BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Brandin Cooks has found the fountain of youth and is playing like he's back in his prime. He started the season in a very lowkey manner, but since Week 10, he has recorded 332 yards on 20 catches and scored three touchdowns.
You can easily see his transformation in his fantasy output. Before Week 10, Brandin Cooks was the WR72, averaging just 6.8 PPR points per game. But since then, he has been the WR9, averaging 18.3 PPR points per game.

The Cowboys are on a four-game winning streak and have gone 6-1 since Week 6, but they'll have to face the only team that beat them in that stretch, the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles had the best passing defense in the league last year but they have somehow fallen to 29th this year.
They have also given up a ridiculous 47.7 PPR points to wideouts this season, which is by far the highest mark in the NFL. With their run defense still being dominant, Dak Prescott will have to throw a lot in this game, which makes Cooks a solid WR3 in this matchup.
