Amari Cooper or Russel Wilson?

[jeffoule]

In my small 9-team keeper league, we only keep 3 players. Right now I'm keeping Mike Evans and AJ Green.

My 3rd keeper is either Amari Cooper or Russell Wilson. Who should I keep?

Roster:
1 QB
2 RB
3 WR
1 FLEX
1 DEF
1 K
5 BENCH
2 IR

It's a 0.5 PPR league

Thanks!

Amari if it's between a WR and a QB.

think about the difference of Wilson vs the 9th QB. The difference between QB1 and QB9 is prolly 40pts. 40pts/15 weeks = 2.67pts/game.

Amari for me as well.

I would consider draft Amari in the 3rd round of a re-draft league. I would not consider drafting a QB in the 3rd round... not even Rodgers.

If you don't get Rodgers or Wilson in the draft... the 9th best QB you will still get Luck or Stafford or someone who is very reliable.

Hard not to keep a top-5 QB, but all this makes sense... thanks guys!

Yes it is..... but its all about 'Value Based Drafting' and there is more value in Amari Cooper over a replacement player WR then there is in Russel Wilson in comparison to a replacement player QB.

Top 5 QB in a 9 team league is just a top 50% player at the position.
