Buffalo Rumblings on James Cook

Cook's six yards per carry leads the group, but fumbles and receiver underuse limit upside.

Cook is the engine of Buffalo's running back group with 70 rushes for 421 yards and three touchdowns, averaging six yards per carry. However, he's fumbled twice and has been underutilized as a receiver, catching just six of ten targets for 24 yards. The source notes Cook's backups (Ray Davis, Frank Gore Jr., Ty Johnson) have combined for only four carries and 12 yards, making Buffalo's deployment of Cook predictable and suggesting the coaching staff should either use a change-of-pace back to rest his legs or incorporate Cook more as a receiver.
