How does the Cowboys' deal compare to the Browns' recent move?

Amari Cooper's NFL career has been a long and winding road.

The former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver, once a first-round draft pick out of Alabama, has now been traded twice in the last three seasons, with the most recent transaction coming Tuesday when Cooper was traded from Cleveland to Buffalo.

How did the 2018 trade that brought Cooper to Dallas compare to the other deals teams have made for the five-time Pro Bowler? Let's take a look at the numbers:
