A quick “What am I?” riddle
I'm always dropped, but never picked up.
I'm covered with copper in particular, though I describe many types of metal
Winners do me, losers are me.
My innards taste like meat; my outside looks bent.
Who am I?

Are you
BEAT?
I'm always dropped, but never picked up.
“Drop the Beat” is a popular phrase, but “Pick Up the Beat” is not.
I'm covered with copper in particular, though I describe many types of metal
Copper wire is used in Beats headphones; although any malleable metal can be beat.
Winners do me, losers are me.
Winners beat others, losers are beat by others.
My innards taste like meat; my outside looks bent.
The interior/innards of bEAt are the same as those of mEAt. The exterior/outside of BeaT are the same as those of BenT.

@El-Guest correct, except the copper was a reference to police officers (colloquially called coppers) out on their beat.
