Start Amari Cooper in a Game With a High Over/Under

The Oakland Raiders are favored by 3.5 points versus the Indianapolis Colts. What's intriguing about this matchup is the sky-high over/under of 53 points. This total should bode well for many offensive players on either team, but we are going to focus on Raiders wide receiver Amari Cooper.

Cooper has never played in a game with this high of a total. If we split his games in half from 2016, in any game played with a total of 48 or higher, Cooper averaged 14.13 half-PPR points per game. In games played with a total of less than 48, he has averaged only 9.43 half-PPR points per game.

Raiders games have eclipsed the over in 10 out of 14 games, tied for the third-best rate in the NFL.

Cooper is a solid cash-game and tournament play because of his high upside and seemingly safe floor. He is currently priced at $7,200 on FanDuel, which ranks ninth among wideouts.
