Yeah, that is pure speculation - and not even speculation from anyone respectable. Nothing directly from Cook.

Look at his face and actions when he was drafted, cmon, easy to see the disappointment. Picture matters more then words. Why else are we not playing him at this point, you can’t tell me Moss is better, but has to be attitude during the week, what else can it be?

I'm pretty sure he was just getting annoyed at the people in his party ... Lol

Blackshear I believe is starting for Carolina today!

I guess they didn't want Moss plus a 5th?

Hunt is not a McBeane type high-character guy.

Kamara's character isn't quite that good either. Didn't he just get charged with brutalizing some guy not too long ago?

It is the weakest link on our team, if Singletary goes down, we have nothing back there. Gilliam needs to get more involved, he can play.

He thinks he hates it now. Wait a couple weeks. 

I'm not going to get bent out of shape about who does or doesn't want to be in Buffalo unless their name is Josh Allen. Until then, you don't want to be here? Fine, we can find someone else who does, no problem.

I don’t believe this for a second.  Kamara’s contract is back loaded.  2023: $16.1M / (0.7M savings) 2024: $23M (7.1M Savings) / 2025: $27.1M (23M savings).

This has been covered. Cook never smiles. His teammates give him crap for it too. He did an ad and he didn't smile once, looks like he hates the product but that's just how he is.

That doesn't make it unbelievable. They can work around contract stuff. It's not surprising if the offer was too low, but with the Saints being in the situation they are, you always have to see if they're willing to move one from star players in order to rebuild. Beane would definitely try to get a good deal and not overpay.

Then why is he not playing?

Because he's not good and he fumbles

I don’t believe this report at all. He would cost a few picks and then cost a boat load of cash. They could opt of after 2024, but his salary is $9.5 mil in 2023. Where’s that money coming from?

These stories are click bait.

Um …you call that a report?    Nothing was reported.   Two guys who offer no evidence that they know Cook offer no evidence that they’re familiar with what’s going through his mind.    Cook looks like that in every picture.

 

Oh, and based on the energy level, enthusiasm and vocabulary of the “sports reporters”, I can offer a report that says they’re bored, hate their jobs, hate their wives and kids, and cheat on their taxes.

Yep, picture worthy a 1000 words especially since he is a huge Dolphins fan.

Kareem Hunt is the only name left that makes sense. We clearly want a pass catching RB but have no faith in James Cook.

Cook should be okay in time and Singletary has shown he can be a good receiver.  If Bills DO trade for a back  I would prefer more of a power runner

Here’s his NFL prospect picture, pre draft.   What 1,000 words are appearing to you?

RB is not rocket science, you don't get better. Left, right and middle. You either got it or you don't. That is why so many rookie RB's excel right away.
