Cook, on the other hand, has a great situation and has proven to be a value the past two seasons. Coming off a league-high 16 rushing TDs in 2024, Cook was overlooked in drafts last season. Then, a league-high 1,621 rushing yards in 2025 later, one could argue Cook is still be a bit undervalued as the fifth RB off the board on average.

Cook still undervalued as fifth RB despite 1,621 yards and elite situation.

Cook is still undervalued as the fifth RB off the board on average despite league-high 1,621 rushing yards in 2025 and league-high 16 rushing TDs in 2024. He remains in his prime, tied to an elite Bills offense, and has thrived despite Josh Allen scoring 41 rushing TDs over the past three seasons combined. Cook also has at least 32 catches in each of the past three seasons, positioning him for ceiling upside if there's any regression from Allen on the ground and the back's receiving role takes a step forward.
