Who Should I Start? Amari Cooper or Baker Mayfield

Sunday, December 22, 10:55 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper caught one pass for 10 yards in the team's 24-21 win over the New England Patriots. The veteran secured his lone reception in the second quarter and was only targeted once more. As has been the case for most of his stint in Buffalo, Cooper was largely uninvolved in the offensive game plan. He has two games with double-digit PPR points in seven tries. Cooper can't be trusted in starting lineups when the Bills host the New York Jets next weekend.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield completed 31 of 43 pass attempts for 303 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He also took four sacks and rushed for 42 yards. Finally, Mayfield fumbled once, but he was able to pick up the loose ball. All in all, Mayfield had a solid showing, but it wasn't enough to propel Tampa Bay over Dallas. The 29-year-old ranks as a top-six fantasy quarterback this season with his 3,920 yards, 37 total touchdowns, and 15 interceptions. Fantasy managers should view him as a top option among quarterbacks when he takes on a subpar Carolina Panthers defense in Week 17, coinciding with most fantasy leagues' championships.
