Lamb left Thursday's Week 5 game with a quadriceps injury, finishing with 2.9 fantasy points while playing only 55% of the Cowboys' snaps, and was the second-most-knocked-out player all year (16.4% knocked out, most overall). However, the source notes the quadriceps issue bears watching but is not significant enough to drop him, as he'll have had nine days of rest by the Cowboys' Sunday night game. Lamb is the clear alpha in the offense with 90% route participation and a 33% target share when both he and George Pickens are on the field, and the Cowboys have a super-late Week 14 bye.

The source identifies Lamb as the optimal Round 1 pick for the 10-slot team, getting the nod for strategic reasons: he guarantees rostering a nearly Tier 1 wide receiver while granting a good chance at a Tier 3 running back (Achane, Omarion Hampton, or Saquon Barkley, among seven in the source's rankings) on the backswing for those insistent on diversifying positions. Lamb is also identified as one of the first two Tier 2 wide receivers, and the source insists that Lamb must go no later than Pick 11.
