• James Cook was a top-12 RB last season: There is ample reason to believe the Buffalo Bills' top running back will get more opportunities this year.
• Josh Jacobs should dominate the Packers backfield: With A.J. Dillon out for the year and MarShawn Lloyd struggling with injury, Jacobs should get the vast majority of snaps.

James Cook, Buffalo Bills (ADP: 4.01, From consensus ADP)
Cook flashed versatility in his second season, playing well on gap/zone plays and excelling on non-perfectly blocked plays and against eight-man boxes. He has been particularly good at breaking off longer runs, although they haven't led to touchdowns.
The Georgia product took major steps forward in his utilization from his rookie year to his sophomore campaign, playing significantly more snaps in every situation while receiving the ball roughly the same amount while he was on the field.
