Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks is a touchdown-dependent fantasy option in a Wild Card Weekend matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Cooks has carved out some fantasy value this season, but he rarely sees high volume and usually needs a touchdown to put up a relevant fantasy score. In the regular season, Cooks scored a touchdown in eight games and was at least a fantasy WR2 in seven of them. In games where he did not score, his best performance was an overall WR49 game in Week 11. This week's matchup should be a high-scoring game, so there's a decent chance Cooks scores, but he comes with a very low floor so there's quite a bit of risk involved in having him in any lineups.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb is a high-floor, high-ceiling option in the first round of the playoffs against the Green Bay Packers. Lamb just wrapped up the best regular season of his career, catching a dozen touchdowns and picking up 1,749 yards on 135 catches. He was a top-15 fantasy wide out in 11 different games, and finished in the top-five six times. The Cowboys passing game goes through Lamb, and Green Bay has been average at best at defending opposing wide receivers. Lamb is likely the best option at the wide receiver position on Wild Card Weekend.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is one of the top fantasy options on Wild Card Weekend. The Cowboys will host the Green Bay Packers as Prescott will look to continue a hot streak that saw him finish the regular season with two top-seven finishes (QB7 in Week 17, QB3 in Week 18). The Packers defense didn't do much to slow down opposing quarterbacks in the regular season, so there's no reason to think they suddenly will in the playoffs. This could be one of the highest scoring games of the playoff round, making Prescott an easy top-three option at his position.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Jalen Tolbert scored a touchdown in a Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Tolbert was only targeted three times but make two catches for eight yards including a three-yard touchdown pass from Dak Prescott to open the scoring in the first quarter and give the Cowboys a 7-0 lead. Tolbert showed some flashes this season but played mostly in a bit role on offense, putting up a total of 22 catches for 268 yards and two touchdowns on the season.
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks scored a touchdown in a Week 18 win over the Washington Commanders. Cooks was targeted eight times, making his six catches for 39 yards and the score. His touchdown came on a five-yard pass from quarterback Dak Prescott in the third quarter and gave the Cowboys a 35-10 lead. Cooks had an up-and-down season which made him frustrating in standard leagues but a rather valuable asset in best ball formats. He and the Cowboys will host the Green Bay Packers in the first round of the playoffs next weekend.
