Sometimes all a player needs is a change of scenery. That's what happened with George Pickens in 2025 when he joined the Cowboys and immediately exploded into fantasy stardom. Paired for the first time in his career with an elite passer, Pickens caught 93 passes for 1,429 yards and nine touchdowns across 17 games. He is a huge mismatch on the perimeter against most teams and showed that he can make players miss after the catch as well, as he picked up 479 yards after the catch last season -- 12th-most in the NFL.
His draft price is steep now, but the ceiling matches the cost. Defenses have often chosen to bracket Lamb inside, leaving Pickens in single coverage outside. That's a recipe for big plays and touchdown celebrations. Look at Pickens as a high-end WR2 with week-winning upside who can realistically clear top-5 numbers again, especially if Lamb continues to struggle with the nagging injuries that bothered him in 2025.

 CeeDee Lamb leaves TNF with quad bruise
Missed time in the fourth quarter
By: Mike Krueger | Fri Oct 9, 9:21 am
|  | From @SportsCenter: #Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb is dealing with a quad bruise, and the extra few days should help. (Ian Rapoport on X)
FFToday's Take: Lamb had a dismal night (2-9-0, 5 tgts) and missed important snaps in the fourth quarter when Dallas was attempting their comeback allowing George Pickens (9-130-1) to be the beneficiary. This doesn't sound like serious injury and we should have a reasonable expectation that will play in Week 6 against the Packers.
