From the article

Cook has been a far more involved goal-line option than you might expect from a Buffalo Bills team that has the mobile Josh Allen under center, as Cook has 17 goal-line attempts to Allen's 20 over the past two years combined.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalValue

Cook has 17 goal-line attempts in 2 years; high-volume back pool dwindles quickly.

Cook is listed as an 'unlocked' player in Round 1 from slot 7 and is the optimal Round 1 pick from slot 9. The source notes that once McCaffrey and the Tier 1 wide receivers are off the board, anything goes from this draft slot. Cook gets the nod for two reasons: One, he has been a far more involved goal-line option than expected from a Buffalo Bills team with mobile Josh Allen under center, as Cook has 17 goal-line attempts to Allen's 20 over the past two years combined. Two, the pool of high-volume backs such as Cook dwindles quickly.
