Is Lamb 88 a 1 WR?

HeavyBarrel · Mar 13, 2022

He’s very lean, leaner than most WR’s and he isn’t naturally big (relatively speaking) so he will be lighter and seem thinner than most other WR.

He has shown flashes, but he also at times doesn't produce in big moments.

People simply act like Lamb is not capable of being / becoming a number one.

Probably not w/ Dak who prefers short passes to TE and dump offs to RB’s.

losersgetcute · Mar 13, 2022

He is better than Dez ever was, right now. He should get 1,500 yards and over 80 catches. Might drop a few because Dak is sometimes a little less than accurate.

Last time we saw this was in Houston when #2 Hopkins took over for #1 Johnson.

I don't see Lamb as a Hopkins.

Agree and wasnt he best used as a slant running slot receiver in college.... utilising his best asset, taking the ball in his path and making yards after the carry.....then we look at Dak's skill set and (in my eyes) his problem in throwing accurately in front of the slant pass.

If we arent going to utilise our players best attributes and having them play to Dak's limitations there's no point in having them.

This offense doesn’t needs a number one. Dak jsut needs a bunch of very good number 2’s and his tight end and a decent run game

Why? My team has the best WR in the division.

What made him a number 1 WR? His lack of number 1 production, his lack or chemistry with his QB, or the fact that he’s never performed as one despite any of the QBs he’s played with?

wrong again lmao. devonta couldn’t match ceedees rookie numbers (with Dalton abs Dinucci) over 17 games. knock it off. and i’m not about to go back and forth with you over why / how amari is and was a number 1.

If he can stop the drops

TheMarathonContinues · Mar 13, 2022

Has he shown it? Not in games. But when we drafted him he for sure was expected to be a #1.

Cowboysheelsreds053 · Mar 13, 2022

He better go see Lester Hayes for some stickem.

It’s crazy Lamb is listed at 6-2, 200 but guys like Cooper Kupp is listed at 6-2, 194 and Jefferson is listed at 6-1, 203 and yet Lamb looks tiny

Yep I'd like to see him throw on about 10 lb of muscle and be able to body some people up and use that to his advantage

We've had a ton of #1 receivers here through this last 27 years and yet, NO TITLES, so it doesn't matter.

I hope so because he's now Dallas's #1 WR.

Despite a 32 team league, some people only consider Top5 or Top10 as "true" WR1s.

PFF ranks Lamb #8. I'd say that's too high. I'd have him in the teens. A solid best starting WR for a franchise. That's WR1 to me.

raven55 · Mar 13, 2022

he's not e even close to being a n01 receiver, you can't have the droppsies and be that guy especially when the ball is thrown so badly by a 4 round qb

tyke1doe · Mar 13, 2022

If he had a quarterback who would treat him like a No. 1 receiver.
As Aikman said, if the 49ers gave Michael Irvin the coverage they gave Cee Dee Lamb, he and Michael would have been playing pitch-and-catch all game along.
Receivers need quarterbacks they can trust as well as quarterbacks need receivers they can trust.

Do you genuinely believe people around the league want CeeDee over DeVonta? I bet you’d even find cowboys fans on this board who’d make that swap in a heartbeat.

Have Jalen Hurts throw to CeeDee, see if he even puts up the 900 yards DeVonta did.

And you can believe Troy and Mike would have had a field day.

Weird you would say this when he was his QB in college lol

And that mattered… in college. You know who made Mike Evans the household name he is now in college? Johnny Manziel. Things are a little bit different in the big leagues.
