If you asked teams to trade for him you would have a lot of takers.
The kid is gonna be good.
He's been dealing with terrible QB play.
Michael Irvins rookie year wasn't spectacular either.
Give the kid time to grow.

He seems like just another guy to me. He is a good lp layer not great and he is not in any way a dynamic punt returner.
He is lining up inside and getting free releases, what happens when Gallup is gone and he has to beat corners who are in his face outside.

he just seems like every other good wr to me. I can’t stand the big 12 so I ever watched him in college but I was told he is this dynamic playmaker and he has not been that at all.

Cee Dee Lamb is going to be a star in this league for years to come...he has that kind of talent. Having said that he has had alot of noticable drops in the last 4-5 weeks that he is going to have to correct...which i'm sure he will

All I know is that he is the second best player on this team and is playing 20% (65% total) less snaps than Gallup. For comparison, Justin Jefferson is playing 76% of the Vikings Snaps and the same amount of snaps as Claypool and he is out performing both in catches.

He has more catches, yrds, and TDs than Gallup.


Ceedee will be a top-10 WR by the middle of next season as long as we have a new QB behind center

Premature to judge Lamb or any other player on this team right now because it's a total cluster. There are players on that field that shouldn't even be in the NFL. You can judge those but Lamb is a good player that just made a bad play yesterday but would that have really mattered?

That was a team loss, starting with that coaching staff.

He is adjusting to something he's never experienced before, a dysfunctional team with a questionable coaching staff.

The catch last week was obviously one of the best we’ve ever seen and he deserves props for that.

However, aside from that catch, how many jaw dropping/OMG plays have we seen him make this year?

He’s not really a huge leaper like Dez. He’s not a blazing WR like some others. His hands aren’t special based on all the drops.

He has top level agility which helps him on Punt Returns and get open in the slot. But even though he’s put up great numbers and can be a #1 WR on a team, I have been a little disappointed by the lack of highlight reel type plays from him.

If he were a #1 and not much else around him, like when Cooper came in 2018, would he dominate?

-Really after 1 drop, you are dumping on CeeDee Lamb? He has done more then enough to show he is going to be a special player. Lamb is the least of the Cowboys problems.

I expected more big plays, RAC, and highlight plays. Clearly, he is #1 WR talent, but I'm starting to question if he can be elite. He isn't even close to as good in the open feild as advertised.

Maybe its the fact that he does not properly fill out the #88 jersey, but there is something about him that keeps sending up warning signals to me that he he will never be Mr. Dependable

He does when Dak is the QB.

I think he’s trying to do too much and it’s a stacked roster. He doesn’t get many opportunities when they spread it around and he’s trying to stand out. He’s still learning, but definitely the most explosive of the WRs.

Too inconsistent at this point
Highlight catch followed by easy drops

This. He’s obviously going to get open, and put up numbers. However they keep giving him jet sweeps and he runs right into the defenders without making any miss which is how he made his draft stock at OU.

You can say a player may not have all the traits he was forecasted to have without saying he sucks.
