Now that free agency, the NFL Draft, and the schedule release have all passed, we have our initial layout in place in team depth charts and strength of schedule. With that, we want to take a look at some players across the fantasy landscape that are either polarizing, over or undervalued, or just interesting topics of discussion and walk through some pros and cons on where those players are regarded in fantasy circles.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

So far we have explored players such as <\/span>Kenyan Drake<\/b><\/a>, <\/b>Austin Ekeler<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Marquise Brown<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Tyler Higbee<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Mecole Hardman<\/b><\/a>,<\/b> Nick Chubb<\/b><\/a>, <\/b>the trio of<\/span> DeVante Parker, Preston Williams <\/b>and <\/span>Mike Gesicki<\/b><\/a> , <\/span>D.J. Chark<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Odell Beckham<\/b><\/a>, <\/span>Aaron Jones<\/b><\/a>,\u00a0 <\/span>Leonard Fournette<\/b><\/a>, and <\/span>Amari Cooper<\/b><\/a>. For this installment, we are taking a dive into fantasy prospects and current market for <\/span>Cooper Kupp.<\/b>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Using the Dynasty ADP app available at <\/span>RotoViz<\/span><\/a>,\u00a0 Kupp has continued to rise over the course of his rookie contract. As it stands this offseason, Kupp is being selected as a top-40 option overall and a top-20 wide receiver.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Since entering the league in 2017, only 15 wide receivers have scored more total PPR points that Kupp has while he ranks as the WR15 in points per game (14.9 points) over that span. Improving his fantasy output each season, Kupp has checked in as the WR28, WR14, and the WR7 in points per game over his first three seasons in the NFL. The seventh wide receiver selected in the 2017 NFL Draft, Kupp has only been outscored by <\/span>JuJu Smith-Schuster<\/b> over his first three seasons from that draft class.<\/span><\/p>\n

In 2020, Kupp set career-highs across the board in targets (134), receptions (94), receiving yards (1,161), and receiving touchdowns (10). Not only was that season good for the WR4 in overall scoring output, but Kupp was also able to accomplish that after suffering a torn ACL the season prior, Week 10 in mid-November. <\/span>Players returning from an ACL injury typically see a reduction in prior season output<\/span><\/a>, even with a full year of recovery. It should not be understated how impressive it was for Kupp not only to be ready for Week 1 of last season, but to also hit the ground running with the best output of his career.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
