    Fantasy football: Where to draft Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott

    By Seth Orlemann,

    14 hours ago

    Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott has been impressive in 6 NFL seasons. The 4th-round pick in the 2016 NFL Draft was the Offensive Rookie of the Year that season and has been selected to 3 Pro Bowls. Below, we look at Dak Prescott’s 2024 fantasy football average draft position (ADP) and where you should draft him.

    Prescott is expected to continue his dominant play in 2024 and cement his name as one of the top QBs in the league. The dual-threat signal-caller is intriguing in terms of fantasy value.

    (ADP data courtesy of MyFantasyLeague.com ; last updated at time of this publishing – ADPs continually change as more drafts occur)

    Prescott has an ADP of 60.16 in redraft leagues, which puts him in the range of the fifth to seventh round, depending on the size of the league.

    Among quarterbacks, Prescott’s ADP puts him 8th at the position, behind the likes of Anthony Richardson (Indianapolis Colts, 55.14), Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals, 53.34), C.J. Stroud (Houston Texans, 46.86) and Lamar Jackson (Baltimore Ravens, 35.42).

    Where should you draft Prescott?

    Those who draft Prescott should see similar figures to his stats of last year. While the Cowboys lost RB Tony Pollard in the offseason, RB Ezekiel Elliott returned which will help fill Pollard’s absence. Dallas also just signed WR CeeDee Lamb to a 4-year extension which will also bolster Prescott’s stats.

    Prescott becomes a solid fantasy option when including his dual-threat abilities as well. His tendency to escape the pocket and pick up yards with his legs adds points to his fantasy owner’s team. That, combined with minimal interceptions, will make Prescott a solid pickup at QB.

    Draft Prescott as early as the 4th round, but certainly don’t let him fall out of the 6th or 7th round in 10-team leagues. When healthy, he’s good for 4,400+ yards and 35+ TDs.
