Video: High-stakes draft for $1 MILLION with Rich Hribar
James Cook would be close to I think having that type of ceiling if he just didn't have to deal with Josh Allen inside the five yard line... he's gonna have more fantasy efficiency because the catches are going to probably go up. So even if he gets to like that even 40 plus range, like that's pretty significant for him.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Cook's receiving work rises with tougher schedule; 40+ PPR upside despite fewer rushes.

Cook has ceiling potential near CMC/top-tier RBs if not for Josh Allen red-zone vulturing (6–8 rushing TDs inside the 5-yard line). Receiving work expected to increase this year due to Bills' tougher schedule and need to throw more; while his rushing attempts will decline, his receiving work is projected to increase significantly. Despite the trade-off, Cook's overall fantasy efficiency should improve because his catches are more valuable than his runs. Efficiency gains from increased receptions could push him to 40+ PPR points, making him significant value in round 2.
