Brandin Cooks a Boom/Bust Dart Throw Going into Divisional Round

Friday, January 16, 11:30 PM

Buffalo Bills veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks was traded from the New Orleans Saints to Buffalo late in the 2025 season. In his five regular-season games with the Bills, Cooks caught five of 11 targets for 114 yards. The 32-year-old deep threat has seven receptions on 11 targets for 159 yards in the last two games against the Eagles and Jaguars, though. He caught three of five targets for 58 yards in the Wild-Card win over the Jaguars, with most of his yardage coming on a 36-yard pickup. Cooks relies on chunk gains deep down the field, which could be a problem against a solid Denver Broncos' defense in the Divisional Round on Saturday. The Bills will need Cooks to step up, though, with both Gabe Davis (knee) and Tyrell Shavers (knee) out with torn ACLs. Denver's defense gave up the fifth-fewest half-PPR points per game to WRs during the regular season and tied with the Eagles for the fewest TDs allowed at six.

Romeo Doubs News

Romeo Doubs Offers Dynasty Upside Even as the No. 2 Receiver

Friday, May 29, 7:52 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Romeo Doubs could face some competition soon. The Patriots' plan to acquire A.J. Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles is the worst-kept secret in football, and a deal is expected to come together in the month of June. When that happens, Doubs' role will shrink, but we still expect him to remain a fantasy-relevant option for years to come. Drake Maye took a huge step in Year 2, but he was missing a true No. 2 receiver. Doubs will fill that role behind Brown, and the Patriots' offense is successful enough to support two fantasy-relevant wide receivers. Doubs may not be Maye's first read all the time, but he'll also benefit from Brown pulling away opposing teams' No. 1 cornerbacks. All in all, we're not too worried about the Brown trade, and we still think that Doubs, who is signed through 2029, can be a top-36 fantasy receiver for several years to come. At the moment, he ranks as the WR58 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty rankings.
