From the episode
One guy that I'm not that excited to play this week is Omar Cooper Jr. I just want to put that out there right at the beginning. Okay. Just because Gino Smith's a great play doesn't necessarily mean Omar Cooper Jr. is a great play. I'd rather play Kendrick Bourne this week than Omar Cooper Jr... A wide receiver two going into this matchup coming off two good games, it's the ultimate setup. It's the ultimate setup for disappointment.
STACKED’s take
Positive signalRole
Cooper Jr. is a fade despite Geno's upside; WR2 volatility after two good weeks.
Matt Kelley is not excited to play Omar Cooper Jr. in Week 8 despite Geno Smith being a strong play. Cooper Jr. is a wide receiver two/three who had two good games in a row, but this is a classic setup for disappointment—a volatile WR2 coming off two strong performances into a good matchup. With Adnan Mitchell returning for his second game back and Breece Hall also back, the Jets' receiving targets are too crowded for Cooper Jr. to be reliable. He was the primary second option in two-receiver sets last week with higher route participation than Mitchell, but Mitchell is an outside target earner who will reclaim volume.
