In Madden 19, gamers can try to make any trades they want, even the most outlandish. However, those trades have to be officially approved by both teams’ front offices in order to go through. That often results in real NFL trades not working as a Madden 19 trade. A great example is Khalil Mack who the Raiders traded to the Bears. While it actually happened in real life NFL, it was rejected in the game, at first. Now, another Raiders star has been traded, and Madden 19 fans are seeing if it goes through.
Amari Cooper’s Madden 19 trade official
On Monday, big trade news arrived as the Oakland Raiders sent Amari Cooper to the Dallas Cowboys. In exchange, Dallas gave the struggling Raiders a first-round pick. There are plenty of fans out there who believe this was too much to give up for Cooper. That first-round pick could translate into a future star while Cooper could never quite recapture the level he showed in his first few seasons.
So this probably would mean a virtual trade of this nature would be rejected in Madden, right? Not at all. In fact, one gamer posted his online screenshot and mentioned they were surprised by the results.

As seen above, the Madden 19 trade went through in Franchise Mode with no issues from either side. That means Amari Cooper is officially joining the Cowboys in real and virtual NFL.

The powers that be at EA Sports also seem to be in full support mode when it comes to this particular deal. They posted some nice new visuals of what Cooper looks like in the Dallas Cowboys silver, blue, and white uniform.

The Dallas Cowboys were in need of some help on offense after losing Dez Bryant. Now they bring in veteran Amari Cooper. Unfortunately, he was recently placed in the concussion protocol so his status for playing in Week 8 was questionable.
He’s been in the league since 2015 with the Raiders and tallied 3,183 receiving yards as well as 19 touchdowns so far. Now it will be interesting to see how Dak Prescott connects with him on the field. Until that next Cowboys game occurs, Madden 19 gamers can test him out on the virtual field.
