STACKED’s take

Positive signalSleeper

Valdes-Scantling's 16.8 career yards per catch and deep-threat pedigree offer sleeper value in Dallas.

Valdes-Scantling is flying under the radar in a crowded Cowboys receiver room dominated by CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens, with Ryan Flournoy, Anthony Smith, and Denzel Mims also drawing attention. However, Valdes-Scantling has had a respectable career as a complementary receiver with two Super Bowl championships from his time with the Kansas City Chiefs. He is a certified deep threat with a career average of 16.8 yards per reception and an average depth of target of 15.7 yards beyond the line of scrimmage. While he must make the roster first, there may be a surprise player there that many have already dismissed.
