Is Cook the best RB right now?

Number one in my book!

I have him at 3 behind Jayhmir Gibbs and Jonathan Taylor.

I have him clustered with those 2, Atlanta's Robinson, and Achane. I think the best can change from week to week.

Yes.  At his current contract, we robbed him blind.

It’s close.

 

If he’s not 1, he’s 2 IMO.

 

Incredible talent, needs to be utilized more in the passing game.  Bring that about this winter and were going places in January.

I think if they used him like Thurman in passing game then he could best all round back.

Right!  Instead of that stupid screen pass to Shakir that fails 9 out of 10 times, how about some swing passes to Cook.

[Big Blitz]

Right now:  
 

Taylor

Gibbs 

Bijan 

Cook 

Achane 

 

Top 5

PFF lost a good deal of credibility this week.  Cook goes for 177 yards from scrimmage and they grade him in the low 50's.  Wonder what game they were watching?

I love all of your 6 but Cook is the only one that looks like a threat to go all the way every time he gets to the 2nd level and also can get the edge with one cut and beat DBs around the corner with ease. Cook is a matchup nightmare in the passing game and if given the touches can be as prolific as CMC. Listen I’m an unapologetic homer, but between having a nose for the end zone and amassing 1500 yards if given the carries, Cook is #1 and we got him for as long as we can legally keep him. Last reason, he’s always available.

You have a lot of this right, and JC has elite short area quickness along with exceptional vision/instincts he has developed, but his Achilles in the pass game is catching over his shoulder. It looks like Brady is giving him pass catch opps where the ball comes into his chest, the way Detroit used Barry Sanders in their passing game. He would pretty easily be the most dangerous RB in the game if he was reliable grabbing it on the run in front of him, but to date that hasn’t been a choice in his quiver.
