He's not as big of a back as Dalvin but he has good vision and moves and is probably a better receiver than Dalvin.
He wasn't used as much at Georgia because they didn't really need him but I think he could develop into something special in the NFL.
Agreed for the most part. I considered his vision a negative before last season but he seemed much better (possibly bc of more opportunity or development ?). I think Cook has some bust potential , but also a decent ceiling due to measurables and improvements in his final year @ G. He actually played behind Bengals rb Holyfield (who probably would’ve been drafted if his 40 time would’ve been better). I think Cook is a better rb on tape, although Holyfield is an odd tape to evaluate bc he’s unorthodox in style, so perhaps he’s a natural outlier at the position. I did see a tad bit of Arian Foster in his tape if I were reaching for optimistic comparisons (regarding Holyfield ). Speaking of Cook again, I personally think he went a bit higher than I would’ve taken him, but he was drafted into a good situation with opportunity , and I wouldn’t be surprised to see him succeed.
