Amari Cooper survives P.J. Walker

Amari Cooper Headshot

Browns QB P.J. Walker mustered just 192 scoreless yards in the Week 6 win over the 49ers. That didn't stop WR Amari Cooper from having a nice fantasy day. He caught four of his team-high eight targets for 108 yards. His receptions went for 11, 58, 26, and 13 yards. Cooper fumbled after his first catch but later atoned for that mistake with a sweet contested catch over CB Charvarius Ward. Despite Cleveland's QB issues, Cooper has now tallied 90+ yards in three of his last four games. He's drawn a solid 22.7% target share and is averaging 9.4 yards per target. Cooper would obviously benefit from a healthy Deshaun Watson, although that could still be weeks away. The good news: Cooper gets plus matchups the next three weeks vs. the Colts, Seahawks, and Cardinals.
