  Brandin Cooks

  Houston Texans

  Brandin Cooks 2021 Fantasy Outlook

  Per RotoGrinders NFL player projections, Brandin Cooks is expected to be the fantasy WR34. He’s being drafted as WR45 at pick 90 (Underdog) on average, compared to his RotoGrinders ranking of 66 as of mid July. We currently expect a 22% target share which amounts to a projection of 126 targets (Rank 28) and 930 receiving yards (Rank 30) during the 17 week fantasy season.

  The Texans are a dumpster fire without Deshaun Watson, and that directly impacts our opinion of Cooks. They are likely to be without their embattled superstar QB, and thus Cooks is expected to perform significantly worse than a season ago. Most drafters are even lower on Cooks than the RotoGrinders projections, with his ADP lagging behind our ranking by ay least 10 receivers. He’s a player with a 1,000 yard season on his resume with 4 different primary QBs, and our projections would have him within range of a 5th. If you wanted to bet purely on talent, Cooks could be a modest value in the middle rounds of drafts.

  Sammy Watkins

  Baltimore Ravens

  Sammy Watkins is active today

  Sammy Watkins is active today and will play for the first time since Week 16. Watkins brings yet another weapon to the loaded Chiefs’ offense. He has had a consistent but somewhat limited role in the offense when active this season, averaging 42 yards per game with 2 TDs over 10 games.

  Antonio Brown

  Tampa Bay Buccaneers

  Antonio Brown, Cameron Brate and Sammy Watkins all reportedly expected to play in Super Bowl

  Brown, Brate and Watkins, all listed as questionable, are reportedly expected to play in the Super Bowl. It appears that both teams will be healthy Sunday, not surprising given the extra week of rest. It will still be worth monitoring inactives tomorrow, which will be released 90 minutes before kickoff.

  Gabriel Davis

  Buffalo Bills

  Gabriel Davis will try warming up pregame, but there is a good chance he is out today

  Gabriel Davis will try warming up pregame, but there is a good chance he is out today. Kenny Stills was called up from the practice squad yesterday, and has reportedly gotten a lot of Davis’ work this week in practice. If Davis is ruled out, expect Stills to get some work, his first work with the Bills this season.

  Sammy Watkins

  Baltimore Ravens

  Sammy Watkins still a game-time decision, but Chiefs reportedly not optimistic he will play

  Sammy Watkins is still a game-time decision, but the Chiefs are reportedly not optimistic he will play. Both Ian Rapoport and Adam Schefter have now mentioned the lack of optimism, so it sounds like Watkins is closer to doubtful than questionable for today. That would be a boost to the WRs behind Tyreek Hill, specifically Mecole Hardman, Demarcus Robinson and Byron Pringle.

  Clyde Edwards-Helaire

  Kansas City Chiefs

  Clyde Edwards-Helaire reportedly will play today, while Le'Veon Bell is expected to be out. Sammy Watkins is a game-time decision

  Clyde Edwards-Helaire reportedly will play today, while Le’Veon Bell is expected to be out. That should mean Darrel Williams, who worked effectively last week as the top back, should get some of the RB work along with the returning Edwards-Helaire. Sammy Watkins is a game-time decision, although Adam Schefter also reported that the Chiefs aren’t optimistic he will play. Ian Rapoport did not report that, and for now, he should still be considered a GTD, but his status must be confirmed when inactives are released.

  Kenny Stills

  Buffalo Bills

  Kenny Stills elevated by Bills to active roster from practice squad

  Kenny Stills has been elevated by the Bills to their active roster from the practice squad. While Stills could still end up inactive tomorrow, this elevation acts as insurance for the Bills in case Gabriel Davis is not able to play.

  Kansas City Chiefs

  Clyde Edwards-Helaire officially inactive today

  Clyde Edwards-Helaire is officially inactive today, as expected based on earlier reports. Le’Veon Bell and Darrel Williams are likely to split the work, with Darwin Thompson the third RB. Williams got more work Week 16, the last game the Chiefs’ starters played, while Bell got more work back in Week 13, the other game that Clyde Edwards-Helaire missed.
