EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — From former Tampa Bay star Warrick Dunn to current Atlanta standout Devonta Freeman, the Florida State football program has churned out a handful of top-flight running backs.
Seminoles Head Coach Jimbo Fisher said he hasn’t seen any as explosive as new Vikings running back Dalvin Cook.
Minnesota selected Cook with the 41st overall pick in last week’s draft. In a conference call with the Twin Cities media, Fisher said the Vikings are getting a bonafide playmaker.
“I’m going to be honest with you, you go back and (look at) how many long dynamic (touchdown) runs this guy had,” Fisher said.
