Brady Cook

Missouri is a legitimate preseason Top-10 team with Cook returning and a bevy of weapons around him, including Biletnikoff Award candidate Luther Burden. Cook was solid in his first year as the starter in 2022 and found another level in 2023; he threw for nearly 600 more yards and seven more touchdowns on 15 fewer passes while bumping his YPA from 7.1 to 9.0. Being as experienced as he is, it's difficult to envision Cook not building on his 2023 breakout, especially when Missouri ranks 16th in returning offensive production. Being Luther Burden's quarterback would be enough to give almost anyone some fantasy upside, but Cook is talented in his own right and can get it done on the ground as well (904 yards, 14 RuTD since 2022).
