What's his outlook for this game?

I think he is probably a strong play, especially in PPR. Coming off bye, no Graham, playing in a Dome in a must win game...

Thoughts?

Good play. A mid to low end WR2 in a 12 man league, but bigger upside than other guys in the same category (Fitz, Garcon, Hopkins, Randle, etc)

I would tend to agree, but the question is whether you have any better options to start. Who are your WR's/Flex?

Cooks is a solid PPR start every week. But he needs to score some TD's to reach the next level of FF workhorses.

Typical Cooks game. 8-9 catches probably 40-50 yards.

Cooks would be my WR2. My other options for me are either Michael Floyd (at Oak) or Garcon (vs Tenn)

he has 32 receptions in 5 games, and now Graham is out...pretty close to a must-start in 12 man PPR, imo

I would be okay with starting Cooks then, as a WR2 in your setup.

Garcon can score points, too, but I prefer Cooks in PPR.

I'm starting Cooks over Garçon this week in a PPR. I just feel PG will need a TD to be worth a start. Cooks can catch 9 balls IMO

i have Cooks, Beckham Jr, and Roddy White

only Marshall is a lock, idk which one to use, but Cooks should see an increase in targets. OBJ too, imho

Likelihood that Brees tosses constant checkdowns because of the pressure for PT?

I am debating between Cooks, Sankey, and Hillman as my flex in a PPR.

i'm probably going to roll with him. I wish it were a better matchup but sometimes a bad looking matchup ends up being a big piece of cake.

my other choices are Colston or Justin Hunter.

That looks like it could be a sketchy game between TEN/WASH.

you have to start 3 WR's in the league I'm talking about fwiw.
