James Cook in dynasty: value, format and fit

In a 1QB league he is worth 9,050, the same as superflex, because the format adjustment only moves quarterbacks. These are the numbers the dynasty trade calculator starts from; league size, scoring and consolidation logic adjust them for the trade in front of you.

The players closest to him in value are Jaxson Dart (QB, 9,278), Jonathan Taylor (RB, 8,815) and De'Von Achane (RB, 8,756). Inside that band, position and age decide the trade, not the raw number. A straight swap for Jaxson Dart (QB) is +2.5% for the side receiving Jaxson Dart (QB). A 2-for-1 that returns Woody Marks (RB) and 2028 1st (Late) is dead even on value before the consolidation bonus the calculator applies to the side getting James Cook.
