Jared Cook 2019 Outlook
Cook is coming off a career-year with the Oakland Raiders. As Derek Carr's top pass-catching target last season, Cook corralled 68 passes for 896 yards and six touchdowns. Adding him as a free agent was a coup for the Saints, who have struggled the past few seasons to find consistent receiving weapons for Drew Brees not named Michael Thomas. As NFL.com's Kevin Patra noted, Cook provides the Saints with a seam-stretching weapon over the middle who can win one-on-one matchups with linebackers and safeties. New Orleans has been starving for dynamic production from the tight end position since trading Jimmy Graham back in 2015. Josh Hill never morphed into the playmaker Sean Payton hyped about for years. Coby Fleener disappointed. And Benjamin Watson, while solid, wasn't a matchup problem for defenses. Watson's “retirement” at the end of 2018 left a big void at the position for New Orleans once again. Cook's addition more than fills that hole and massively upgrades the Saints' offense. Per ESPN's Mike Clay, if we count only the weeks he was active, Cook has averaged target shares between 16 and 18 percent each of the past seven seasons. That's as consistent as you'll find in the NFL. Moving from Carr to Brees is a clear upgrade, and the lack of high-end wideouts beyond Thomas also works in Cook's favor here.
Jared Cook 2018 Outlook
Cook led the Raiders in receiving last season with 688 yards and could be a serious threat again this season. According to Fansided.com's Thomas Wheaton, although it was a down year for wideouts Michael Crabtree and Amari Cooper, QB Derek Carr and Cook seemed to have some nice chemistry. Case in point was a Thursday night game against the Chiefs, during which Carr trusted Cook to come down with a grab that put the Raiders on the doorstep of the end zone. Wheaton believes that kind of trust, especially in the red zone, is key for the success of NFL tight ends. Now that Cook and Carr have a year together under their belt, and Cook has shown his worth as a legitimate pass-catching threat, Wheaton is confident that Cook's role remains clear. With the added deep-threat in Martavis Bryant, the middle of the field will be more open for Cook to find space. Wheaton summed up, "(New HC Jon) Gruden surely will have a field day drawing up plays for Cook, and as a result, Cook will again have a very successful season." Fantasy owners take note.
Jared Cook 2017 Outlook
Cook drew interest from the Seahawks and Vikings before ultimately signing a two-year, $12.2 million deal with the Raiders this offseason. It's quite possible that the former Packer misread his market after emerging as Aaron Rodgers' secret weapon last season but he could have landed in worse spots. Cook is an exceptionally athletic seam-stretching tight end and should be an excellent fit in Derek Carr's aerial attack. And Cook knows what side his bread is buttered on: the newcomer immediately and favorably compared his new QB to his last QB. "(His) ball placement, able to read coverages on the move," said Cook of Carr. The comparisons didn't stop there however, as the tight end voiced his admiration for the chemistry Carr has with his receivers at such a young age. Worth noting that Rodgers thought Cook should be an off-season priority and wanted him re-signed before Green Bay decided to bring in Martellus Bennett to replace him. Now Cook joins Lee Smith, Clive Walford and Cooper Helfet on a crowded Raiders' depth chart. Expect the newcomer to add to an already-solid offense -- but likely in a limited role with more established weapons (wideouts Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree) already on board.
