Shark Bites

Bills RB James Cook was limited in Wednesday's practice with a hamstring issue. We don't have any other details, but it's a positive sign that Cook was able to get on the field at all this early in the week. He can stay penciled into Week 2 fantasy lineups for now, but his status bears monitoring over the next few days. RB Ray Davis remains one of the highest-upside handcuffs in fantasy football and should remain stashed on fantasy benches despite a quiet Week 1.

The Bills and RB James Cook have agreed to a four-year, $48 million deal with $30 million guaranteed, according to his agent. That makes Cook the league's sixth highest paid RB in average annual salary, just ahead of Kyren Williams' new deal at $11 million per year.

Bills RB James Cook was back on the practice field on Tuesday. He participated at the start of camp but then staged a "hold-in" for a little over a week, which included Buffalo's preseason opener. We're frankly not sure what Cook's strategy is here, or if he has any intention of sitting out regular-season games without a new contract. We'll continue to keep a close eye on the situation. For now, we're projecting Cook to play the entire season. See where he lands in the RB rankings.

Players to Avoid: Who Not to Draft in Fantasy Football

12:44pm UTC 8/27/25

Terry McLaurin was awesome in 2024, but the way he scored makes him a 2025 landmine. Avoid him and these other four in your fantasy football draft ... if you want to win.
