He already had good target share. My initial thought is this offense is going to go a bit further in the tank. Cooks is the only threat on offense aside from Watson's legs? How can Watson keep overcoming losses? It's possible, but we'll see. Link to post Share on other sites

It's possible, but we'll see. a part of me would rather Cooks as the #2 option - he still got the targets, as you mentioned. Wait and see approach now I guess - from the Det game, they can't rely on the running game. Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Mick 138 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I think this is a positive for Cooks. The overall offense will be less effective but he should see a substantial growth in touchdowns. Link to post Share on other sites

SuperMarksBros. 184 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 [...] Matchups coming up are tough but he'll double digit targets and Watson's escapability will give him time to get open, and hopefully behind the defense. Any one big play will make his week. Link to post Share on other sites
fantasymad 377 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Should bump up his targets. Was already in WR2 territory. Think he benefitted from Fuller on other side? Production up or down? Link to post Share on other sites

fantasymad 377 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Colts and Bengals secondary don't scare me in weeks 15 and 16. Both are middle of the pack in fantasy pts allowed to WR. 2 home games too giddy up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
FreakFries 1,398 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 As far as drawing attention away from Cooks, I seem to remember KeKe (sp) having a pretty promising rookie year but then disappeared and was almost cut. Disappearing and almost being cut isn’t a good sign but on the other hand he’s had success and chemistry with Watson before. Also, seems like they wouldn’t have let Still go unless they had some confidence in KeKe? Link to post Share on other sites

gmoneypm 62 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) Do you think he goes off in a divisional game against Indy this weekend? With Fuller suspended and Cooks running routes all over the field this season, its safe to assume that his target share will go up right? (it dipped the last two weeks with only 5 targets in each game) My only concern is that Cooks has never been a true alpha #1 in any offense he's played. He's also not the most physically imposing WR in the game being only 5'10" Obviously I'm stoked to have him as a flex option, just very curiously optimistic of what's to come.

King Gonzo 147 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I think at worst he produces the same as he has been. Maybe more volume but less scoring opportunities. I am optimistic about him doing even better though. Link to post Share on other sites

Pooskay 807 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Perhaps he'll get a few more TD's here and there, but I don't see his yardage getting a bump. Teams will just focus more on Cooks, and the deep ball is where he gets most of his yardage. Having Fuller helped because it kept teams guessing where Watson would go with the deep passes.

Not true, he’s been used mostly in short and intermediate routes with the Texans... Fuller was their deeper threat. Cooks’ ADOT this season has only been 9.67 yards, which is not even in the Top 100 in the NFL. Fuller’s was 12.19 yards this year until the suspension, so it’s clear he was running the deeper route tree. FWIW, in his limited targets, Stills was even higher at 12.53. Now, with Fuller out, I’m expecting Cooks to run some of those deeper routes, with Coutee taking some of the underneath stuff. We’ll see how that affects his production, we know that type of usage is in his wheelhouse. Link to post Share on other sites
nine9s 84 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) Coulter could be a 1:1 fill-in for Fuller. He seems to be a good long ball receiver - just from small school but had praise during camp. Edited December 4, 2020 by nine9s 1 Link to post Share on other sites
