Draft note

by John Paulsen

Cook’s camp has indicated that he’s going to hold out without a new deal. I would think the Vikings, led by run game aficionado Mike Zimmer, will get something done, but the rising possibility of a contracting 2021 salary cap may complicate matters. Cook also has a long injury history, including a dicey right shoulder (that he re-injured late last year), so he has a higher risk of injury than most running backs. Cook owners should prioritize Alexander Mattison in the draft.

Dalvin Cook out on team-related activities without a 'reasonable' deal

Adam Schefter

Jun 08 · 6:31 PM EDT

Pro-Bowl RB Dalvin Cook no longer will participate in any team-related activities until and unless he receives a “reasonable” deal, a source said Monday.

“He’s out,” a source told ESPN. “Without a reasonable extension, he will not be showing up for camp or beyond.”

Fantasy Impact:

Dalvin Cook is entering the last season on a four-year rookie deal and is expected to make just over $2 million in 2020. After posting 1,654 combined yards and 13 touchdowns in 2019, the 24-year old looking to get paid. According to Schefter, "the two sides, the Vikings and Cook, have not spoken since last week and have no further talks scheduled". Alexander Mattison and Mike Boone would see a big jump in fantasy rankings if Cook does miss playing time.

MIN RB Dalvin Cook - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 at Los Angeles Chargers

Dalvin Cook wasn't dominant last week like we thought he would be, but he still had a great game with 75 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. He's now scored in all but two games this season while averaging 123 scrimmage yards. He faces the Chargers this week, but honestly it doesn't matter what the matchup is. Cook has been too dominate to even consider benching him. He should be viewed as a must-start RB1.
