FireChans Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 I have been watching some games from last season just for fun. The more I watch Cook in his limited role last year, the more excited I get. Cook, as we know, struggled to get on the field last year. Part of that may have just been some of his rawness in regards to the little things, things that Singletary as a less athletic player was clearly better at. But now, with a full off-season, a decent rookie season under his belt, and limited competition from a pass-catching standpoint, I really think Cook is gonna have a monster year. His burst is undeniable when watching him play last season. If he can tighten up in pass pro and his field awareness, I could see Cook with easily 1200 scrimmage yards. 7 4 1 Quote
Andrew Son Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 I agree. The one concern I have- as you noted- is pass protection. That will get him off the field quick. 2 5 1 Quote

Beast Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 He still has two vets ahead of him that have been there and done that at a pretty decent level. I really like our RB group. Quote

Dablitzkrieg Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 He's a liability in pass protection. Going to limit his PT 1 2 1 Quote

NoSaint Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Honestly, when we talk where the team got better/worse — james cook is one of my excitements the only thing to grapple with is how limited the run game should be with a franchise qb. I think the kids got real explosive potential though. He pops. Edited August 4, 2023 by NoSaint 1 1 Quote
947 Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 If Cook doesn't fumble on his first career carry, I think his 2022 season would've gone much differently. He didn't touch the ball again in the opening game, and had only 35 total touches in Weeks 2-9 As long as Cook doesn't fumble vs the Jets Week 1, I expect he'll be the RB1 for the season. 2 Quote
BuffaloBillyG Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 Maybe it's just blind fandom...but I forecast James Cook making the NFL top 100 list next year if healthy. Quote

Captain_Quint Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 He should excel in the dumpoff role underneath with his pass catching ability. If he can turn it upfield faster than old man Singletary could, it will do alot more damage. I think Josh lost faith in the dumpoffs after watching Singletary struggle for the last few years. Quote
NickelCity Posted August 4, 2023 Posted August 4, 2023 Like others, I'm very interested to see how he holds up in pass pro. Quote
