I dont think Cook is winning ORotY by default this year. 

Just a month back, it was easy to kinda project Cooks role into a big statistical year. Murray hadn't done anything with our offense, and Cook was getting prepared. But not only is Murray eager to eat some of those reps, some of these other rookies look very promising. 

Fournette is lightning into the hole. I was surprised how fast he'd dissapear hitting a hole and reappear on the other side breaking through. AD like in a way; a classic running back. He also comes down hill on the ball hard. At times, he looked like a LB crashing the line of scrimmage. He was getting more momentium off the hand off than the young and hungry LBers that were flying up to throw their weight in the hole.

Trubisky was another guy that kind of floored me with his ability. 

Seems like the ability to fill a perfect role, like Cook, isn't going to cut it this year. A lot of young guys look like they could step up and create thier teams identities. It seems like there could be a ton of rookies contributing all around the league this year.
