Run it Back With Amari Cooper

Amari Cooper has had one of the most enigmatic starts to the year. He has two games with more than 110 receiving yards and two games less than 20 receiving yards. Until he becomes the dominant receiver everyone is waiting for, he'll always be a risky play. But the Raiders-Chargers over/under has already risen to 53.5 points, and in games with totals over 50, Cooper's targets increase slightly by 1.4, he averages 11.6 more receiving yards, and his overall fantasy output goes up by 1.8 points per game.

His $6,500 cost is at a season-low despite a good Week 4, and he's a top-10 value among receivers under $7,000. Cooper offers sneaky upside at a reasonable cost in Week 5.
