The Fantasy football draft bible includes 2022 Fantasy football breakouts you'll need to know before you go on the clock including:
RB James Cook, Buffalo Bills: At the moment, Cook is the 43rd running back coming off the board in season-long PPR leagues, but Gibbs has him ranked No. 31. The Georgia product worked as part of a committee with the Bulldogs, showing impressive hands as a receiver out of the backfield and using his burst to cause problems for opposing defenses. He expects to slot into a similar role with the Bills and has the upside to see a heavy workload on passing downs while playing with an elite quarterback.
"He has some of the best per-route rates of any RB prospect that I have evaluated, and only Kennedy Brooks piled up explosive rushes at a higher rate among the 2022 rookies," Gibbs told SportsLine. "I believe that it is within Cook's range of outcomes to produce PPR results similar to elite dual threats like D'Andre Swift, Austin Ekeler, or Alvin Kamara."
RB Rachaad White, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: White was a third-round pick and Leonard Fournette is a more challenging first-year obstacle than Devin Singletary, but White brings a lot of the same characteristics to the table as Cook. White transferred to Arizona State out of a D-II school, produced an absurd 571 yards and six scores on just 50 touches in his first year on campus, and then piled up 1,465 scrimmage yards and 16 scores on just over 20 touches per game in his final season in Tempe.
"If White's receiving rates came on a larger sample size, I would have him ranked as the RB2 in this class," Gibbs said. "Beyond 2022, there's a realistic possibility involving White working his way into a three-down role. He has the frame for early-down work, and his CFB per-route rates speak for themselves. The top-range-of-outcomes prototype is something resembling early-career David Johnson, but Tony Pollard-like contributions are probably a more realistic long-term expectation."
