[MIA - Dalvin Cook not a fan of Miami's offer]() Source: ESPN - Jeff Darlington Free-agent RB Dalvin Cook (Vikings) is 'not willing to accept' the Miami Dolphins' contract offer, ESPN's Jeff Darlington reported on Saturday, July 8. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Cook to the Dolphins is something everyone under the sun has been speculating. That's not going to happen unless the Dolphins offer more money or if Cook caves on the price he wants. At this time, it seems like the New York Jets may be moving into the driver's seat when it comes to landing Cook. We should see him sign some time in training camp.

[DET - WR St. Brown Excited By Hype]() Source: ProFootballTalk.com - Josh Alper Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown is excited by the hype the fans have for the team in 2023. "They have big expectations, but I feel like no matter what, they're always going to be there for us. That's something, as a player, I really appreciate, because there's definitely those bandwagon fans that you see with the big teams that win a lot." St. Brown said. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] It's cool to see Lions fans legitimately excited about their team in 2023. Setting their sights on the playoffs and an NFC North title is well within reason. It comes down to how much the defense can improve and how well QB Jared Goff manages the game.

[NYJ - RB Hall the X-Factor in 2023?]( Source: Bill Riccette - USAToday.com There are some who consider New York Jets RB Breece Hall the "x-factor" for the team in 2023 according to Bill Riccette from USAToday.com. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Hall is coming back from the knee injury that cut his rookie season short in 2022. He'll be the lead back, and he's got the skill set to wear down a defense as the game goes on. However, the Jets might be the front-runners to land RB Dalvin Cook in free agency. If Cook was added to the lineup, he'd clearly be the Jets' no.1 runner. Stay tuned.

[LAR - Cam Akers was busy to end the year]() Source: ESPN.com Los Angeles Rams RB Cam Akers recorded at least 12 carries in each of the final six games of last year, logging at least 20 touches and 125 total yards in the final three contests. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Akers was fantastic to close out the season for the Rams last year. Fantasy GMs are hoping he'll continue to get that type of workload even though RB Sony Michel is back in the building. Projections for Akers vary - sometimes wildly - but it's clear RB1 upside is there. Right now, Akers has an ADP in the fourth round as an RB2 with upside.
