I just don't see like that crazy ceiling to compete with like the, the top five, top six picks, uh, in the draft.

Cook lacks the target ceiling to justify a top-12 draft pick

Hayden Winks is fading James Cook in the first round because he lacks the target volume to compete with top-five running backs. Despite being the RB6 last year, Cook's 39 receptions per game and the presence of Dalton Kincaid and DJ Moore suggest limited upside for increased passing game usage. Winks notes that Cook is a strong RB1 but lacks the ceiling to justify a top-12 pick.
