Studs

Cooper Kupp is by far the most expensive player on DraftKings, though he trails his quarterback on FanDuel. Kupp has the highest Median Projection on DraftKings for this one, for obvious reasons. Kupp has been dominant this year, scoring more DraftKings points than any player outside of Jonathon Taylor. He trails Taylor by one point with one less game played.

Kupp is also game script independent, seeing at least 10 targets in all but one game this year – where he had nine. That makes it hard to avoid Kupp no matter what game outcome you’re building around. If the Rams get off to a big lead, it’s likely because Kupp was productive. If the Rams are behind or the game is close, they’ll keep throwing to Kupp.
