Leger Douzable said George Pickens landing in Dallas instantly fills the "true X" role the Cowboys have lacked since 2021 and should boost both Pickens’ and Dak Prescott’s season-long fantasy value. Douzable pointed out that 2021 was the last time the Cowboys had more than one pass catcher top 800 receiving yards (Amari Cooper, Dalton Schultz, and CeeDee Lamb), and that unit finished as one of the league’s most explosive offenses. Pickens has cleared 800 yards in each of his first three NFL seasons—including 59-900-3 on 7.9 targets per game last year—so Douzable expects him to keep that streak alive in a contract year. As a boundary alpha who “keeps the safety in the middle of the field,” Pickens should prevent CeeDee Lamb from being doubled as often and force defenses into single-high looks, opening bigger windows for Prescott. The tout emphasized Pickens’ elite down-field profile (second only to Tyreek Hill in 30-plus-air-yard yardage last season) and his tendency to high-point contested balls, labeling him a mid-pack WR1 talent now priced by the market as a WR2. Fantasy takeaway: buy Pickens in season-long and best-ball drafts and give Prescott and Lamb small efficiency bumps.
