We already know that the Cowboys received a gift when wide receiver CeeDee Lamb fell all the way to #17 in the 2020 NFL draft. Very few people had him mocked to go that low, and the Cowboys organization said that in none of their pre-draft scenarios did they have Lamb fall to them. But it happened, and the NFL world has been very complimentary of the Cowboys drafting him even though wide receiver wasn’t a huge need, at least in the first round or two.
Lamb will join Amari Cooper and Michael Gallup in the Cowboys starting lineup, since in today’s NFL slot receiver, or third receiver, should really be counted as a starter.
