The offseason of the Buffalo Bills was dominated by the ball carrier James Cook and his need for a new contract.
Planned to want around $ 15 million, so far, invoices do not seem to be so wishing to pay such a high price for their ball carrier.

Admittedly, the director general Brandon Beane said that it is not because Cook does not have a new agreement, that does not mean that he will not do it in 12 months.
So what should Cook in 2025 be to put the invoices at ease to give it $ 15 million? After consecutive seasons of 1,000 yards and a year of 16 affected in 2024, could something similar be in order?
Mike Clay d’EspnAs he does every year, gives fantastic projections for what each player could do, and the cook’s statistics line is solid.
Cook’s 2025 projection: 1,070 yards on the ground, 11 affected, 37 receptions, 282 yards, two affected.

Is it enough?
It would be another good Cook season, and would probably mean a third pro Bowl, like its shape in the past three years, if Clay’s projection is materializing, would mean that James is one of the most coherent backs in football.

But the big question is as follows: will invoices see this as $ 15 million worthy? It will be a fascinating discussion.
Playing on the last year of his recruit contract, if Cook produces like Clay thinks, we think that James will probably accept the conditions with Buffalo and extend his stay.
But exactly what money will look like is one thing entirely.
