00:00All right, Joe Pizzapia, author of the Fantasy Black Book, weigh in on one of the top five

00:08conversations for the upcoming fantasy season.

00:12Cooper Cupp, your thoughts?

00:14The ultimate boomer bust, right?

00:1631 years old, a guy that has broken fantasy before and a guy that's been broken and broken

00:22your dreams in fantasy before.

00:24So this is a tough one for me.

00:26If you're in a league that's playing for a large prize, let's just put it that way,

00:31perhaps I fade Cooper Cupp just a little bit.

00:34If you're playing for fun, sure, let's give Cooper Cupp another turn around the sun and

00:38see what happens.

00:39Reports have been good so far, that's encouraging, but he has missed significant time in the

00:44last two seasons.

00:45And he is 31 years old with a lot of tread on the tires.

00:48And before his enormous 2,000 yard season, let's not forget, Cooper Cupp did have some

00:52injury issues as well.

00:54I think with Cooper Cupp, the best way I can put it is this, if I can draft him as

00:58my third wide receiver, man, that's a fantastic league winning opportunity.

01:03And if he misses time, it doesn't hurt me.

01:05But right now he's being drafted more as a wide receiver to range.

01:09That could hurt me potentially in my draft.

01:10So for me, who starts out early wide receiver, there's a better chance that I could go three

01:16wide outs to start my draft or three of the first four picks, depending on where I am.

01:20And if so, Cooper Cupp is my third in the fourth round, man, that would be a great pick

01:24there.

01:25But to take him as my number two, I still have my doubts potentially about him being

01:29there on a weekly basis.

01:31So again, the ultimate boom or bust, but it depends on your situation and your tolerance.

01:36In a 10 team league, far more apt to take Cooper Cupp as well.

01:40Why?

01:41Because the replacement value is easier and it's so much better in terms of the depth

01:46and the supply and demand of the position, right?

01:49If we're in a league, we're only playing two wide receivers, right?

01:51Cooper Cupp's on there too.

01:53That's okay.

01:54I got all these other flex spots.

01:55I've got more replacement value.

01:56It's okay.
