Sell – James Cook
Most Cook owners will see this and look at me sideways. Yes, Cook has been fantastic for the most part this season and has had some massive performances. But hear me out: since Week 5, he’s averaging 103.8 YPG, but two huge outputs inflate those numbers.
He only had two touchdowns in that span, but his carries per game have been consistent at 18.2. His schedule down the stretch leading into fantasy playoffs is the reason why I say sell high if you need depth elsewhere. He’s got a gauntlet in his remaining schedule.
Sell – Rome Odunze
The Bears have been rolling on offense since Week 2, and one of the main reasons is Odunze. He’s a straight baller and has the speed to touch any DB in the game. The problem I have with him is his recent lack of production, and it’s only going to get worse. Luther Burden III is on the prowl.
Odunze is a target monster and was a second-round pick of Chicago, which means Ben Johnson is really invested. Yes, he has not been a factor yet this season, but Zaccheaus had four drops in Week 10 and a few more in Week 9. He’s literally falling apart, which means Burden is coming. I expect Odunze to continue producing, but not at the same level as he was at the beginning of the season, given his brutal fantasy playoff schedule.
Sell high on Rome after his solid Week 10.
