From the article
Cooper is a desperation flex that could pay off this week.
STACKED’s take
Cooper's elite two-high efficiency makes him a desperation flex with upside.
Darius Cooper finished as WR13 last week with two touchdowns on 25.9% target share, 33 receiving yards (1.18 YPRR), and 27.8% first-read share with three red zone targets and two deep targets. The source notes some of his high-volume usage could be related to Dontayvion Wicks dealing with Trent McDuffie for more than half the game; Cooper only faced McDuffie for 25% of his routes. Against Jacksonville's two-high coverage (56.7-56.9% in three of four games), Cooper has a massive 28% target-per-route run rate with 1.44 YPRR in limited playing time. Jacksonville has allowed only one receiving touchdown to perimeter wide receivers while surrendering tenth-most yards per target. The source rates him as a desperation flex with upside.
