James Cook Due For Breakout 2023 Season?
The signs will always lead you down the right path. In this case, you don’t really even need them. The breadcrumbs are already there for you. For those that didn’t pay attention at the 2023 NFL Scouting Combine, Bills head coach Sean McDermott said everything you need to know. James Cook is going to be a star and 2023 is his year.
“14. I will say that you’re probably drafting James Cook too low. Bills General Manager Brandon Beane said at his press conference “Whether it is passing it to him, handing it to him, we definitely feel he can handle a higher workload.”
“With Devin Singletary a free agent and Nyheim Hines a possible cap casualty, there’s a very real path to a significant role for Cook this year in one of the best offenses in football.”
Zack Moss has been gone. Nyheim Hines is a nobody outside of a special teamer. Devin Singletary is a free agent and Buffalo won’t overspend to keep him. The truth of the matter is baring injury take the over on 110 touches that Cook received a year ago.
Cook, 23, averaged 5.7 yards per carry on limited attempts a year ago. We also know from his time at Georgia that he thrives in the passing game. We’re also talking about being part of a great offense in Buffalo on a team that came up short because they don’t run the ball enough. Buy James Cook stock wherever you can in fantasy. You won’t regret it. Get ready for a big breakout 2023 season.
