Dalvin Cook scored six touchdowns in 2021.

He scored 30 in the two previous years combined.

So what will that touchdown regression look like in 2022?

We'll find out right now on fantasy football today in five.

Adam Azor joined by Jacob Gibbs talking about a top five pick that's now falling maybe out of the first round,

depending on your draft. He goes anywhere from mid-first round to mid-second round.

Dalvin Cook had been a top three running back per game. Two straight years fell off a little bit

last year. But we should expect more touchdowns. What would that mean, Jacob?

Yeah, I love taking Dalvin at the back end of the first round.

I think he has the upside to push into, you know, top three running back territory again.

And a lot of it does have to do with touchdowns.

I think he really just got kind of unlucky last year.

His touchdown rate fell from 5.2% just dropped in half to 2.4%.

So that's the percentage of his rushes

that resulted in touchdowns um and then another one that i look at that i don't hear very

often is touchdown dependency which is the percentage of his fantasy points that came on touchdowns

the league average at the running back position was 25 percent last year um cook's rate was at 27 percent

2019 and then 30 percent 2020 last it was all the way down to 17%.

So among 18 players that had at least 200 rushing attempts, he was the only one with a rate

below 20%. So it's just there's clearly some bad luck there. And he still saw a lot of opportunities to score touchdowns from, you know, inside the red zone.

So the percentage of his rushes from inside the 10-yard line that resulted in a touchdown was down from 35% across the two previous seasons to 15% last year, which was the lowest among qualified running backs.

I think the main culprit was
