Buffalo Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper caught one pass for three yards on two targets in the team's win over Seattle in Week 8. The veteran played more snaps than last week in his second game with the Bills but trailed Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir. Those receivers and tight end Dalton Kincaid were Josh Allen's primary targets. It's difficult for all fantasy-relevant players on the Buffalo offense to succeed at once, and there will be inconsistencies for Cooper and the rest of the wide receiver room. The game script also didn't help Cooper. The Bills held a 17-point lead in the third quarter. He'll be a WR2/3 next week against the Miami Dolphins.

Per Joe Person of The Athletic, it's only a matter of time before the Carolina Panthers trade wide receiver Diontae Johnson (rib). The 28-year-old is the most vied wideout on the market right now, and it appears he'll be shipped off to a contender before the Nov. 5 trade deadline. At this point, his most likely destinations are San Francisco, Tampa Bay, Washington, or "an AFC contender such as Los Angeles (Chargers) or Houston." It's an exciting development, as a move would instantly boost Johnson's fantasy value. With the deadline a week away, expect this situation to escalate quickly. We've already seen a few wideouts change hands over the last few weeks, and with the Panthers reeling at 1-7 -- the long-time Pittsburgh Steeler should be the next on the move. Fantasy managers who have held onto him may be handsomely rewarded in short order.
