BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: QB1
ANALYSIS: Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott has not put up strong fantasy numbers out of the gate. In both games this year, Prescott has scored less than 15 fantasy points. Last season, the MVP runner-up scored less than 15 fantasy points just once over the final 12 games of the year. As a result, fantasy managers might be frustrated with him.
However, look for Prescott to bounce back in Week 3 against a Ravens defense that has allowed the most passing yards (514) through the first two games. Just last week, Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Gardner Minshew II threw for 276 yards and one touchdown against that Baltimore secondary.
Lamar Jackson and Dak Prescott will face each other for the first time this Sunday.

So, Prescott could be in for a nice fantasy day this weekend. He has also statistically been a better quarterback at home than on the road, averaging 308.8 pass yards and 2.75 pass touchdowns per game at AT&T Stadium last season.
