Who Should I Start? Laquon Treadwell or James Cook

Sunday, August 27, 8:10 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Laquon Treadwell found paydirt on Saturday night during the team's 20-26 loss in their final preseason game. The 28-year-old registered 33 yards on two catches and one score. Treadwell was the lone receiver with a touchdown in this game while catching both of his targets. He was competing with the likes of James Proche II, Tylan Wallace, and Dontay Demus Jr. for the sixth receiver spot on the roster. If Treadwell does make it on the roster, he would be a very deep bench piece that wouldn't make him fantasy-relevant.

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook took 15 carries for 98 yards with two catches (three targets) for an additional 14 yards in Week 3's easy 37-3 win over the Washington Commanders. The 24-year-old was quiet early on, registering only 28 yards on eight first-half touches, but positive game script may have aided his path following the first half. Cook produced a few 10-yard gains thereafter, spearheading an effective day with a 34-yarder to get inside Washington's five-yard line before veteran power back Latavius Murray eventually reaped the benefits on a touchdown plunge. Though, Cook was given a chance to cash it in himself on the preceding play, and the 2022 second-rounder saw a bit more work in the red zone on Sunday than he had up until this point. Perhaps finally earning some more high-value touches, Cook will be an RB2 with plenty of upside in Buffalo's Week 4 home battle with fellow AFC heavyweight Miami Dolphins.
