Quarterback: Dak Prescott
Grade A+: Dak has been incredibly precise this season so far. In his 10th year with the Dallas Cowboys, he stands second in the NFL in passing yards and touchdowns, boasting 1,881 passing yards and 16 touchdowns, while leading in QB rating. He has achieved a career-best passing completion rate of 71.4%. As reported by Mike Leslie, Dak Prescott is projected to reach 4,610 passing yards, 34 touchdowns, and 10 interceptions in 2025.
Running Back: Javonte Williams, Jayden Blue, and Miles Sanders (out for the season)
Grade B+: Javonte Williams has exceeded expectations, emerging as the clear lead RB with 592 rushing yards (second in the NFL) and six touchdowns (third). His consistency, vision, physicality, and versatility as a receiver and pass blocker make him a standout performer.
However, the RB room earns a B+ grade due to the lack of a consistent RB2—Sanders showed flashes before his injury, and Blue, who’s recently stepped into the role, is still developing despite a promising 4.1 yards per carry last week.
WR: CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens, Kavonte Turpin, Jalen Tolbert, and Ryan Flournoy
Grade A: The addition of Pickens has transformed the passing game, forming one of the league’s top receiver duos with Lamb. Pickens ranks fourth in receiving yards (607) and second in touchdowns (six), while Lamb, despite missing three weeks, has 21 catches for 332 yards and a score.
Turpin adds versatility as a returner and motion threat, while Flournoy and Tolbert stepped up in his and Lamb’s absence—Flournoy posting 114 yards against the Jets and Tolbert showing improved route running. Overall, Pickens’ arrival has elevated this group into one of the NFL’s premier wide receiver units.
TE: Jake Ferguson, Breyvn Spann-Ford, and Luke Schoonmaker
Grade B: Ferguson is enjoying an underrated season following last year's struggles with a knee injury that plagued him for most of the time. This year, he has become Dak's reliable safety net and third receiving option. He has already achieved a career-high in touchdowns, reaching six. Currently, he ranks second in the league for both receptions and receiving touchdowns, boasting 51 catches, 334 receiving yards, and six touchdowns.
Following him is last year's undrafted free agent from the University of Minnesota, Breyvn Spann-Ford, who has proven to be quite effective as a run blocker, aiding in creating openings for the run game. Meanwhile, Schoonmaker offers a similar level of familiarity as a blocker.
OL: Tyler Guyton, Tyler Smith, Cooper Bebe, Tyler Booker, Terence Steele, Nate Thomas, Brock Hoffman, and TJ Bass
Grade A: Due to early injuries sustained by Cooper Bebe, Tyler Guyton, and Tyler Booker this season, Nate Thomas, TJ Bass, and Brock Hoffman stepped up to maintain performance under the guidance of OL coach Connor Riley and OC Klayton Adams. The offensive line has proven to be an absolute powerhouse.
The offense is generating impressive totals in yards per game and ranks as the second-highest-scoring team in the league. They are also positioned second in passing offense, boasting a completion rate of 71.21% and averaging 268.4 passing yards per game. Additionally, they hold the third spot in rushing offense, with an average of 4.9 yards per attempt. None of this would be possible without the strong presence of the big guys up front.
