Buffalo Bills running back James Cook (foot, toe) is the RB6 overall in full-PPR scoring. He's a fantastic back in both the rushing and passing game and the clear focal point of Bills' offensive coordinator Joe Brady's offense. Cook already has three games of 15+ PPR fantasy points through five weeks of action.
He's scored five total touchdowns, gained 432 offensive yards, and created multiple explosive plays, and is an undeniable RB1 in fantasy football. At his ADP of around 29 (RB13), he's been a bargain.
