From the article

Cook is one of my favorite running backs to draft this year. He has improved every season of his career, totaling at least 1,000 rushing yards in three consecutive years, including an NFL and career-high 1,621 in 2025. More importantly, Cook is one of five running backs to average 15.5 or more half-point PPR fantasy points per game in each of the past two seasons.

Positive signalProjection

Cook's 1,621 rushing yards and 15.5+ PPR PPG consistency make him a top-tier RB target.

Cook is one of Mike Fanelli's favorite running backs to draft this year; he has improved every season of his career, totaling at least 1,000 rushing yards in three consecutive years, including an NFL and career-high 1,621 in 2025. More importantly, Cook is one of five running backs to average 15.5 or more half-point PPR fantasy points per game in each of the past two seasons. Buffalo's offense should remain the same after promoting Joe Brady from offensive coordinator to head coach this offseason.
