Lamb became one of the best wide receivers in the NFL last year and we're buying a repeat. We aren't opposed to drafting him as early as 1.02 in a PPR redraft league and he's an easy top-five pick in a Dynasty startup as well. It's rare that a player's volume and efficiency spike like this, but Lamb saw 25 more targets in 2024 and somehow produced more yards per target as well. His 135 catches led the NFL and even that might sell him short. From Week 8 on Lamb averaged 12.6 targets per game and was on pace for 156 catches over a full season. The Cowboys added no competition for targets and appear ready to feature Lamb like no other wide receiver in the league this season.
Lamb led the entire fantasy football world in fantasy points last season, surpassing 25 points in eight games and truly dominating the second half of the season. Lamb started slow -- a career theme, actually -- but from Week 8 on, he averaged 28.5 fantasy points per game. His 313.6 fantasy points in the final 11 weeks alone topped the full-season performance of all but nine NFL players. Lamb is not only a clear top-five fantasy pick, but with his durability and the Cowboys' high-octane offense, one can make the case for him as a solid choice to go No. 1 overall.
