FFToday's Take:Pickens had a monster season in his first year with Dallas, finishing as the WR5 overall (half-PPR) with a 93-1429-9 line. He won't turn 25 years old until early March and gives the Cowboys a prime second option behind CeeDee Lamb. The franchise tag for wide receivers in 2026 will be worth around $28 million. A long-term deal is said to be desired by team owner Jerry Jones.
