Cooper Kupp (LAR-WR) $2/3y
Kupp is one of the top wide receivers in all of football, coming back stronger after his dual leg injuries last year (Before which time he was on pace to finish as a top-5 WR), as evidenced by the fact that he has been running 2 mph faster than before his injury last year, per the chip placed in NFL shoulder pads this year. But, if you still don't believe that he's one of the very best WRs in the NFL, see below:

But, if you still don't believe that he's one of the very best WRs in the NFL, see below:
- Kupp is college football's all-time leading receiver
- Kupp is Fantasy Football's #3 receiver in 2019, behind only Chris Godwin and Amari Cooper, with 19.08 PPG
- Kupp is the 11th highest-graded WR in football per PFF, with a grade of 81.3
- He averaged 14.41 PPG in 2018, good for 12th among all WRs (Keeping in mind, he missed large parts of the two games that suffered the knee injuries in, scoring only 1.2, and 6.4 points in those weeks. For all games he was healthy in 2018, Kupp averaged 17.94 PPG, which would've ranked fourth behind only Tyreek Hill, Davante Adams, and Antonio Brown)
- He put together the best tape of any receiver in the class, ranking #20 among WRs in PFF grades as a rookie, with a grade of 81.1, easily the top-rated rookie WR.
- He also finished second in yardage among rookie WRs, and would've finished first if not for the Rams resting their key players in Week 17, of which Kupp was one. He finished his rookie year as WR #27 with 9.73 PPG
