| Brandon Funston The Athletic | Elite big-play threat tied to one of top arm talents in the NFL - 7 games with 80+ receiving yards was 5th-most in 2021 | His stock rises and falls on the tide of the Deshaun Watson off-field drama |
| Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | Return to LAC on a HUGE deal is big for MWilly - prob will never regain that early 2021 magic (top-5 WR in fantasy), but being No.2 option for one of the game's best young QBs is still a good place to be | *UPDATEx 3 (6/8) - Liklihood of major DW Suspension coming, potentially for full year. Cooper takes a huge hit with dramatic drop in QB play & likely huge schematic shifts |
| Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | Mike Williams had the opportunity to take his talents elsewhere this offseason in free agency, but decided to stay in Los Angeles with quarterback Justin Herbert. Hard to argue with the choice to sign a three-year deal worth $60M attached to a young superstar quarterback, especially when that quarterback fueled a career-year. He stormed out the gate in 2021 as the WR2 in fantasy through the first five weeks of the season, averaging 94.2 receiving yards and 1.2 receiving touchdowns per game. Big Mike finished the season as the WR23 in fantasy points per game despite cooling off considerably in the later weeks in addition to leaving a boatload of touchdown production on the table. He finished sixth in end-zone targets (16) but caught only five for touchdowns. With positive TD regression on his side, Williams looks like a sneaky candidate to repeat his WR12 overall finish in the half-point scoring format. | Amari Cooper finished last season 27th in half-PPR per game (11.2), which was in line with his career average. There is hope that he can provide a higher floor as the clear No. 1 wide receiver in Cleveland. And that floor will be accompanied by an extremely high ceiling with Deshaun Watson entrenched under center. The ex-Texans quarterback fueled top fantasy WR finishes for the likes of Brandin Cooks (WR16, 2020) and Will Fuller (WR8/game, 2020) the last time he played. And prior to that, he supplemented DeAndre Hopkins as the fantasy WR4 and WR10 from 2018-2019. |
| Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Cooper had only 97 targets, 63 receptions, 786 yards, and eight touchdowns in the fantasy season. Cooper is now a Brown and while he will do well catching balls from Deshaun Watson, he also is going to be playing in an offense that runs the ball a ton. | |
