Cowboys: Madden rates CeeDee Lamb outside of the top 10 WR

The Dallas Cowboys score at a rate that's been about as good as any team over the past three seasons. It's no secret who the most credit goes to as far as wide receivers, that's the man who rocks the No.88 every game.
Lamb proceeded to look like one of the best wide receivers in 2022 with his 107 receptions, 1,359 yards, and nine touchdowns, shattering anything he's done before that. But it didn't convince some folks in the football world.
Madden released its player ratings for this year's version of the iconic gaming franchise on Monday. When it came to the top 10 receivers, surprisingly, Lamb failed to land in that group as his 90 rating was tied for 11th.
Lamb certainly has a gripe to be ranked higher.
Among all receivers last season, Lamb was tied for fifth in receptions, sixth in receiving yards, and tied for the fourth-most touchdowns catches. Keep in mind, quarterback Dak Prescott missed five games with a fractured thumb last season.
When Lamb was on the field with Prescott the combination put together five 100-yard games and seven touchdowns in the regular season. In the playoffs, Lamb scored a touchdown against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and hauled in 10 passes for over 100 yards versus the San Francisco 49ers, finishing with a 92.5-yard per game average in the postseason.
Lamb has done more than enough to belong in a top 10 ranking for basically any receiver-related list there is, and it's time everyone treated him as such.

He’s elite when it comes to this.
