Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Brandin Cooks

Saturday, November 22, 12:01 PM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has yet to capitalize on any injuries to the pass-catchers despite seeing an uptick in targets over the last two weeks. He's turned 8 targets in two games into three catches for 27 yards and no touchdowns. He hasn't even finished in the top 50 at the position since the first two weeks of the season. The New York Jets present an easier matchup as the 23rd ranked unit against receivers over the last four weeks, but Hopkins remains around a third option at best. He's projected as the WR64 which leaves him on the waiver wire in almost all fantasy leagues.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Brandin Cooks was waived by the organization on Saturday. The two sides mutually agreed to part ways earlier this week, but the move is official now. The veteran wideout is now a free agent and could draw some interest from teams in playoff contention. Through 10 games, Cooks hauled in 19 of his 25 targets for 165 receiving yards with zero touchdowns this season. The 32-year-old hasn't contributed much the last few seasons, but could still help as a depth option on a playoff team. The departure of Cooks could mean more playing time for Devaughn Vele and Mason Tipton.
