PFF - Cook is like a mini-version of his brother Dalvin. He's a big play waiting to happen when he gets the ball in space.

FB Guys - Cook is likely to make his money on passing downs, where he is skilled enough to be split out wide and run wide receiver routes. He won’t be an every-down back like his big brother Dalvin, but Cook could be a solid RB2/Flex in PPR leagues in the right spot. He’ll be tough to pass on in the second if he gets selected on day two.

DLF - Post-Draft Summary: The Bills were long rumored to have been interested in Breece Hall, but they settled for Cook in the second round after Hall had gone to the Jets instead. The landing spot is really interesting as Buffalo has Devin Singletary as the incumbent runner, despite him never putting together a comfortable stretch of healthy and effective performances the past couple of years. Cook will likely end up in a timeshare next season, but the patience Singletary has enjoyed could dry up pretty quickly if he shows well early. As such, Cook looks like a solid pick early in the second round of rookie drafts. At the very least, he should move Zack Moss down a peg on the depth chart.
