Scouting report

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. New York Giants

Dak Prescott has been on a fantasy tear in the last few weeks. He scored 28.4 fantasy points in Week 9, the second most of any quarterback last week, and his average points per game is now up to 17.5. This is good for QB13 this season.

On paper, the New York Giants have been quite stiff opposition for fantasy quarterbacks this season, ranking eighth in aFPA to the position. But the team is circling the drain, and given his hot recent form we shouldn't discount Prescott's fantasy appeal this week. Look to him for solid mid-level QB1 numbers in Week 10.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Philadelphia Eagles

Dak Prescott has emerged as something of a fantasy stud over the last two Cowboys games, averaging 26.5 fantasy points in each. He managed 28.1 against the Rams, thanks largely to Prescott’s first 300-yard game of the season, as well as four touchdown passes.

Prescott is in a sweet spot in his bid to continue his return to fantasy relevance in Week 9 in an NFC East shootout with the Eagles, who have bled fantasy points to quarterbacks so far this year. The Eagles rank dead last in aFPA to the position, keeping Prescott firmly in the QB1 conversation this week.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Los Angeles Rams

The Cowboys are 4-2 but have managed to achieve this lofty rank without any players really achieving fantasy superstardom so far in 2023. This is especially true of Dak Prescott, who sits at QB21 in fantasy points per game this season.

He might be able to make some fantasy noise in Week 8 against the Rams, who rank 21st in aFPA to quarterbacks this season. It's possible Prescott could flirt with low-end QB1 numbers in Week 8, building on his overall QB1 showing in Week 6.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at. Los Angeles Chargers

Week 5 was a tough day at the office for Dak Prescott and the Cowboys. Prescott completed just 14 of his 24 pass attempts for 153 yards and a touchdown, also tossing three interceptions. Prescott managed 4.3 fantasy points, a tally exceeded by 28 quarterbacks. Prescott averages 11.8 fantasy points per game in 2023, good for QB24.

Week 6 presents an ideal spot for Prescott to break out of his fantasy doldrums as the Cowboys take on the Chargers. Brandon Staley's charges rank 30th in aFPA to quarterbacks in 2023. Still, it's hard to see Prescott as anything above a high-end QB2, given his prior form.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at San Francisco 49ers

Another week, another game in which Dak Prescott produced practically nothing of note in fantasy football circles. The Cowboys quarterback was efficient, completing 28 of his 34 attempts, but his 261 yards contained just one touchdown pass. The days of Prescott as a runner seem all but over. Prescott was the QB17 and is the QB22 in fantasy points per game this year.

Prescott faces a fairly middle-of-the-road opponent in the 49ers this week, at least according to aFPA. The 49ers rank 15th in that regard in 2023. Still, Prescott just fails to truly excite the expectant fantasy manager these days and should be viewed as a low-end QB2 in Week 5.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. New England Patriots

It was another middling performance from Dak Prescott against the Cardinals in Week 3. Prescott amassed 249 yards and a touchdown while throwing a pick, and added 24 yards on three rushing attempts. Prescott earned 14.4 Half PPR points per his efforts, finishing as the QB19 for the week, Through three weeks of the season, Prescott is QB20 in fantasy points per game.

It doesn't look good for Week 4 to be the week that Prescott breaks out of his fantasy fun. The Patriots rank 1st in aFPA to quarterbacks in 2023, making Prescott a low-upside QB2 option this week.

DAL QB Dak Prescott - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 at Arizona Cardinals

The Dallas Cowboys continued their hot start to the season in Week 2, thanks to an efficient fantasy performance from Dak Prescott. Prescott completed 31 of 38 attempts for 255 yards and tossed a pair of touchdowns on his way to 19.6 Half PPR points. Prescott finished as the QB17 last week, and through two weeks he is the QB25 in Half PPR scoring.

Prescott should be able to put up low-end QB1 numbers against the Cardinals in Week 3. The matchup with the Cardinals is the 12th best among quarterbacks this week.
