James Cook is an elite runner with a capped fantasy ceiling

Davis Mattek notes that James Cook remains a viable DFS play every week, functioning as an elite runner in a top offense. Cook is currently in a '2024 Saquon Barkley' range, though his fantasy ceiling is capped by a lack of targets and an inability to secure one-yard touchdown opportunities due to Josh Allen's involvement.
