Keon Coleman Faces Uphill Climb for Week 1 Value

Saturday, September 12, 7:38 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman enters his third season looking to rebound after catching 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns across 13 games in 2025. His path to a larger role became more complicated when Buffalo added DJ Moore, who joins Khalil Shakir and Dalton Kincaid among Josh Allen's top options. Coleman also draws a difficult opening matchup against a Houston defense that allowed only 20 passing touchdowns and intercepted 19 passes last season. RotoBaller has him at WR97 for Week 1, well outside the normal FLEX range. Coleman still has touchdown upside, but there is not enough projected volume to trust him in standard lineups Sunday. He is best left on the bench while Buffalo's target distribution takes shape.

Omar Cooper Jr. Finishes Training Camp on a High Note

Thursday, September 10, 7:00 PM

22-year-old rookie out of Indiana, Omar Cooper Jr, wrapped up training camp on a high note, putting together crucial highlight plays and showing his yards-after-catch ability that made him a top prospect out of college and earned him the 30th overall draft pick by the New York Jets. Reports from camp were initially slow for Cooper as he was getting acclimated to the NFL. His situation is worth monitoring, as he has the high draft capital that makes him an interesting asset that should be taken seriously. Cooper posted 69 receptions, 937 receiving yards, and 13 touchdowns in his final season with Indiana and is currently listed as the Jets' third wide receiver, ahead of Tim Patrick and Arian Smith. RotoBaller ranks him as the WR88 for Week 1, making him more of a bench stash based on his potential upside.
