Alright, let’s talk about this whole Dalvin Cook fantasy football thing that I messed around with today. So, I’ve been playing fantasy football for a while now, and I always like to try out different strategies, you know? This week, I decided to take a closer look at Dalvin Cook, who’s now with the Dallas Cowboys.
First off, I did some digging on the guy. Turns out, he’s been around the block, played for the Florida State Seminoles in college, and was a big shot there – even became their all-time leading rusher. That’s something, right? He’s been with the Cowboys’ practice squad for a while now, and it seems like they finally elevated him to the active roster in Week 8. I guess they were hoping he could add some spark to their running game, which hasn’t been great.
Now, here’s where it gets interesting for us fantasy nerds. I saw some folks online saying he might be a decent pick, especially if you were thinking of starting Dowdle. But, honestly, the whole Cowboys’ backfield seems like a bit of a mess to me. It’s like, do you really want to get into that? I don’t know.
My Experiment
- Started Researching: First thing I did was just read up on Cook’s history and recent news. I mean, you gotta know what you’re getting into, right?
- Checked the Stats: Looked at his past performance, how he did in college, and what he’s been up to with the Cowboys.
- Considered the Cowboys’ Situation: Tried to figure out how Cook fits into the Cowboys’ current game plan. They haven’t been running the ball that well, so it’s a bit of a gamble.
- Looked at Expert Rankings: Yeah, I even checked out what those so-called “experts” had to say about him. They had some mixed opinions, which made me even more unsure.
- Made a Decision: In the end, I decided to leave him on the waiver wire for now. It just didn’t feel like the right move for my team this week.
So, that’s my little adventure with Dalvin Cook in fantasy football today. It wasn’t anything too crazy, but it’s always fun to dive into these things and see what you can find out. For now, I’m keeping him on my watchlist, but I’m not ready to make a move just yet. We’ll see how things play out in the next few weeks.
