Summary

Brandin Cooks carries a 64.0 dynasty score, ranking 147 at WR. His 2025 receiving yards indicate a decline in production, and at 32 years old with one year remaining on his contract, his age trajectory is a concern.

Projection Rationale

Cooks’ 39.9 fantasy points in 2025 indicate a decline in production, with his efficiency grade at the 30th percentile suggesting he is not as effective as he once was. His contract situation, with one year remaining at an APY of $6,500,000, means his role security is uncertain.

Injury Risk

Cooks was out in Week 12 of the 2025 season due to a non-participation in practice. His durability grade at the 80th percentile suggests he has been relatively healthy, but at 32 years old, his injury risk profile is a concern.

Opportunity Notes

Cooks’ snap share trended down in 2025, with a low of 23.0% in Week 13. His role is uncertain, and there is competition for targets in the Saints’ receiving corps.

Scheme Fit Analysis

Sean Payton coordinates a pass-heavy offense with a 65.0% pass rate, which should help Cooks’ production. However, his efficiency grade at the 30th percentile suggests he may not be as effective in this scheme.

Trend Assessment

Declining. Cooks’ declining trend is evident in his 2025 season stats, with a 64.0 dynasty score and 44th percentile production grade indicating a decrease in production.

Ceiling / Floor

Cooks’ ceiling is WR4-WR5, requiring him to increase his production and efficiency. His floor is WR6-WR7, with a trade value of 4,576 and a dynasty score of 64.0 indicating a lower tier finish range.
