Tier 2 WR and fantastic pick at tail end of round one. Back-to-back disappointing seasons (2023–2024: 135 receptions, 1,750 yards, 14 TDs; only 6 and 3 TDs respectively) with below 80 receiving yards per game, but injuries were the primary culprit—Dak missed half of 2024, and Lamb missed time and played injured much of last season. In 11 games without early injury exit, Lamb averaged at least 7 targets per game with a 17-week pace of 167 targets, demonstrating locked-in volume. George Pickens opening up the offense theoretically reduced Lamb's target ceiling from 180, but Pickens' downfield threat forced defenses to shift coverage, helping Lamb achieve his highest yards per reception of career. Lamb posted 8.9 yards per target (elite tier, above Josh Almond's 8.4 and Drake London's 8.0, comparable to Justin Jefferson's 9.7). JJ Zachariason rates him a very safe, high-end start with elite underlying talent; Dallas remains a lead offense with Dak fully capable of leading league in passing yards per game.

Source transcript excerpt
Also an amazing pick at the tail end of round one is CD Lamb... in the 11 games that CD Lamb didn't leave early due to injury, he had at least seven targets in every single game. He had a 17week pace of 167 targets... he definitely deserves to be in tier two. Uh, he's another fantastic pick at the tail end of round one.
