PositiveProjectionJul 21, 2026
Cook was RB6 on RB7 usage when removing Week 18, posting 19.1 carries and 98.3 rushing yards per game with a sustainable 5.1 YPC; he plays next to Josh Allen and behind a quality Bills OL returning 4-of-5 starters, with the Bills third in scoring last year and second in projected scoring for 2026. Cook was RB10 in inside-the-five-yard-line carries and had five rushing TDs from outside the 20-yard line; Josh Allen will steal some short-yardage TDs, limiting Cook's TD upside despite his mid-range to low-end RB1 status in half-PPR or standard scoring. Joe Brady's promotion from offensive coordinator to head coach means the Bills offense should feel nearly identical with only marginal changes (DJ Moore addition, OL coach departure); Allen had a relatively down season and could return to MVP-level performance, supporting Cook's RB1 floor.
