James Cook going to be our next running back. The Buffalo Bills project to be a top five offense yet again... he had five additional carries per game. He had a career-high 95 rushing yards per contest... he's in the prime of his career, running behind one of the better offensive lines in the league with possibly the best quarterback play in the league... very safe round one pick.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Career-high 95 rushing yards per game; safe round-one pick with volume upside.

Cook is a very safe round one pick. The source projects the Buffalo Bills as a top-five offense, and Cook finished with a career-high 95 rushing yards per game despite rushing touchdown regression (1.0 to 0.7 per game). He gained five additional carries per game year-over-year, runs behind one of the league's better offensive lines, and has possibly the best quarterback play in the league, making rushing volume the primary driver of his value regardless of touchdown volatility.
