[QUOTE="Dantés, post: 776728, member: 12283"] How do we know that? And yes, it is common that high draft picks are slotted into starting roles out of the gate. Mid to late round rookies typically have to do some work to break in. Take Jordan Howard, for instance. His rookie season, he was playing behind Jeremy Langford for the first three games. In time, it proved that he was far and away the best back on the team, and yet his draft/rookie status kept him out of the lineup. It's funny to me that the primary argument for why Cook is better is that he started right away. If he was "head and shoulders" better as [USER=655]@Raptorman[/USER] stated, shouldn't there be an easy case to be made based on actual production? [/QUOTE]
