Fantasy Football Player Notes

I have some concerns about James Cook heading into the 2025 season. Cook's touchdown totals for the last three seasons: 3, 6, 18. Which number looks like the outlier to you?
Cook is being selected as a high-end RB2 in early drafts, which doesn't seem terribly unreasonable. But TD regression is inevitable, Cook probably isn't going to get a huge rushing load because he weighs less than 200 pounds, and while he's a good pass catcher, Cook might not be a huge needle-mover in that area simply because Josh Allen doesn't check down to his RBs very often. (Cook has averaged 38 catches over the last two years.) It's also possible the Bills give more work to second-year RB Ray Davis, who had 152 yards from scrimmage against the Jets in the one game Cook missed last season.

Second-year RB Ray Davis is an intriguing later-round flyer. He's the No. 2 running back on the Bills' depth chart behind James Cook, but Cook has expressed displeasure with his contract an is seeking a new deal. And if the contract thing becomes an issue, the Bills could pivot Davis. When Cook missed a Week 6 game against the Jets with turf toe last season, Davis had 152 yards from scrimmage in that game. Davis is a versatile run-catch threat who scored 21 touchdowns in 13 games in his final college season at Kentucky.
