00:02 It's tough.
00:03 I think James Cook is very talented.
00:06 I've been sort of surprised by the Bills' insistence on using Latavius Murray,
00:12 on using Damian Harris before he got injured.
00:15 But what's clear is that there are certain roles in the game that the Bills
00:19 just do not trust James Cook in.
00:20 Short yardage, goal line, really even some on third downs,
00:24 they've been using Latavius Murray.
00:26 I think what signing Leonard Fournette is about is saying, well, come on,
00:30 Latavius Murray, he's 33 years old, he just does not have the juice, so
00:34 we're gonna bring Fournette in.
00:36 What you would be concerned about would be that, okay,
00:38 Fournette takes Latavius's snaps, but what if he does good on those snaps?
00:42 He's a big bodied guy, he's fumbling, he's playoff, he's Lombardi Lenny,
00:46 he's playoff Lenny.
00:47 And then all of a sudden, James Cook is just Nike minds.
00:51 However, I don't just don't, it's like Lenny off the couch,
00:55 has this guy been working out?
00:56 What kind of shape is he in?
00:58 I would like to bet against that archetype of player and
01:01 bet on the James Cook archetype.
01:03 And again, talking about these frustrating guys,
01:06 there's gotta be plenty of fantasy managers out there who are saying,
01:10 freaking great, Leonard Fournette's coming in,
01:13 he's taking away all my touchdowns, I can't have this.
01:16 I'm not gonna be able to start James Cook.
01:17 I bet James Cook is pretty gettable in fantasy football right now.
01:21 So again, I would put him on the trade four list.
