Fantasy Football 2023: Negative regression candidates to avoid, including CeeDee Lamb's lower ceiling outcome
No Fantasy analyst has more accurate 2020-22 rankings than Jared Smola, who joined Beyond the Boxscore to talk 2023 Fantasy busts
I am excited about CeeDee Lamb. I am also worried about his offensive environment in 2023. The Cowboys had a potentially unsustainably high touchdown efficiency mark in 2022 even if nothing around the context of the offense changed in the offseason, but of course plenty has changed, including the team's offensive coordinator and potential its offensive philosophy.
The Cowboys' situation-neutral pace last year compared to new OC Brian Schottenheimer's history was one of the topics of a recent Beyond the Boxscore conversation with Draft Sharks Fantasy football analyst Jared Smola. According to FantasyPros, no Fantasy analyst has provided more accurate rankings across the 2020-22 seasons than Smola.

The conversation with Smola was an enlightening one that highlighted several players with mispriced average draft positions following an outlier outcome in the big play department in 2022. In addition to what to make of 2023 expectations for Lamb and the Dallas Cowboys, we covered the Denver Broncos and Cleveland Browns, as well as specific analysis on several players who are worth either targeting or avoiding based on expected regression.
