Amari Cooper - trust him, potential value pick?

Recommended Posts

just read he is weighing in at 225lbs

 

crabtree gone, but nelson is there.. Cook doesnt ever really come to play.. and they dont seem to throw very much to the RBs..

 

thoughts?

His Yahoo ADP is in the 4th round. That's nowhere near a value imo. If his ADP was in the 7th or 8th round maybe.

Sometimes it takes a WR a couple of seasons or so to excel in the NFL.

He's been touted as a potential stud until this season.

He's not a break out candidate to pick up in the 4th round or so.

If he doesn't break out he should be on par with WRs in that range.

He’s not worthy of a 4th round pick.

 

He might end up being the third highest scoring wr on the Raiders.

 

D Martin will be the rb1, and he also take work away from the Cooper in the passing game.

 

He hasn’t shown me any reason that he’s worth a 4th round pick, and I don’t care if he might be the slot wr, he still needs too actually catch the ball first.

In 7 out of 9 seasons a team under Gruden his WR1 has had 130+ targets. Thats a lot of targets in the 4th round

I will take a chance on him depending on the price. I'm in an auction league but I think I would take him in the 5th of a redraft if available. I think Gruden will be good for Cooper and he obviously believes in his talent.

If hes got gas left in the tank jordy is the guy to own here

I've been going back and forth on Cooper for what seems like forever now.

I really think this is the correct play with this offense.

No doubt. After getting 130 and 130 his first 2 seasons he plummeted to 96 targets last year.

 

Get him healthy and back in the that range and he will produce in PPR

Last summer I was 'selling' Cooper. Sold him for AJ Green in a dynasty because I didn't think he was quite the true elite WR 1 and was soft at the catch point.

 

 

I'll be buying that his production swings back. The problem is that his price hasn't really dropped much.

It's like a crashing stock price--if you love his value now, you'll love it even more with another terrible week. If you wait until Week 16, you can get him for a cup of coffee.

Any new thoughts on Cooper as a buy low after his game vs Denver last Sunday?

No one is selling low anymore after the game he had. The week 1 panic sale is over.

10 catches averaging basically 10 ypc. That's pretty sad. I wouldn't trust this.

 

Honestly...I wouldn't. I'd take the points, but the way that offense looks, and Amari's rep. I'll just say I'm glad I have no stock in him.

Or they are scheming ways to get him the ball if you are a glass is half full kind of guy.

I think Xavien Howard is a legit shutdown corner. He gets cooper. Wait one more week then pounce

Possible. History will say that's not going to be the case. The offense isn't going anywhere if their top receiver is going to have 10 catches a game for 110 yards while everyone else gets scraps

I don't know that there is any historical presedence. As a Cooper owner I'd just take the 1669 yards and 161 catch season.
