2. CeeDee Lamb, Dallas Cowboys (vs. WAS)

There’s no denying CeeDee Lamb’s fantasy dominance this season. He’s the WR12 in PPR leagues, and he leads the Cowboys in all receiving categories this season. He’s lived up to the pre-season hype that had surrounded him all offseason. Now, fantasy managers get gifted with a dream matchup for Lamb in their playoff games.

Lamb and the Cowboys take on the Washington Football Team, who allow the second-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers and rank as the third-worst secondary in the NFL. In Lamb’s last outing against the Football Team, he caught 7-of-10 targets for 61 yards in a pretty handily 27-20 win. Expect him to match that total at the very least, and he has top-five upside this week, as the matchup is too good for Lamb.
