Welcome back, Jonathan Taylor and Cooper Kupp. Fantasy football managers have been waiting to insert the two stars in their starting lineups like kids waiting to open holiday gifts.
After both players — who in July and early August were going in the first rounds of fantasy drafts — were put on IR at the end of the preseason to dramatically drop their respective ADPs, it was doom and gloom in the fantasy community. In the case of Taylor, the drop was like a stone falling from a tall building. Personally, I picked Taylor in the eighth round of a late August draft.
