George Pickens hauled in six of 11 targets for a team-high 73 yards on his way to 13.3 PPR points in the Cowboys’ Week 6 loss to the Packers. He’s now accounted for 70 receiving yards in each of the past four weeks, averaging 90.0 receiving yards per game over that span to hold the fourth-highest mark among WRs.

Pickens turned his 21.1% target share in Week 6, which ranks 28th among WRs pending Monday Night Football, into the 11th-most targets with 11 thanks to QB Dak Prescott throwing a season-high 54 pass attempts.
The Cowboys aren’t afraid to do that, as indicated by their 63.2% neutral pass rate, which ranks fourth among all offenses. Which has resulted in a 41 pass attempts per game mark that ranks second.
While Pickens has been the second-most targeted in this offense with a 22.0% target share trailing WR CeeDee Lamb, the high-volume passing offense keeps him around WR1 range over the remainder of the season.
Especially facing an Eagles defense in Week 7 that’s allowed the fifth-most points to WRs.
