Miami Dolphins: 3 reasons Miami needs to draft running back James Cook
By Jeremy Klump
James Cook has the big-play ability that could complement Miami’s other breakaway players.
The last reason Miami should draft James Cook is because of his big-play ability.
This dude is a gamer, and he always brings it when he is on the field.
When you need a big-time play, you get one from him because he is a big-time player. In the first round of the college football playoffs, Georgia rolled past Michigan, and a big part of that was Cook’s dominance. He caught four passes for 112 yards and a 39-yard touchdown.
Here is that big touchdown, and he had other impact plays in that game too. You can see his potential in Miami’s offense just off of that play alone!
He is a threat to score a touchdown on a big run or big catch on any play, and he has so much untapped potential because of it. Georgia was loaded at running back, so Cook did not get as many touches as he could’ve. However, in the NFL, I expect that Cook will thrive with more touches, and he will highlight even more that he is a big play waiting to happen.
The Miami Dolphins already have some home run hitters with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, so adding another big-play guy like Cook would be amazing for their offense.
