Cooper Kupp: Grandfather| MVP| Super bowl stats
Grandfather:
Kupp has solid size for the position at 6’2″, 204 pounds with excellent hands that make him an ideal outside receiver. Even without elite speed, he can win battles with the ball in the air and give his quarterback a wide margin for error. He also isn’t going to settle now that he has reached the NFL.
“No part of my game is ever gonna be good enough for me,” Kupp said on Sirius XM NFL Radio earlier this month. “Always going to be part of my game under construction.”
MVP:
The Rams took tight end Gerald Everett from South Alabama with their first pick in the draft. Kupp gives the team the outside weapon it needs to help turn Goff into a franchise quarterback one year after he was drafted first overall.
He should be able to make an early impact for a Rams team that lost its best receiver to free agency in Kenny Britt. Jared Goff will clearly need weapons to help his development in his second year.

Neither the Rams nor Bengals will lack star power on offense when the teams face off in SoFi Stadium on Sunday with Super Bowl 56 on the line.
Yet, in a game that will feature the likes of Matthew Stafford, Odell Beckham Jr., Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase, the most dangerous player on the field could very well be the Rams’ Cooper Kupp, who is on the heels of one of the greatest single seasons by a receiver in NFL history.
