With a fully -healthy Dak Prescott lining up alongside WR CeeDee Lamb, newly acquired WR George Pickens, and TE Jake Ferguson — arguably the best running buddies the veteran QB has ever had — fantasy football players have crazy-high expectations for the 2025 Dallas Cowboys passing offense.
GM/overlord Jerry Jones managed to put together what the team hopes will be a three-headed monster backfield of RB Javonte Wiliams, RB Miles Sanders, and rookie RB Jaydon Blue to make up for the loss of Dowdle.
That's what they hope. That might not be what they get.
The revamped offense has us asking, will Prescott stay healthy and get back to his All-Pro form, and will the wide receiver trio live up to the hype. And who are the viable fantasy options heading into the season?
You’re going to want to use these Cowboys fantasy football predictions to make your NFLSZN predictions on PrizePicks picks for your Lineup. If Dak brings it, you might cash in if your picks by choosing More or Less on his projectect season-long stats.
Dallas Cowboys Fantasy Football Predictions
Here are the top Dallas Cowboys players to target and avoid in your fantasy football drafts in 2025, and in the NFLSZN game on PrizePicks.
Target: TE Jake Ferguson
2025 ADP: 132 (TE14) via Fantasy Pros
Much like the entire Cowboys' 2024 offense, Ferguson was plagued with injuries that killed last season's fantasy stats, as he finished his year with 59 receptions, 494, and exactly zero TDs. Now healthy, Ferguson has a chance to make it up to his dynasty fantasy owners.
The University of Wisconsin product has always had a great rapport with Prescott, and with both aiming for bounce-back seasons, there's a chance he could replicate his 2023, when he finished the year as a top-10 fantasy tight end.

- 550.5 Receiving Yards

Avoid: RB Javonte Williams
2025 ADP: 109 (RB37) via FantasyPros
The Cowboys are taking a hot-hand approach to their backfield, slapping together a running back room that's been in flux ever since the decline of Ezekiel Elliott. Even with the addition of Javonte Williams and company, it doesn’t seem like we'll be revisiting the good ol' days anytime soon.
That said, Williams is the RB1 in Dallas, despite averaging less than 3.7 yards per carry in each of the last two seasons in Denver.
Now that Brian Schottenheimer is installed as the play caller, we should see more of an air-it-out approach to accompany the hot-hand RB plan. That leaves Williams as someone to skip this fantasy football season, especially considering RBs Miles Sanders and Jaydon Blue may siphon away his reps as we get further into the season
Being in a timeshare makes Javonte a tough sell, especially at his current ADP. If I were taking anyone in this backfield, it would be Blue, given his current ADP of 137. This would make him a deep sleeper with the potential of breaking out.

Target: QB Dak Prescott
2025 ADP: 106 (QB11) via FantasyPros
Thanks to the Boys upgraded receivers room, we might just see the Dak of old... especially when one of said receivers is a gentleman named CeeDee Lamb.
Taking Prescott's improved health and supporting cast into account, he has the chance to become a league winner for fantasy football owners in 2025. In 2023, when fully healthy, Dak passed for 4,516 passing yards and 36 TDs. Last year, the Cowboys QB was on pace for 4,638 yards and 26 TDs halfway through the season.
Also, with the Cowboys' defense looking like a potential problem — paging Micah Parsons — Prescott may need to air it out to keep the team competitive. With his current ADP of 105, he's a QB you'll want to grab late in your draft.
Dak Prescott Fantasy Football Projections
- 3,875.5 Passing Yards
- 26.5 Passing TDs
- 1.5 Rushing TDs
- 4.5 Games 300+ Passing Yards
- 10.5 Passings INTs
