Not a contender's roster, not a doormat's — the story is in the details below. The face of it is CeeDee Lamb (WR, 96).

CeeDee Lamb (WR, 96) is the headliner. 97 release — beats press at the line before the route even starts; 96 short route running — wins underneath with his feet, all suddenness and leverage; 96 catching — hands you never worry about. Game-planning against this team starts with him and works backward.

Dak Prescott (91) at quarterback is a strength in his own right — the ball gets where the play says it should. Two receivers at 88+ — CeeDee Lamb (96) and George Pickens (88) — puts this team in a club of only 3 in the league; you cannot double both. Fine print — Dak Prescott: his hamstring tore off the bone in 2024 and cost him the final nine games — the comeback since has been complete.

Quinnen Williams (DT, 91) sets the terms. 94 strength — immovable when he anchors; 89 block shedding — sheds blocks like they are optional. He is the problem the other sideline has to solve first.

The back end (81.4 average) is the strength and the front (78.1) is ordinary — this defense wins by making quarterbacks hold the ball, then covering long enough for average rushers to arrive.

Brandon Aubrey (86) kicks — 99 leg, 95 accuracy, one of the better specialists in the game. Bryan Anger (79) punts — 92 leg, 87 accuracy. The return game has a genuine weapon: KaVontae Turpin (95 return, 97 speed).

Offense: KaVontae Turpin (WR, 76 OVR) — a 97 speed buried at 76 overall. Speed is the one trait that plays at any overall — it travels to any package, any formation, any Sunday.

Defense: Ameer Speed (CB, 65 OVR). Read the ratings page twice: the overall says 65, the speed says 95. Overall is about the whole job; that speed is about one job, and he can already do that one as well as most starters.
