One spot ahead of Bill's RB, James Cook, where honestly I see some similarities from 2024 or 2025 Saquon to maybe 2025, 2026 James Cook. A lot of big long touchdown runs. We do still have Josh Allen at the goal line and we just don't know about that receiving upside in this offense. That said, Pete Carmichael now in town helping out Joe Brady and this Bills offense... So, maybe, just maybe, we actually see James Cook get back into more of that 2023 receiving workload with all the goodness he's been supplying on the ground as well over the course of these past two sort of breakout seasons for James Cook. So, for me, tough to lower him too much in the ranks.
