3 years agoDallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott's arsenal of weaponry will look a lot different to start the 2022 season, as two of his top-three wide receivers will be new faces in Week 1. After the departure of Amari Cooper to the Cleveland Browns and Cedrick Wilson Jr. to the Miami Dolphins, CeeDee Lamb, James Washington, and rookie Jalen Tolbert will lead the wide receiver room to start the year as Michael Gallup could miss some time in the early portion of the season while he recovers from ACL surgery. The offensive line unit protecting the Dallas franchise quarterback got a facelift as well, with La'el Collins and Connor Williams no longer in the picture. After a devastating injury in the 2020 season, Prescott once again found himself as a solid fantasy QB1 in 2021, finishing the season with 20.7 points per game which was good for ninth among quarterbacks. Prescott threw for 4,449 yards and 37 touchdowns and was fairly efficient as a passer. He finished with 7.5 yards per attempt (10th), 0.5 fantasy points per dropback (11th), and a 74.0% true completion percentage (4th). Now being two years removed from his gruesome injury, we could see Prescott use his legs a bit more, as 2021 saw him finish with a career-low in rushing yards and rushing touchdowns in a full season. From 2016-to-2019, Prescott averaged 305 rushing yards and 5.3 rushing touchdowns per season, which is far better than the 146 rushing yards and one touchdown he finished with in 2021. Considering he gets an offseason where he is fully healthy, the 28-year-old is set up to have yet another strong showing in his seventh season. Yes, the loss of Cooper certainly doesn't do him any favors, but the likes of Dalton Schultz, Lamb, and Gallup are a formidable group of receiving threats to sustain QB1 fantasy production. It is possible an increase in rushing volume will heighten his fantasy floor, but Prescott should still be valued as a lower-end QB1. He has some upside considering his weak strength of schedule in 2022 and makes for a great target to those who prefer to wait on drafting a quarterback.--Tommy Adamopoulos - RotoBaller
