BALLER MOVE: Start in 8+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR1
ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is arguably the top fantasy wide receiver heading into Thursday's game against the Washington Commanders.
The Commanders have been one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL this season, allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers and the most per game to opposing quarterbacks.
That would make Lamb a top play even if he wasn't playing as well as he is right now. In last week's game against the Panthers, Lamb had his worst game in over a month, catching six of his nine targets for 38 yards and a touchdown.
That ended a streak of four games in a row in which Lamb had gone over 100 receiving yards, with the fourth-year wideout going for over 150 yards in three of those games.
It's been an incredible season for Lamb, who has seen 10-plus targets four times this year, including three times in the past four games. He currently sits second in the NFL in receiving yards and third in receiving yards per game at 101.3. Lamb's a must-start in all fantasy formats for this year's Thanksgiving meeting with Washington.
If there's any concern here, it could be that Lamb was limited in practice on Monday due to an ankle issue, but he was a full participant on Tuesday and appears to be good to go.
