BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR46
ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks has been a solid option for fantasy players since joining the team last year. Unfortunately, the veteran does have some up-and-down performances.
Last week, he had only two targets, catching both for 19 receiving yards and 2.6 half-point PPR fantasy points. However, Cooks was outstanding in Week 1, pulling in four of his seven targets for 40 receiving yards, a touchdown, and 12.5 fantasy points against the Cleveland Browns.
Dak to Brandin Cooks! First Cowboys TD of the year!

While he had a poor fantasy performance last week, fantasy players should start the veteran as a flex option in Week 3. The Cowboys take on the Baltimore Ravens in what should be an excellent game. Baltimore has surrendered 32.8 fantasy points per game to wide receivers over the first two weeks, the sixth-most in the NFL.
Cooks won’t have a 20-point performance. However, the veteran wide receiver should score double-digit fantasy points, even with Jake Ferguson returning from a knee injury.

BALLER MOVE: Consider in 14+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: QB2 ANALYSIS: The Cardinals prefer to lean on James Conner and the running game on offense.
