Who Should I Start? Brandin Cooks or Elic Ayomanor

Wednesday, November 26, 12:45 AM

Former New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks signed with the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday and figures to immediately factor into the Bills' plan at wide receiver in some capacity. The Bills have been tinkering with their wide receivers on the roster over the past few weeks, trying to find the right combination on the field. They signed the former Buffalo Bill Gabe Davis back to the roster along with former Kansas City Chiefs wideout Mecole Hardman, but then he was placed on injured reserve with a calf injury. Second-year wideout Keon Coleman has served as a healthy inactive for the past two games for disciplinary reasons. Cooks will have an opportunity to make an impact, although it will take him some time to get up to speed. The veteran hasn't shown much in the past two seasons with the Saints and Cowboys, but he isn't too far removed from a solid 2023 season with the Cowboys, where he recorded 54 receptions for 657 yards and eight touchdowns on eight targets in 16 games. Cooks could be worth monitoring over the next few weeks to see how he is integrated into the offense.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has recorded only one reception in each of the past two games, but scored his first touchdown since Week 3 last week against the Cleveland Browns. The rookie fourth-rounder has maintained a near every-down role since the start of the season, playing 81.5% of the snaps in 12 games. Ayomanor has earned at least five targets in all but two games played this season, but it hasn't translated into much fantasy production in a poor Titans offense, averaging just 6.9 PPR points per game. The rookie wideout profiles as a deep league flex option in a favorable Week 15 matchup against a San Francisco 49ers defense that has allowed the eighth most passing yards per game this season.
