Cooper's Cosmic Contribution: Amari Scores Big in Week 14

Week 14 - Fancy Football II

Crown Jewels: Cameron Mahoney Takes the Throne

Congratulations to Cameron Mahoney for earning the crown this week with an impressive score of 191.1! Cameron's decision to draft Amari Cooper paid off spectacularly. Cooper exploded for a whopping 52.7 points, catapulting Cameron into first place and spotlighting him as the top value player of the week. Cameron's lineup was further solidified by strong performances from Ezekiel Elliott and Jarvis Landry, carrying him to victory with a well-rounded effort, despite the underwhelming output from Chris Godwin.

Near Misses: High Scores and Heartaches

Connor Buxton made a valiant effort, finishing in second place with 171.2 points. Like the winner, the selection of Amari Cooper proved crucial, but D.J. Moore’s performance fell short. Meanwhile, Eric Wilde managed third with 150.3 points, thanks to the standout effort of T.Y. Hilton, who put up 31.9 points, making him another key performer in this week's contest.

Chalk Busts and Hidden Gems

With the largest draft percentage, Chris Godwin was eyed by 46.2% of contestants as an impactful play, but he delivered just 2.3 points, making him one of the week's worst value players. On the flip side, both Rob Gronkowski and Dede Westbrook emerged as sleeper stars. Gronkowski's 27.7 points provided solid value for his salary, while Westbrook also surprised with a significant impact for just one drafter.

Movers and Shakers: Streaks and Standings

Jake Chrystal’s solid place at the top of the league standings strengthened with a fourth consecutive week in the top half, now boasting 9 top finishes this season. Notable streaks saw Brian Salisbury finally breaking a three-week losing streak, finishing fourth and gaining valuable ground in the overall standings.
