Omar Cooper Jr.
WR
New York Jets
- Teammate Garrett Wilson (a top target) is questionable.
A hurt top target or lead back nudges the projection up a little, since their work tends to shift to teammates. QB and offensive-line flags are shown for context but do not change the number.
This is how WRs have played against the Dolphins in the 2026 season.
WR2 = the second-highest-scoring WR against Dolphins in each game, not a fixed depth-chart spot.

How Omar Cooper Jr. should do vs the DolphinsSeason log, the group you pick, and a projection
Season so far, compared with what the group you pick below has done against the Dolphins, plus a projection for this game.
What is this table?
Rows at the top are every game Omar Cooper Jr. has played this season, using the same stat columns as the table above.
Compare against picks which group of Dolphins opponents to line them up with: the best WR they faced in each game (1), the second best (2), the third best (3), or all of the top three. Nobody knows which slot Omar Cooper Jr. will land in this week, so this is your call, not a guess.
Dolphins avg is the average line of that group. Difference is that minus Omar Cooper Jr.'s own average: green means the defense gives that slot more than Omar Cooper Jr. usually produces.
Projected is Omar Cooper Jr.'s recent-weighted average scaled by how generous the Dolphins were to the slot you picked. Change the slot and the projected points change, because each slot has a different matchup adjustment. Picking Top 3 uses the usual-role projection.
| Wk | Opp | Tgt | Rec | ReYd | ReTD | FPts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | TEN | 1 | 1 | 30 | 0 | 4.0 |
| 6 | NE | 7 | 6 | 103 | 1 | 22.3 |
| 7 | MIA | 5 | 5 | 115 | 1 | 22.5 |
| Jr. avg | 4.3 | 4.0 | 82.7 | 0.7 | 16.3 | |
| Dolphins WR2 avg | 3.4 | 2.4 | 21.6 | 0.0 | 4.7 | |
| Difference | -0.9 | -1.6 | -61.1 | -0.7 | -11.6 | |
Difference is what the defense allows minus what Jr. averages (green = defense gives up more). Projected stats scale the player's averages by the matchup adjustment, so they are a rough guide.
Prediction & chance to scoreOmar Cooper Jr. vs the Dolphins
Prediction for Omar Cooper Jr.
Nobody knows which slot Omar Cooper Jr. will land in this week, so pick the one you expect. The projection changes because each slot faces a different average from the Dolphins.
I predict about 10.0 points for Omar Cooper Jr. if playing as a WR2. Omar Cooper Jr. has averaged 13.2 over 2 games, and the Dolphins have given up 4.7 to WR2s (-47% vs the league average of 8.9).
How this projection is built
1. The player. Omar Cooper Jr. scored: Wk 1 4.0, Wk 6 22.3. Average 13.2; weighted toward recent games it is 14.2.
2. The defense. Over 5 games, the Dolphins allowed 4.7 points to their opponent's WR2. The league average for that slot is 8.9, so that is -47%.
3. Trusting small samples less. With 5 defensive games, only 63% of the gap is applied, capped at +/-30%. That gives a -30% adjustment (x0.70).
4. Result. 14.2 x 0.70 = 10.0. Switching slots only changes step 2 and 3: the player's own numbers stay the same, but each slot faces a different defensive average.
It is a statistical model, not knowledge of injuries, game script or weather.
Chance to score
Type a point total to see how likely Omar Cooper Jr. is to reach it as a WR2.
Why this percentage?
The projection (10.0) is the middle of the range. Fantasy scores swing a lot from game to game, so the model spreads possible scores around it by about 6.0 points, leaning on Omar Cooper Jr.'s own game-to-game swings once there are several games (and on typical WR swings before that).
Scores are modelled as right-skewed, since a big game is possible but a very negative one is not. The percentage is the share of that spread at or above 10.
With only 2 games of history, treat this as a rough gauge. It gets sharper as the season goes on. It is never lower than 1% or higher than 99%.
