
Diggs signing comes after top options like Davante Adams, Chris Godwin and more signed with their respective teams. Now, the market is getting a bit thin in terms of available wide receivers.
Still, one of the top options, Amari Cooper is still available. Another option for teams this offseason could be Brandon Aiyuk, who the San Francisco 49ers are reportedly open to trading.
After Diggs joined the Patriots, here are a few of the top landing spots for Cooper and Aiyuk.
Amari Cooper's Top Landing Spots
1 of 2
Las Vegas Raiders
Amari Cooper began his career with the Raiders back in 2015 and had some of his best years with the team. He recorded a pair of 1,000-plus receiving yard seasons while in Oakland before being traded to the Dallas Cowboys in 2018.
Now, as Cooper's career begins to come to a close, running it back with the team that drafted him could be the best option.
Las Vegas has revamped its offense this offseason by trading for Geno Smith, but the Raiders could still use some help. They have a pair of solid receiving threats in tight end Brock Bowers and wide receiver Jakobi Meyers, and Cooper could compliment those two well.
Cooper, 30, would also likely sign for a relatively low cost as the Raiders continue to rebuild.
New Orleans Saints
The Saints are desperate for talent this offseason, but they don't have much money to spend.
That means New Orleans will have to settle for missing out on top free agents and instead sign players for reasonable prices. Cooper, likely past his prime, could be a cheap, yet reliable option.
The Saints have a young WR1 in Chris Olave, but he struggled with injuries and played just eight games in 2024. New Orleans could pair Cooper alongside Olave to have a solid option in case Olave has more injury trouble in 2025.
Brandon Aiyuk's Top Landing Spots

Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans are armed with the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL draft and will presumably draft either Cam Ward or Shedeur Sanders.
Assuming the Titans go with a quarterback in the draft, the best thing they can do to set him up for success is bringing in a talented wide receiver.
Tennessee lost its second-leading receiver from last year in Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, who signed with the Miami Dolphins in free agency. The Titans will bring back Calvin Ridley, but there aren't many receiving options beyond him.
Tennessee might have to put together a sizable haul for the 49ers to trade Aiyuk, but it could be a worthwhile investment for their next quarterback.
Carolina Panthers
Adding a wide receiver should be near the top of the priority list for the Panthers this offseason.
Carolina is starting to see improvement from quarterback Bryce Young, but he doesn't have elite talent to throw to. His most reliable option is veteran Adam Thielen, though the 34-year-old's playing days are likely nearing their end.
The Panthers can make Aiyuk their No. 1 option while having Thielen as a solid No. 2. Carolina also has a young talent in Xavier Legette, but it's clear he still needs some time to develop.
Adding Aiyuk would give Young a talented target to work with as the Panthers continue their rebuild.
