HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs Rams

Brandin Cooks is probably counting down until Tyrod Taylor returns to the starting lineup. Cooks has had less than 50 yards in three of the last four games and hasn't scored since Week 2. With Taylor possibly returning this week, Cooks' outlook does get brighter. For now, he's still a flex option, but certainly, be wary of who Houston goes with at quarterback. Oh yeah, and he'll see plenty of Jalen Ramsey.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Cardinals

Even when the offense as a whole goes down, Brandin Cooks finds a way to come through for his fantasy owners. Week 6 marked Cooks' third game this season with nine catches and double-digit targets. He has at least 78 yards in four games this season. He's the classic case of talent overcoming scheme and supporting cast. Cooks is a strong WR2 this week even against the Cardinals.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs Colts

It's a little odd to see Davis Mills throw three touchdown passes and not one of them went to Brandin Cooks. But that was the case against the Patriots. It was Chris Moore, Chris Conley and Antony Auclair finding the end zone. But Cooks did still see the second-most targets in that game and played the third-most snaps on offense. He's still fine and he faces what's still a bit of a banged-up Colts defense. With four teams on a bye this week, Cooks moves into WR2 territory.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 vs Patriots

Week 4 was easily Brandin Cooks' worst outing of the season. But to be fair, Buffalo's defense is really good and the entire Texans offense was shut down in Week 4. This week, he could see plenty of J.C. Jackson, and the Patriots currently boast the league's fourth-best passing defense. Cooks' talent will always give him upside, but he can only go so far with this offense. Consider him a WR3 for the week.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 at Bills

Anthony Miller and Jordan Akins have been doing fine for the Texans, but Brandin Cooks is keeping this offense afloat. Even with a rookie QB thrust into action, Cooks still saw 11 targets from Davis and posted his second 100-yard game of the season. Cooks is the only player on this offense you can absolutely trust in your lineups week in and week out.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs Panthers

It's Brandin Cooks and then everyone else in the wide receiver room in Houston. Case in point: Cooks saw 14 targets in Week 2. No other player had more than two. Through two weeks, Cooks has 21 targets. The next highest number is six. Cooks is the man in this offense and should continue to be force-fed targets, especially now that Davis Mills is getting the start.

HOU WR Brandin Cooks - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Browns

Brandin Cooks is well on his way to posting his sixth-career 1,000-yard season and he totaled 132 receiving yards in Week 1. He certainly is no Tyreek Hill, but wouldn't it be something if he could post even close to the numbers Hill did against the Browns in Week 1 (11/197/1)? Tyrod Taylor may have to force-feed Cooks the ball if Houston wants to hang in with the Browns in Week 2, so the upside is there as Flex or even a WR2.
