WR Brandin Cooks, NO (1 Viewer)

I've held him all year but it's a 16-team league with a free agent pool picked clean. I think I started him Week 2 because of injuries, but really haven't considered him in weeks. Definitely not what I hoped for on draft night.

Yeah, it's weird, Cooks has usually fit in pretty quickly whenever he's started with a new team. He's way too talented to be used like Michael Gallup.
 
what a waste - hes a very good player who has put up very nice numbers in awful offenses. He finally gets to a great offense and he is not used. Coaches should wake up and involve him more. Could be a great compliment to Lamb
 
Yeah, its a head-scratcher. A capable WR goes to a good offense that has just lost a receiving TE and has no clear WR2 but can't establish himself in that role.
 
Breakout game was imminent - the guy should clearly be the #2 and feast when Lamb is double teamed. Question is will they continue to use him like last game or the 1st several. Im betting on a strong finish.

The connection between Dak Prescott and Brandin Cooks, particularly in 7-on-7 drills, stood out during the Cowboys’ OTAs yesterday.

Cooks: “Having a season under my belt with Dak, I started slow the first half (last) season, but picked it up. … I’m ready to rock. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a leader, but at the same time, I’m a playmaker. My mindset, I just look forward to get this season going and hitting that stride like I know I’m capable of.

“I’m gonna go out there and make a lot more plays than I did last year.”

Would kill for this guy to be a good, reliable WR3 this season. Certainly not a lot of competition for targets in Dallas.

Ok… but I guess I was expecting more of a “lost step/ reduced performance” year and more of an upgrade in 3rd rnd pick Jalen Tolbert seeing more targets & growth!

Seems to have been on the injury and limited practice list off and on the last two weeks with knee issues. Anyone know anything about how he's looking? Haven't heard much and not sure if he's worth holding through week 1 or using the roster space for a different lottery ticket.

If you’ve got a bench spot in deeper dynasties, Ryan Flournoy may be worth a stash, or at least someone to keep on your radar.
 
Brandin Cooks should be returning week 10. Anything to see here?

Might be worth a free stash in redraft in case he’s featured after he comes back. The cowboys passing schedule gets easier from here on out, and their running game is dead. People are down on Dak, but he’s going to be the king of garbage time RoS and has to throw it to someone besides Cee Dee.

The team was playing much better when they had another option. At least on offense. D still sucks. Need best 3 players on D to come off of IR before it is too late. Or is it too late already ?
 
Anyone desperately rolling the dice on Cooks vs the Bengals horrible defense? I’ve somehow found myself considering it.

Bengals will probably put up some points, Dallas will have to throw. Lamb will get Cincy’s best coverage plus he’s nursing the shoulder. A fresh-legged Cooks could still have a 100/2 game in him…right?

I’m starting all Cowboys across my leagues. Between injuries and the week 14 6 team BYE craziness don’t have a ton of choice. Here’s hoping for a high scoring affair
 
No 1 WR in Dallas today vs the Eagles?

Nobody is talking about him but for that last Flex spot where you could go RB or WR, where will you find something on waivers with any kind of upside today?
Easy 10-15 in PPR is my guess, especially if Dallas falls behind which I think the Cowboys might actually win
