2024 Fantasy Outlook
Looking to bolster the middle linebacker position amid a move to a 4-3 defense, the Packers scooped up Cooper in the second round of this year's draft. Cooper brings little size (6-2, 230 pounds) but plenty of speed (4.51 40) to the table, and he was in the backfield frequently in his final year of college. Green Bay's top two tacklers from last season return, and Cooper is projected to slot into the starting spot between the two of them. Read Past Outlooks
Forces game-changing fumble
Cooper recorded nine tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, a forced fumble, and a pass defensed during Sunday's 30-27 win at Jacksonville.
ANALYSIS
Sunday's game was the most complete of Cooper's young career thus far, and it was highlighted by a strip sack on the Jaguars' four-yard line which led to a Packers touchdown. He's gotten more regular playing time over the past few weeks after a slow start to the season, but he's still not worthy of IDP consideration in most formats yet.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Praised by fellow Packers LB
Cooper impressed fellow Packers linebacker Quay Walker during OTAs and minicamp, according to Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site. "He's showing flashes, getting downhill, playing, flying around," Walker said of Cooper.
ANALYSIS
Green Bay drafted Cooper 45th overall in part due to seeing similarities to Walker, who has 239 regular-season tackles through two NFL campaigns. The pair of linebackers could start next to each other in 2024 if Cooper shows that he's ready for that responsibility, and the rookie has put himself in position to earn a starting role with hard work on and off the field. Cooper has demonstrated his athleticism by making plays in practice while also making strong progress in learning the playbook.
