George Pickens

For what seems to be the first time this season, CeeDee Lamb outperformed Pickens. Regardless of who is out-producing who, these two receivers are incredible and linked to the hottest offense in the league. This week, they have a great opportunity against the Lions on Thursday Night Football. The Lions just allowed Jordan Love to have four passing touchdowns, with Dontayvion Wicks and Christian Watson combining for 174 yards and three touchdowns. There should be plenty to go around in what is projected to be one of the highest-scoring games of the season. Pickens has seen seven straight games with over 75 receiving yards, and has over 140 yards in two of his last three. Both Lamb and Pickens are locked in WR1s in this incredible matchup.

The Cowboys could place the franchise tag on George Pickens this offseason.

Fantasy Impact

Pickens is enjoying a career year in his first season in Dallas. It does not appear the two sides will be able to agree to an extension right away. The franchise tag would go for roughly $27 million to $28 million.
