The Dallas Cowboys were the perfect carnival team in 2025. While that didn't exactly translate to real-life success, fantasy football managers were certainly happy with the results.
Dallas' defense was left in shambles after they traded superstar pass-rusher Micah Parsons to the Green Bay Packers just days before Week 1. There's no replacing a one-man wrecking crew like him, especially on the shortest of notice. His departure, combined with a loaded cast of playmakers, created the ideal environment for constant pinball affairs.
It was a true "everybody eats" offense, as the numbers bear out. The Cowboys had at least one player at every skill position finish top-12 in point-per-reception (PPR) scoring average. Star wide receiver George Pickens and workhorse running back Javonte Williams were goldmines given their respective draft prices and outstanding production.
This offseason has been much quieter, at least by Dallas' typically loud standards. How things shake out between Pickens and his fellow dynamic running mate, CeeDee Lamb, is arguably one of the most burning questions. The latter's health (or lack thereof) was another factor in the former's breakout campaign.
Can Pickens and Lamb coexist as WR1s when they're both at full strength? A small sample size tells us yes, yet as previously highlighted, the stars couldn't have aligned much better for them to stuff the stat sheet.
Training camp and the preseason will give us a much better idea of what to expect from the Cowboys' high-scoring attack in 2026. Stay tuned and consider this a resource center for any meaningful developments.

Notable Dallas Cowboys training camp battles with a fantasy impact
Is there room for a third wideout to emerge à la third-year pro Ryan Flournoy, who's garnering buzz and gaining confidence? Will Williams enjoy a similar monopoly on the backfield, or does one of Jaydon Blue, Phil Mafah or Malik Davis emerge as a change-of-pace option?
Sleepers, dynasty names and under-the-radar Cowboys players to know
Ryan Flournoy's the one worth keeping tabs on. He showed exciting upside last season in a small sample size, and his role is only expected to grow in his third year.
