Cooper Kupp fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 7 (2024). Our advice on whether you should start or sit Cooper Kupp for your fantasy lineups.
BALLER MOVE: Start if Kupp is cleared to play against the Las Vegas Raiders
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2/WR3
ANALYSIS: Cooper Kupp started hot in Week 1, finishing with 21 targets for 14 receptions, 110 yards, and one touchdown. He then went down in Week 2 against the Cardinals with an ankle injury and has been sidelined since.
The Los Angeles Rams are coming off their bye week at 1-4 and desperately need a spark. Injuries have slowed their season, and losing Kupp on top of wideout Puka Nacua has been too much to overcome.

It's pretty clear that Kupp and quarterback Matthew Stafford have a total mind-meld out there and Kupp hasn't shown any major signs of slowing down despite his recent run of bad injury luck.
We shouldn't expect the Kupp we saw in 2021 when he won the triple crown with 145 receptions for 1,947 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns, but he's still a very good player.
There's a chance that Kupp could be on a limited snap count in Week 7 and his status is still "to be determined" for the game, but there is plenty of upside for Kupp to shine.
Starting him in Week 7 will ultimately come down to your personal risk tolerance and other options at wide receiver.

Terrance Ferguson - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12 + Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: TE2/FLEX with upside ANALYSIS: The Los Angeles Rams passing attack will look quite different on Monday night when they face the New York Giants.

Rashod Bateman - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 14-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman is about to get a lot more targets, according to Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson. Bateman looked solid in training camp, though then again, so do players like WR Elijah Moore, and they end up not doing much in real games. […]
Quentin Johnston - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12 + Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Many fantasy managers, myself included (regrettably), expected new Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel to get wide receiver Quentin Johnston more involved on plays where he could utilize his skill set -- running after the catch -- better. That didn't happen in Week […]
Devaughn Vele - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Vele's performance in Week 1 was shocking. In the absence of WR Jordyn Tyson (hamstring), he served as the team's WR2, and caught seven of his nine targets for 69 yards and a touchdown, finishing with 19.9 PPR fantasy points. He played 91 percent […]
Deebo Samuel Sr. - Start or Sit?
BALLER MOVE: Start in 12-Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. was expected to play an ancillary role with his team when he was signed in the offseason.
