Cook finished as the No.6 tight end in fantasy last year after setting career highs in targets, catches, receiving yards, and touchdowns in his final season with the Raiders. Injuries and the trade of Amari Cooper to the Cowboys made Cook the defacto No.1 receiving option for Derek Carr, and Cook came through with three 100-yard games, including an 8/110/2 week-winner performance against the Browns in Week 4.
The Saints signed Cook to a two-year, $15 million contract to be the receiving tight end for Drew Brees. Owners expecting Cook to be the second coming of Jimmy Graham should temper their expectations, as Cook is not the same physical freak as Graham was back in the day and the Saints offense of 2019 is not the same as it was when Graham patrolled the Super Dome.
Conversely, owners who are expecting Cook to bust like Coby Fleener did a few years past may be too down on Cook, as the former Raider is a more athletic tight end than Fleener. The answer most likely falls between the two, with 700 yards and six touchdowns well within the realm of probability.

 Kamara limited, Jared Cook practices in full
Saints getting healthy after bye week
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Nov 6, 6:00 pm
|  | Saints RB Alvin Kamara (knee/ankle), TE Josh Hill (calf) and CB Patrick Robinson (hamstring) were all limited in Wednesday's practice. TE Jared Cook (ankle) and WR Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) practiced fully. (Mike Triplett on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Coming off their bye, the Saints are getting close to full strength. We're expecting Kamara and Cook to play this week but given Latavius Murray's workhorse role while Kamara was out, we could see more of a time share in Week 10 than Kamara owners would like. We'll have a better idea of Kamara's health after practice on Friday.
| Drew Brees out 6 weeks, torn ligament in thumb
Surgery required
By: Mike Krueger | Mon Sep 16, 10:30 am
| | Saints' QB Drew Brees is expected to undergo thumb surgery as early as today that would be expected to sideline him approximately 6 weeks, per leagues sources. If the Saints decide to put Drew Brees on IR for the thumb surgery that is required, he would be unable to practice for six weeks and would to miss eight games. Saints also could not place him on IR and bring him back when ready. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: We got a sense yesterday when the injury occurred that Brees was going to miss some time. He couldn't grip the football and left the game with a hard cast on his thumb. Teddy Bridgewater will take over as the starting quarterback while Brees is out. This is a downgrade for all the Saints skill players including Alvin Kamara, Michael Thomas and Jared Cook. Bridgewater checks in as a middling QB2.
