Dalvin Cook 2021 Outlook
There's no denying the production. Beyond the high-end totals, FantasyPros notes that Alvin Kamara (six) and Cook (four) were the only running backs who scored more than three touchdowns in a game in 2020. Cook also tied Derrick Henry for the league lead with 78 broken tackles. But, as NFL.com noted, the history for running backs a year after taking 300-plus carries isn't pretty. Whether Cook can follow Henry's lead and improve despite a hefty workload will be a big question for Minnesota entering the new season. A new offensive coordinator will take over for the Vikings, but with HC Mike Zimmer tapping Klint Kubiak for the job, the son of retiring incumbent Gary Kubiak probably won’t change the scheme substantially. The Vikes, however, would like to lighten Cook's workload at least a bit this season. "I think it's important that we monitor Dalvin's workload as we go forward," Zimmer said. "But we need our best players in the game. Dalvin is not only one of our best players, but one of the best players in the NFL." Bottom line? It's hard to take a player with Cook's talent off the field. Fantasy managers should expect him to remain one of the few workhorses in the NFL again in 2021.

Dalvin Cook 2020 Outlook
Assuming his contract issues are resolved before the season opens, Cook will remain the centerpiece of the Vikings' offense. And with Gary Kubiak taking over the OC role, the expectations for Cook in 2020 will only rise -- with the RB himself leading the charge. "Two thousand yards," Cook said in March. "We could go like a 1,500 [rushing] and a 500 [receiving]. 1,500, 500. Or, 1,400, 600!" Christian McCaffrey was the only player to hit a combined 2,000 scrimmage yards last year with his 1,000/1,000 season. Still, Cook compiled 1,135 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns on 250 attempts and added 519 receiving yards on 53 catches in 14 games last season. Not only did the RB sit out the final two weeks, he also had fewer than 12 carries in three of the final four games he played. Despite the missed time, Cook ranked second behind McCaffrey among running backs in fantasy points per game (20.9). He was also second in top-5 finishes -- seven times out of 14 games. Had Cook not hurt his shoulder, he would have approached that 1,500, 500 benchmark and now with Kubiak fully in charge, expect Cook's workload to remain sky-high. If he stays healthy (and doesn't miss time to a holdout), those 2,000 yards are within reach.

Dalvin Cook 2019 Outlook
After a torn ACL ended his first season and hamstring injuries cost him the better part of six games in 2018, it's reasonable to expect a healthy Cook to surpass his overall career numbers this season. Remember, the second-year man didn't carry the ball more than 19 times in any game last season, after logging 22 and 27 carries in two of his first three games in the NFL. That figures to change with the arrival of offensive assistant Gary Kubiak, who will work under OC Kevin Stefanski in 2019. Kubiak's teams have long prioritized the zone-running schemes that helped make Terrell Davis a Hall of Famer and turned Arian Foster into the NFL's leading rusher in 2010. Beyond the benefits of Kubiak's scheme, we would like to see some improvement along the offensive line (a point of emphasis in April's draft) and for Cook to finally avoid injury. If he does? During the 13 games in which Cook didn't miss a substantial chunk of time, he handled 61 percent of the team's designed runs (14.2 per game) and 14 percent of the targets (4.7 per game). As ESPN's Mike Clay understated, "That's RB1-level usage."
