Cooper's numbers in games where Foles played most of the snaps in 2013:
GMS TRGS RECS YDS YPR YPT TDS11 5.45 3.36 66.27 19.70 12.15 0.64I expect his numbers to go down across the board except for the trgs and recs, but not drastically. He's still looks like a cheap WR2-3. He's ADP was in the 50s during my last startup draft. He'll likely get you 1000yds, 7-10+ TDs.
Desean Jackson's #s w/Foles:
GMS TRGS RECS YDS YPR YPT TDS11 7.09 4.82 79.64 16.53 11.23 0.64
Jackson's ADP is probably fair. I just wanted to point out what kind of discount Cooper is with the way Foles spreads the ball around. The production was closer than you'd think, even with Jackson having outliner games like vs Minn w/16 TRGS. His TDS should regress.Optimistically, this offense can mirror GB's with Rodgers during the Jennings and Jordy days. Ertz can play Findley. He'll be just as disappointing IMO. He has better hands than Findley, but he might be just as overrated of an athlete in the FF community. Maclin could be James Jones + Donald Driver. There are targets to go around, especially when your QB is throwing near 10.5 AY/A. I doubt Chip passes as much as GB did, but the upside is there for all of these guys to catch 50-70 balls and be weekly FF starters in 2014 barring injury. At least it'll be fun to watch.
Ertz:
Code:
GMS TRGS RECS YDS YPR YPT TDS11 4.18 2.82 32.45 11.52 7.76 0.36
Avant:
Code:
GMS TRGS RECS YDS YPR YPT TDS11 4.91 2.18 23.09 10.58 4.70 0.09
Avant was awful in this offense. A lot of people are assuming one of these guys (Maclin or Cooper) will have to sacrifice a lot. I don't agree. Maclin can slide in nicely and do a lot better by just doing more with his targets. There is also the slight chance Chip dials up the passing attempts to the 30-35 range. I doubt it though.
