STACKED’s take
Lamb's upside capped by Pickens; red-zone share dropped from 28.8% to 18.6%.
CeeDee Lamb could have been back in the top-two wide receiver conversation if George Pickens had hit the open market or been traded by the Cowboys instead of signing his franchise tag tender. Lamb has the talent and environment to succeed, but Pickens has slightly capped his upside. Lamb posted the second-lowest numbers of his career in targets, receptions, and yards (only his 2020 rookie season was worse) and had a career-low three touchdowns. Pickens saw a 22.1% red-zone target share compared to Lamb's 18.6%, which was also behind Jake Ferguson's 23.1%. Lamb's red-zone target share in 2024 was 27.7% (leading the team by 10%) and in 2023 was 28.8% (also leading by 10%), making it clear where Lamb needs to bounce back to return to the highest tier of wide receivers.
