Ron Stewart on James Cook

Moved up in rankings after research; solid 18+ PPG benchmark for round three RBs.

Ron Stewart moved James Cook up in rankings after conducting additional research, indicating increased conviction in the running back. Stewart uses Cook's last season (18+ PPG) as a benchmark for round three running back expectations, noting that 18+ PPG is solid but not legendary for mid-round RB selections. When Jonathan Taylor and Christian McCaffrey are unavailable at 1.07, Stewart prefers Jalen Simmons and suggests waiting for round three backs like Breece Hall or Jeremiah Love instead of forcing Cook at that pick.
