Help him out, give him a hand,

At the start of last year he definitely looked slow on the field which is what people were saying. Everyone knew he had speed, he showed it in college and he ran a 4.42 at the Combine... but he looked slow because of his indecision. 

 

I am optimistic he is going to take a big step this year.

I am too.

 

I also think there will be overall run game improvements going into year two for Kromer.  I think the transition last year was overlooked.

  And I read someone that is familiar with Kromer that he typically sees better results from players in his system  in their second year playing it.  Guess it takes a bit to learn it.

He runs like his brother, only less decisive and slightly smaller… two things that can be addressed with an NFL offseason under his belt. 

[JerseyBills]

Motor was pretty slow but still liked him. Cook is just fine

[Maynard]

Definitely speedy. I think he’s such a smooth runner that my brain doesn’t process his speed. He runs like a hot knife through butter. I expect big things this year for him, hopefully entrenched as the starter.

We might finally have some competent guard play, we certainly took a lot of shots at improving them.

Watching that highlight video reminded me of my favorite Cook play from last year. The second regular season Miami game, that TD pass right before the half. Went thru a bunch of emotions on that play. It was like, "Okay, if it isn't there just throw it away and take three... *Josh begins to scramble* c'mon man you're almost outta time, get rid of it! *clock expires* Crap, clock ran out, now they can't even get three. *Josh zips it to Cook for the TD* Well hey look at that!"

 

They were wizards at scoring just before the half last season.

Has anyone really said he's slow.   Devin Singletary was pretty slow.  So was Zach Moss.  James Cook is not slow in anybody's world.

I love the idea of Cook and Kincaid both being on the field. It’s a very dangerous combination potentially.

There was a lot of talk about another WR, and that wouldn’t hurt my feelings, but I like the variety of our weapons. I just hope we are smart enough to know where the mismatches are week to week and find ways to exploit them. 

[White Linen]

We don't need a workhorse and neither do the majority of teams.  The league has several examples now and over the last decade that a player of his size can be the main back.
