but I'll take Ja'Marr over Cooper all day long.
I haven't paid much attention to fantasy therefore and not up on non-bengal stat leaders. I was pretty blown away by what Kupp managed to do this year. I'd take Ja'marr long term due to the obvious age factor and the mind-boggling notion that he could and likely will get even better.
Side note: I remember when Kupp was being talked about in pre-draft conversation. It was the year that the Bengals selected Ross. The local guys had a national draft expert on who said he thought Kupp was going to be the best receiver in the draft. This caused the host to have a good chuckle at the idea of the Bengals taking a relatively nameless prospect like Kupp from Eastern Washington with a top 10 pick. Admittedly, nobody would have been happy at the time if that happened, but the dismissively smug attitude and literal laughter about the guest mentioning Kupp as the best wr in the 2017 draft always sticks in my head when I see him balling out in LA.
