they've given up 1 WR TD all year, optimist viewpoint: they're due to give up a WR TDI pretty much have to play him. I read Denver has safety injuries but they likely get Ware back so they probably cancel each other out...

What rookie WR's have broken 1,200 yards historically? Moss/Boldin/Beckham are only ones i can think of off the top of my head. I'm sure there are a few more but not many.All in, how has he done this year as a rookie? He'll end this year around an 80-1,200-5.5 kinda stat line. Is that even with initial projections? Still a top 10 (maybe 5) dynasty WR?
Right, and as such would it be crazy to have this guy as a top 3 dynasty WR now with Beckham and maybe Brown?What rookie WR's have broken 1,200 yards historically?

1,200+ yards would be incredible for a rookie WR.
I am forced to start him this week thanks to cooks being concussed in practice. You gotta be kidding me......Fwiw He is scoring (fantasy) better in away games this year and every time I bench him he does well
Amari Cooper went catch-less on eight targets in the Raiders' Week 14 win over the Broncos.
Over his last four games, Cooper has managed 15 catches for 188 yards with no touchdowns on 32 targets. The Broncos' cornerbacks -- and Aqib Talib, in particular -- had tight coverage on Cooper in this game, but Cooper also failed to reel in several catch-able passes. Still, we'd look for a bounce-back game from Cooper when the Raiders host the Packers in Week 15. It's worth noting top Green Bay CB Sam Shields was concussed in Sunday's win over Dallas.

Lets just say he averages 30 yards a game over his next two and hits 1,100 for his rookie campaign.
Hobbling around with negative points currently, what a disasterMy concern would be more about Cooper's foot which seemed fine last week.
He can barely walk. What did you expect?I thought this kid was matchup proof. Seems to have hit a rookie wall. And the injury bug.
Yes.Should have have been on the inactive list
I didn't think anyone was starting him. Desperate?thanks for that -.9 points in championship week Amari,
Yes. Beckham suspension and no other options. Wasn't confident in him but didn't realize he was hurt so badly, he looked great last weekend.I didn't think anyone was starting him. Desperate?thanks for that -.9 points in championship week Amari,

Not sure why he was on the field at all.What did you expect?He can barely walk. What did you expect?I thought this kid was matchup proof. Seems to have hit a rookie wall. And the injury bug.
Nobody spoke of the injury being this bad. He was probable. If Cooper was this banged up he should have been listed as questionable at minimum. Wouldn't be surprised if the league slapped them on the wrist for this.
This injury and performance was not baked into ANYONE's projections.
It's funny (or not so funny) that there was not a peep all week on Cooper's injury, no mention by experts of an issue, and he was listed as probable, but early in the game, the broadcasters made clear note not of it.Not sure why he was on the field at all.What did you expect?He can barely walk.

Thanks for these very useful updates
I saw Cooper on Family Fued recently. He was not very quick on his feet to answer a question about who is someone he would prefer to see only once a year. He even had a second chance to answer this question after failing to when he hit the buzzer. He still came up with nothing.
I guess Amari Cooper likes everyone.
Draft accordingly.
Could be that he is not worried about any CB in the league "I'll take em everyday of the week n twice on Sundays"I saw Cooper on Family Fued recently.

Amari Cooper and Derek Carr are spending training camp as roommates "in a concerted effort to enhance chemistry."
Carr and Cooper's effort to build rapport dates back to the spring, when they would meet together to play catch at parks, then met for Carr's "off-the-books" passing camp early in the summer. "Observers made note of the enhanced connection" at OTAs, according to CSN Bay Area's Scott Bair. "(As roommates), we get to talk more," Cooper said. "We are in the room studying plays and we go over some of the things that I can make adjustments on or that maybe he can make adjustments on." Just some #NarrativeStreet worth filing away.

He had 72 catches for 1070 yards and 6 tds last year. Granted, he was a rookie, but he got fed 130 targets so it's not like he was getting treated with kid gloves. He has upside for sure, but he's coming off the board in the second round in redraft leagues on potential ahead of guys who have already been more productive. Cooks is still emerging and had over 1100 yards and 9 tds last year, and hes going after cooper. Demaryius thomas might regress, but it would have to be a lot for him to fall past 1070/6. He's going several picks later. Randall cobb has a stud year under his belt and both he and jordy are healthy. Is there really a round difference between their situations?Too high? Too low??
Way too high for me. I have him with a 4th rounds grade right after Hilton and Cobb. His ADP has him at the 2nd/3rd turn. Now it isn't completely terrible as Cooper is my 32nd overall player and he is the 24th player going off the board, but that early in drafts 8 spots is still pretty big. Here are my thoughts on Cooper:Too high? Too low??

Yes, it would surprise me quite a bit.Some people let dynasty rankings cloud their redraft
However would it surprise anyone if cooper was talked about as a top 5 wr pick in 2017? After a dominate 2016 season? Nope
It wouldn't surprise me one bit. Cooper checks all the boxes for me. Talent, athleticism, speed, routes, work ethic, character etc. His QB is talented and on the rise as well. I don't blame guys for not drafting ahead of guys like Hilton this year in redraft. You are taking a bit of a gamble that he improves off last years numbers pretty dramatically if you do that.Ilov80s said:Yes, it would surprise me quite a bit.
