Should I start Harold Fannin Jr. or Omar Cooper Jr. in Week 8?

Updated Oct 27, 9:11 AM ET.

There is no market projection on either of them this week and no snap on record this season, so this page cannot pick one yet. What follows is what each of them has done.

Their Week 8 outlook

The gap

  • Board size292 draftable players

Draft data is not current for these two, so the figures that depend on it are left out. The call above comes from each player's usage.

Where the draft room stands

Live drafts hold no current pick on Harold Fannin Jr., and the board ranks him 93rd overall on the rest of his evidence.

Live drafts hold no current pick on Omar Cooper Jr., and the board ranks him 94th overall on the rest of his evidence.

The market-based projections

The market has Harold Fannin Jr. at 2.3 PPR points a game off 1 market across 7 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a tight end's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

The market has Omar Cooper Jr. at 2.2 PPR points a game off 1 market across 6 market sources. That is 30 percent of what a wide receiver's projection needs, so it is a fragment of one rather than a projection.

Harold Fannin Jr.'s projection is not complete, so the two figures are not set against each other here.

This season through Week 7

Through Week 7, Harold Fannin Jr. has drawn 26 percent of the targets and had 0 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 3 of the offence's 9 third down targets, had 0 of its 1 chance inside the five and seen 2 of its 11 two minute targets.

His 9 targets have averaged 4.2 air yards.

In Week 7 against TEN he caught 6 of 9 targets for 91 yards and did not score.

Through Week 7, Omar Cooper Jr. has drawn 17 percent of the targets and had 8 percent of the red zone chances.

He has taken 2 of the offence's 9 third down targets and had 1 of its 3 chances inside the five.

His 5 targets have averaged 10.2 air yards.

In Week 7 against MIA he caught 5 of 5 targets for 115 yards and scored 1 touchdown.

Their 2025 seasons

In 2025 Harold Fannin Jr. played 16 games and scored 186.4 PPR points, 11.7 a game, finishing TE6.

He caught 72 of 107 targets for 731 yards and 6 touchdowns, with 10 red zone targets.

That came to 6.7 targets a game, a 67 percent catch rate and 10.2 yards a catch.

He was on the field for 76 percent of the snaps in the games he played.

Omar Cooper Jr. is a rookie, so there is no NFL season behind him to price him against.

Side by side

Harold Fannin Jr. is a tight end and Omar Cooper Jr. a wide receiver, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.

Byes and availability

Harold Fannin Jr. is off in Week 11 and Omar Cooper Jr. in Week 13, so either can cover the other's bye.
