"Buffalo Bills RB rushed for 16 touchdowns last season, but seven running backs scored more fantasy points because they either accumulated many more rushing yards or played a large role in their team's offense catching passes. Cook did neither. He barely slid past 1,000 rushing yards and he caught only 32 passes. With Cook's TD rate expected to fall, he was only the No. 10 RB in ESPN ADP, a bit of an overlooked third-round selection."
"Cook enters Week 5 second to San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey in fantasy points, and these players achieve their fantasy output in vastly different ways. McCaffrey's massive receiving numbers alone would qualify him to be a WR1. Cook averages three receptions per game. But he is earning far greater volume than he has in past seasons, and (small sample) is scoring touchdowns at a higher rate than last season. He and QB Josh Allen coexist quite nicely."
Dalvin Cook rushed for 16 touchdowns last season but finished behind seven running backs in fantasy points due to lower rushing yards and limited receiving involvement. He barely exceeded 1,000 rushing yards and caught only 32 passes. With an expected decline in touchdown rate, Cook entered drafts around the No. 10 RB in ESPN ADP and was a somewhat overlooked third-round selection. Entering Week 5, Cook ranked second to Christian McCaffrey in fantasy points despite averaging only about three receptions per game. Cook is receiving notably greater volume than in past seasons and is scoring touchdowns at a higher rate while coexisting well with QB Josh Allen.
