This is obviously huge news for Alexander Mattison as he will finally be the lead back in Minnesota. Mattison has a chance now to finish as a top-tier fantasy running back in 2023. Keep an eye out for our fantasy football rankings as when they are updated you will see a pretty big jump for Mattison. As for Cook, it all depends on where he lands. Let’s now look at 3 potential suitors for the star running back.

Miami Dolphins

Rumors of Dalvin Cook to the Dolphins have been circulating for months now. The Dolphins have no clear-cut #1 running back and this spot makes the most sense. Raheem Mostert, Jeff Wilson Jr. and rookie Devon Achane round out the crowded running back room for the Dolphins. Achane was a 3rd round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft so the Dolphins have some investment there. Still, when you have a chance to grab one of the top running backs in the game you take it.

Denver Broncos

The Denver Broncos are another team to keep an eye on as a Dalvin Cook landing spot. Denver has Javonte Williams coming back and they also signed ex-Bengal Samaje Perine this offseason. There are some factors here to consider. The first is Williams suffered an ACL tear back in October and it might take some time before he is ready. The other is Perine is more of third down running back and has never handled a heavy load. If Head Coach Sean Payton believes his team is a contender, expect him to make a move.

Dallas Cowboys

Dallas is a bit of a wild card on this list but there are signs the Cowboys may be interested in Cook. Earlier this offseason the Cowboys decided to release Ezekiel Elliott and move ahead with Tony Pollard. Although Pollard has shown a ton of potential the questions are there if he can handle a full-time role. Fantasy owners would not be happy with Cook entering the mix but the Cowboys offense would become a major threat next season. Never count out Jerry Jones to make a splashy move and bringing in Dalvin Cook would certainly be that.

QB Fraud Of The Week: Deshaun Watson 6.34 FP

131 Passing Yards, 1 Interception, 7 Carries, 21 Rushing Yards (Projected: 20.56 FP)

Deshaun Watson had a debut to forget when the Browns’ played the Texans. The new QB1 completed 12 of 22 passes for just 131 yards and an interception. The rust was there after a a long absence from the game. With the fantasy playoffs approaching, it’s best to stay away from him at the moment until he shows that he is back.

RB Fraud Of The Week: Jeff Wilson 0.30 FP

1 Carry, 3 Rushing Yards (Projected: 12.18 FP)

Miami abandoned their running game early when they were down quickly to the San Francisco 49ers. This affected Jeff Wilson’s performance greatly. The RB ran for just three yards and missed two targets in the loss. He has been consistent this past few weeks, so look for him to bounce back against the Chargers in Week 14.

WR Fraud Of The Week: Michael Pittman Jr. 3.60 FP

2 Receptions, 16 Receiving Yards (Projected: 14.32 FP)

Michael Pittman Jr. was stopped in Dallas’ blowout win over the Colts 54-19. Trevon Diggs and the Cowboys’ defense did their job in stopping Pittman. The Colts’ WR caught just two balls for 16 yards. This was his worst performance of the year and he gets a chance to rest in Week 14 during their bye.

TE Fraud Of The Week: Travis Kelce 7.60 FP

4 Receptions, 56 Receiving Yards, 1 Fumble Lost (Projected: 19.79 FP)

Travis Kelce had an underwhelming performance against the Bengals in the loss to the Bengals. Kelce only caught four passes for 56 yards and lost a fumble also. Cincinnati has had its way with KC over the past few games. If ever they meet in the playoffs, it will surely be a fun matchup to watch.

DEF/ST Fraud Of The Week: Jacksonville Jaguars -2 FP

35+ Points Allowed, 2 Sacks (Projected: 6.44 FP)

The Detroit Lions stomped through the Jacksonville Jaguars 40-14 in their Week 13 matchup. Jared Goff was elite, throwing for 340 yards and two TDs, both to Amon-Ra St. Brown who had 11 catches for 114 yards. In the running game, D’Andre Swift and Jamaal Williams combined for 97 rushing yards and two TDs. Chad Muma led the way with one and a half sacks for the Jaguars.
