Cook's NFL rushing lead benefited from Gilliam's elite run-blocking with Bills.

Cook led the NFL in rushing last season while playing for the Buffalo Bills, a team that benefited from elite run-blocking by fullback Reggie Gilliam (PFF's No. 1-rated run-blocking fullback). The Bills' rushing success and 66% red zone conversion rate (third-best) are cited as context for why the Patriots signed Gilliam to improve their own red zone efficiency.
