CD Lamb
This past season was his rookie season, no minicamps, no training camp, no preseason games. A new coaching staff trying to find an identity. The starting QB goes down. The entire squad of O-linemen go down. The running game underperforms. He's competing with 2 other talented WR's for looks.
And yet, he gains over 1000 yards from scrimmage, just 35 yards shy of a 1000 yard receiving season. In Cowboy history he is ranked #1 in receptions. He is ranked #2 in yards behind only HOFer Bob Hayes.
He will enter the 2021 season with a full offseason of training, receiving reps from the #1 QB, with a years experience as a starter.
DB's trying to cover him will have better luck if they tried to grab his cellphone.
2021 will be the Year of the Lamb.
I don't even call Lamb an X-factor because there's no mystery there. He is good and will get better.
I liked LVE as a pick, because I can see him being meh again, or great like 2018.
Pollard was my pick last year, but he really went nowhere. It will be even harder to get him on the field now with Jarwin back.
Another X-Factor is Gallup - will he still be here? I've been wanting to cash him out since Dak went down. If Gallup is gone, then Pollard could be the designated 5th man.
I'd really like a lineup of Cooper, Zeke, Jarwin, Lamb as WR/Runner, and Pollard as the RB/WR.
Lots of position flex. Everyone contributes in run and pass. No dead weight. Multiple legitimate runners. Deep speed with Pollard and Cooper. Everyone and every spot on the field must be defended.
