The Dallas Cowboys just selected Lamb with the No. 17 pick in the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft.

The Richland, Texas native came to Oklahoma in 2017 as a four-star prospect. Lamb made an immediate impact his freshman season with 807 yards breaking the school’s freshman receiving yards record while hauling in seven touchdowns. Opposite Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown for the 2017 and 2018 seasons the duo were one of the best dual-threats in the nation while catching passes from Heisman Trophy winners Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray.

In 2019, Lamb led the Sooners in receiving with 62 receptions, 1,327 yards, and 14 touchdowns, good for a Big 12 best in receiving yards and receiving touchdowns.

Lamb finished his career at Oklahoma with plenty of accolades including being named a Consensus All-American in 2019, First Team All-Big 12 in 2019, Second Team All-Big 12 in 2018, and an ESPN Freshman All-American in 2017.

Lamb is the highest-drafted Sooner wideout since former corps mate Marquise Brown in 2019 who was taken No. 25 overall by the Baltimore Ravens.
