  CeeDee Lamb Camp Update — August 31: Three Veteran Receivers Cut Around Him

  Dallas made thirty-nine moves to reach fifty-three and released veteran receivers Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Tyler Johnson and Denzel Mims, while Lamb drew no reporting of any kind all week. The finale belonged to the backups, so the red-zone pecking-order question carries to Week One with nothing in it.

  CeeDee Lamb Camp Update — August 23: No Preseason Snaps by Design

  CeeDee Lamb worked a normal week in Oxnard, drew no injury reporting, and sat the preseason win in Arizona with the rest of the front-line offense. The week's practice headlines went to others, and the red-zone pecking-order question stayed uncharted.

  CeeDee Lamb Camp Update — August 16: The Touchdown Rebound Is Already on Tape

  Two red-zone touchdowns from Dak Prescott in one joint practice against the Rams is exactly the mechanism the June case needed to see. The bet on Lamb's scoring bounce-back looks healthier than it did a week ago.

• 2026 PreviewJun 13, 2026

  CeeDee Lamb 2026 Season Preview — the targets stayed, the touchdowns left

  Lamb's 2025 season rested on a target volume that historically carries between years, logging 13 games in a Dallas offense where his air-yards share has made him the clear focal point. The 12.6 half-PPR per game that produced a WR20 finish came from a player who has been available 91.8% of the time across the last five seasons, meaning the role and the opportunity are the durable parts of what he built on.

  CeeDee Lamb commanded nine targets a game last season. He scored three touchdowns. One of those numbers is going to move in 2026, and it isn't the targets. The Muffed 2026 preview on the cleanest TD-rebound buy on the board.

  The season, in its split-personality glory: in just 13 games, Lamb was the number 11 receiver per game — 12 and a half points — but only the number 20 in total, because he missed four weeks. 75 catches, 10 77 yards, and that conspicuous three touchdowns on a hundred 17 targets. A 25 percent target share, 34 percent of the air yards, on a Dallas offense that finished fourth in the league in EPA. The signature: Week 7 against Washington, a 74-yard touchdown, half in the air and half after the catch, worth five-plus expected points. When he played, he was a every-down alpha. He just played 13 times, and the end zone avoided him.

  The arc: Lamb is a proven perennial top-five-caliber receiver — this was a down, injury-shortened year sandwiched in a career of WR1 production. Same story shape as Jefferson, slightly less extreme: the role is elite and intact, the touchdowns cratered, the price came down.

  What repeats: the nine-targets-a-game. It's the stickiest thing in the sport and he's held it for years. What doesn't repeat is three scores on a hundred 17 targets — that's a bottom-of-the-barrel touchdown rate for a target hog, and touchdown rate is the least sticky number we track. Low-touchdown receivers rebound; they don't keep starving. You're buying the volume at full price and the touchdowns at a steep discount.

  The situation is the one genuine complication, and it's worth real honesty: Dallas franchise-tagged George Pickens — who quietly went for over 1400 yards as the secondary target last year — and in June the front office said publicly there'd be no extension: he plays 20 26 on the tag. Pickens signed it; the two of them now form a true two-headed receiver room, on a one-year clock. More mouths can cap a target ceiling. But the counter is in the data: even sharing with Pickens last year, in the games he played Lamb still drew 25 percent of Dallas's targets and over a third of the air yards. The volume survived the competition. Dak Prescott returns as the unquestioned starter, which is the part that actually drives the touchdown rebound.

  The price: pick 11, WR6. Verdict: CALL — underpriced. The market is pricing the three touchdowns as if they're who he is; they're the noise, the nine targets are the signal. The counter, out loud: the Pickens competition is real and could keep his touchdown share from fully rebounding, and the missed-time risk is now on his record. But a top-five target profile at WR6, with positive touchdown regression baked in, is a buy. Take it.

  September watch: the red-zone looks with Pickens healthy — that's the entire question — and his games-played column. If he's one of your guys, this show exists for your whole roster — every player, every week, all season.

  CeeDee Lamb 2025 Season in Review

  Read the full review ▾

  CeeDee Lamb finished 2025 as the number 22 wide receiver in total PPR scoring — and the number 10 wide receiver in PPR per game. That gap tells you everything. When he played, Lamb was a top-10 asset; he only suited up for 13 games, and the missing month is why his season total slid down the leaderboard. He was still the alpha when healthy, commanding a massive share of the Cowboys' passing game alongside George Pickens, who quietly went for over 1,400 yards as the secondary target. This wasn't a down year for Lamb the football player. It was an availability year for Lamb the fantasy asset.

  Now let's dig into the numbers. Lamb posted 75 catches for 1,077 yards and 3 touchdowns on 117 targets across 13 games — 15.5 PPR points per game, elite weekly production on a remarkably steady floor. He cleared 14 PPR in 10 of those 13 games, hit 20-+3 times, and logged only two duds. He commanded a 25 percent target share and a 34 percent air yards share, meaning he was both the volume hub and the downfield engine of an attack that ranked fourth in the league in total expected points added at plus 107. The drag on the profile is touchdowns. Just 3 receiving scores on 117 targets — for a receiver with this kind of target share, that's a real underperformance, and it's the single biggest reason the per-game number wasn't even higher.

  The defining moment came in Week 7 against the Commanders — first and 10 from the Dallas 26, early first quarter, Cowboys up 10 to 8. Prescott took the snap, hit Lamb on a deep middle dig, and Lamb took it the distance for a 74-yard touchdown — half the route in the air, half on the ground after the catch. The play was worth more than five expected points and captured the exact ceiling that made Lamb the number 10 wide receiver in per-game scoring. The frustration of the season is that the ceiling only showed up 13 times.
