Summary

Dalvin Cook continues to be one of the elite running backs in the league but his only downfall is his lack to play a full season. He has never played more then 14 games in a season and over the last four seasons has averaged 13 games played. When he is on the field he is electric as he can do it all in the backfield with rushing, scoring touchdowns, and helping in the receiving game. In 41 games over the last three seasons he has scored a total of 36 touchdowns. He has finished as the RB5, RB3, RB15 in 14, 14, 13 games over the past three seasons. The key with Cook will always be, how many games he can actually play in the season. If you could predict a full season for Cook you would have to safely put him early in the 1st round of fantasy drafts.
