Cowboys Beat: Jason Witten's numbers could drop

Dallas bear writer Brandon George answered a question about TE Jason Witten:

Question - How much longer can Jason Witten be an every-down tight end? Do you think Gavin Escobar the long-term answer?

Brandon George: Hard to say if Escobar is the long-term answer based on his rookie season. He only had 9 catches last year, so he has a lot to still prove. Witten definitely has a few more strong years in him. He doesn't appear to be declining yet. I do think Witten's numbers will be down this season because they go with more screen passes and use Escobar more.

Fantasy Impact: 

It's an interesting observation, albeit not a great one for owners. It's something to take note of early in the season if this becomes a trend. Owners may be able to use Witten in a deal to upgrade at the position, though there is the thinking that a much improved offensive line should allow Witten to run more pass routes, which would result in an improvement in his numbers.

Cowboys TE Gavin Escobar’s greatest strength is his pass-catching ability. And at 6-6, he gives quarterbacks a big target.

Cowboys offensive play-caller Scott Linehan is trying different ways to get last year’s second-round pick involved in the passing game. During training camp practices, Escobar has often lined up out wide.

But don’t expect him to follow in Jimmy Graham’s footsteps and make a case that he’s a wide receiver.

Fantasy Impact: 

Escobar isn't going to get drafted in typical leagues but it sounds like he has all the right tools to be a pass-catching threat. With Jason Witten around, he'll have to wait his turn...

With Miles Austin now in Cleveland, Cowboys WR Terrance Williams should see an even greater amount of opportunities with Scott Linehan calling plays. Williams says he isn’t feeling any pressure to be Austin, a two-time Pro Bowler.

Fantasy Impact: 

When Austin was out last year, Williams put up high-end WR2 numbers. This year he comes in ranked 30th making him a low-end WR2, high end WR3. He really has a chance to produce in a pass-heavy Dallas offense as defenses will look to focus on TE Jason Witten and WR Dez Bryant.

Cowboys WR Terrance Williams showed last year the game isn't too big for him. He was able to make big plays in big moments.

With Dez Bryant on the other side and Jason Witten expected to line up mostly on his side, Williams will have the chance to make plays. Tony Romo will not be afraid to come after him. Some believe he will be a breakout player on this offense in part because of the attention Bryant and Witten will receive.

He doesn't have great speed, but he still averaged 16.7 yards per catch. When he gets rolling, he is difficult to stop. He has the tools to be a 1,000-yard receiver, but he doesn't need to have 1,000 yards for the offense to be successful.

Fantasy Impact: 

The WR2 spot looks like it's Williams' to lose. He was impressive last year, especially when Miles Austin was injured, putting up #12 WR numbers from Weeks 4-10 until Austin returned. We rank him 32nd and project him for just under 1,000 yards. His ADP is the 9th round and we think he's at least high-end WR3 material. Rookie Devin Street is the team's only other true outside WR.
