Cook Imogen s just more explosive than Fournett and has proven his explosiveness versus elite teams. He is a true home run hitter. He is the top player and my sure fire 1.1
I think that this is a great strategy. While I don't think you can go "wrong" per se with either RB, there is a clear perception that Fournette is the heads and tails consensus #1 pick when I'm actually of be opposite mindset. Even articles like the recent "Betting the House on 2017" did absolutely nothing to sway me in this regard. I know it's going to be a long offseason and there's plenty of time for folks to have opinions swayed, but it's going to take a lot to budge mine. And in the meantime, if you can pry extra value out of the Fournette bias, then nice work! :thumbup:

I thought about this as well until I was told the 1.2 owner prefers Cook. Unfortunately, I don't want the chance to miss out on Cook if I decide on him. Im so torn. I started the season as the biggest Fournette fan. I now am right down the middle.

With the 1.01, I flip flop on Fournette and Cook daily. Good problem to have. I also have the 1.03 so I get to snatch up the top receiver as well. Going to be a fun offseason.

I'm certainly not complaining, but I should be able to get a decent prospect at 1.4. Would be nice to have my pick of wr though.

Just traded for the 1.02. I really hope to get Cook there. If Cook goes first, and Fournette is on the Browns, Jets, or Niners, I'll take Mike Williams unless I can trade down :/

I think that's a solid strategy. I'm still waiting on that analytical article, but I move more towards Cook everyday.
