Fantasy Footballers on James Cook

PodcastAFC East Breakdown + Meow Men - Fantasy Football Podcast for 7/11July 11, 2026

From the episode

He's one of the true workhorses. And he needs to be thought of that way in the same breath as the great ones out there. The B. Johns and CMCs, I think... he's an easy, safe, high upside, high floor pick. 11 games of 80-plus rushing yards was the most in the NFL.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

James Cook is described as a true workhorse in the same breath as elite running backs like B. Johns and CMC, with 11 games of 80-plus rushing yards (most in the NFL) and high floor/ceiling despite TD regression from 16 to 12 rushing TDs.
