Amari Cooper (WR, OAK) - Fantasy Football Risers

The worry game was strong coming out of Week 1, with the fear being that the amazing rookie wide receiver crop from last year had skewed our expectations way too far.

Carson Palmer deserves a lot of love too, if he’s still sitting out there in your league you should probably go get him. Larry Fitzgerald is showing that he can still ball.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Coming off of his first 100-yard game in almost two years, Matthews is certainly seen as a hot commodity this week.
