I don't know. I think I'll take the guy that's virtually free on the crummy offense.last week it was WR Golladay that was huge monster next Calvin
this week based on a pre-season game its Cooper Kupp
next week it'll be Taje Sharpe WR TEN ....... oh wait, that was LAST years preseason sensation.
I like Kupp fine, I like quite a few other rookies better, and Goff and the Rams aint going to be a 5500 yards passing, 35 TD team methinks.
The FF shark play is Watkins right now - silent in pre-season games, a been there, done that WR.
Done what? Get hurt every year? You can't compare Kupp to Galladay, apples to oranges. I like Kupp much more for dynasty rather than redraft and I think it's so difficult for a rookie wr to make an impact in year one but my eyes tell me Kupp has the best chance of the two to be an impact player.last week it was WR Golladay that was huge monster next Calvin

This seems to be his shtick - go into a dynasty based thread on young WRs and act as if everyone is talking about the guy having a huge season in year one and taking him early in redrafts.I don't know. I think I'll take the guy that's virtually free on the crummy offense.
And a lot of us are talking dynasty in here. I agree redraft could be dicey.

Sharpe did get a lot of buzz last year but not as much as Michael Thomas if you want to play that game.last week it was WR Golladay that was huge monster next Calvin

He has a slight groin injury so he didn't play.Did Kupp play against the Chargers this weekend? I can't find any news or stats on him from this weekend.
Kind of happy he didn't. Keeps him under the radar that much more for upcoming drafts.He has a slight groin injury so he didn't play.
And shows they want him 100% healthy/rested for the regular seasonKind of happy he didn't. Keeps him under the radar that much more for upcoming drafts.
Cooper Kupp is listed behind Robert Woods on the Rams' Week 1 depth chart.
Kupp suffered a groin injury late in the preseason, so his Week 1 health is uncertain. We'll get our first update with Wednesday's injury report. Kupp seemed to be both coach Sean McVay and Jared Goff's preferred target underneath this summer, though Woods is a $10 million guaranteed free agent. There will be targets there for the taking, but perhaps Kupp still has to "earn" them on the regular season field.

Damn. Wasn't going to start him week 1 anyways, but was hoping he'd get off to a strong start and didn't know he was injured.Cooper Kupp is listed behind Robert Woods on the Rams' Week 1 depth chart.

Such a nice route, goff loves him, it's gonna be a fun yearImagine that.
He was my 16th rounder. Nice debut, matches what we've seen/heard all summer.He's probably first in line to be dropped for me but I'll give it a few weeks if possible.
Yep. Pleasant surprise. Hopefully it continues.BobbyLayne said:He was my 16th rounder. Nice debut, matches what we've seen/heard all summer.
Why are you doing that?I'm actually starting him over Sammy this week. What a dream realized owning 2 Rams receivers.
I like Kupp a lot but he's really not even close to being as fast or athletic as Jordy Nelson. He's much more of a possession receiver.I think there is a good bond there with Goff already ......... I could see Kupp being Jordy Nelson 2.0
yeah but they're both white.I like Kupp a lot but he's really not even close to being as fast or athletic as Jordy Nelson. He's much more of a possession receiver.
Ah I suppose Norman something to consider.The Josh Norman shadow talk for one. But honestly, at this point does Watkins really have more upside than Kupp game to game in PPR?
I get what you're saying, but... Not to compare Odell to Sammy, but you get what I'm saying? It's not like Norman is Rod Woodson reincarnated.Ah I suppose Norman something to consider.
I think Watkins has a lot more talent and upside than Kupp yes.
So you might say Hilton has to play with a sub par QB, what exactly do you call the Rams QB? Goff's had one good game in his career and a bunch of terrible ones. Banking on what might be his third option is a heavy risk.Going with my gut and starting him over TY this week.
I think it's a lot closer than you might think it is. 40 times aren't drastically different. Cupp was a hell of an athlete in HS in hoops and football. He's more than a possession receive, IMO.I like Kupp a lot but he's really not even close to being as fast or athletic as Jordy Nelson. He's much more of a possession receiver.
Start 2 WR? Cause from where I'm sitting Kupp's your third.Sitting him but only because Im loaded at WR (Evans, Diggs, Adams, Hilton, Landry, Hogan, Kupp)....
Does Wash play man or zone? If man, they'd be crazy not to have Norman shadow Watkins. Kupp is good, and has the eye of Goff, but Watkins can juke a lesser CB out of his cleats and take it to the house.Ah I suppose Norman something to consider.
I think Watkins has a lot more talent and upside than Kupp yes.
Ballsy. Crabtree is a must start every week for me, regardless of opponent. He's too consistent and too good at contested catches and has a knack for the endzone - all of which makes him one of the best WR2s in FF.I'm starting him over Crabtree because I like to gamble. Oak shouldnt need to throw much vs Jets. Went RB heavy this year Coop and Golliday were my lotto tix.
