Did you learn your lesson? lol
To trust my gut over forums? Yep. But I possibly have screwed my team for years to come given my current WR situation and my leagues inactivity with most managers.

don't worry too much about it, you should still get a good player with the pick.

This is kind of what Amari Cooper does though. Last season he put up 173 yards in week 8 and then only eclipsed the 60 yard mark once the rest of the season.

that has been his calling card for a long time now, one great game and a bunch of duds hopefully he can work through that for you guys that own him.

Some of the drops on his record are balls that most other receives wouldn't have even been open for and would have required tremendous catches. He's amongst the elite all time in terms of yds and cathes to this point in a career. This stretch will be forgotten, he's quite talented. Gurley is probably the only other player that could go for 200 yds and receive so much flack from this community for it... if you sold low sorry about your luck.

Writing his drops off on him being too talented is comical. That's just plain denial. I like Cooper, but come on now.

Seriously. I only saw the first half last night but he did have a couple egregious drops. Right through his hands.

With so many targets you expect some drops .... The issue is wether Carr goes beck to him when it counts. Julian Edelman and Wes Welker had plenty of egregious drops, but Brady trusted both so the drops didn't matter to their fantasy value.

The one Cooper share I have is only still held due to his age and the fact you cannot be right about every player all the time .... However a decent offer in my inbox my tempt me to sell on this 'bump'.

The Bills used T White our stud rookie corner on him all game. Carr simply targeted Crabtree more.

I suppose thats been the problem the last 12 months? one great game 7 terrible? lol I like cooper though he be the next JJ/AJG but its looking less and lees like that.. maybe he turns it around and removes his head from his butt and actually catches balls that hit him in the hands..

Hey if 5 for 48 is "normal" again then that is an improvement over where things were a few weeks ago.

I will take 10 points in a PPR, it is the weeks like week 3-5 which are terrible.

You talk about it like 1 target more is significant..

Performances like this are what you should realistically expect from Cooper.
