What happened to Kupp

[Londoner]

we root for the name on the front of the jersey more so than the back.

Amen.

No player is bigger than the club, as we say on this side of the Atlantic.

This could be true - but does anyone have some data on this?

I think PFF has a ranking for separation rate.

Through week 16

Look at our boys Cooper and Brandin on the left corner. Sad to see. Man they were fun to watch together in 2018.

Through week 16

I can see why they pursued Mike Evans last year. He seems to be in the upper echelon on all charts.

It looks like our guy Tutu was the best separator on the team last year. I didn't see DRob on the chart.

Devante and Tutu are nearly identical in raw separation grade but both above average in the league. That bodes well for our WR room this year.

Who the hell is right below Puka on that chart???

Could have sworn there was already a thread about this "Kupp" guy

I think this is a separate question from a generic catch-all Kupp thread.

I personally get bored with those and stop reading them after a while.
This one I clicked on immediately seeing it as a separate issue of his athletic performance.

I believe that is Robinson below Puka. It's kind of congested, not everyone is labeled.

There is literally nothing new in this thread that hasnt been discussed ad nauseum. Alas, he'll likely get cut soon and that will probably cause another thread to be started. Lol

You missed my point.
If you just title a thread, "Cooper Kupp" you're going to get everything from his shoe size to his favorite dish to whether he's trimmed his beard lately.
I'm not really interested in any of that, but if you are, enjoy.

To me, his performance is the most important aspect of why they're letting him go.
Performance.
I literally don't care what his cap hit is, I leave that to the real professionals. If you want to read about that? That's fantastic.
Go for it .
If you want to try to figure out what you're going to get in return draft pick wise that's fantastic, read all you want.
With this thread, unless somebody's already added it to the other one. We have his performance narrative condensed into one thread.

And that's all I'm really interested in.

Hoping we bring him back in a coaching capacity when he retires.

he's stated that he doesnt want to coach but that's what he seems to do on the sidelines and the offseason.

 

[FrantikRam]

Lots of teams spending cap dollars....plenty to go around still but...

Isn't it strange that we wouldn't have already released Kupp if we were going to release him?

Not strange, its the right play. Let the free agency frenzy kick off and see if any team who misses out is willing to trade. They have until the end of the week before that roster bonus is due

Well hopefully that will be a farewell thread to wish him and family the best. And he certainly rates that given what he's done for us.

Tutu?

I wondered the same

 

[I like Rams]

Tutu?

Says Ladd Mcconkery I think

Nah, i originally thought they mislabeled Ladd, but there is a charger logo there.

 

[RamsOfCastamere]

Says Ladd Mcconkery I think

There's a Chargers logo right under Ladd

It's Robinson. The chart is too crowded. DRob was the only WR not listed.

Here's another chart. End of the season, and min 250 routes (so it's less contested)
