Waddle has a fresh start in Denver following an offseason trade, giving him an immediate role as a featured weapon for Bo Nix in a pass-heavy offense where playing alongside Courtland Sutton will help open up single coverage. Waddle has the talent and opportunity to be a much more productive fantasy wide receiver than his ranking suggests.
Matt Waldman
Waddle offers primary WR1 talent to a Broncos scheme that was trying to get portions of Waddle's skills at a developmental discount when they drafted Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin.
Now that they got the real deal, Waddle will likely lead this team in targets and yardage. He's also a good red-zone option on quick-hitting throws and scramble drills. Look for Waddle to join Courtland Sutton and Evan Engram as a formidable receiving unit that opens the field for big plays not only for each other, but for Franklin and Mims on occasion.

Waddle finished last season as the fantasy WR23 in PPR formats, a significant rebound from his WR49 finish the year before, both in a broken Miami offense. He signed with Denver, the league's pass-happiest offense last season. Volume should be there for Waddle, but he's now three years removed from those elite first two seasons and will turn 28 this year. Ceiling is likely a mid- to low-WR2 for the next couple of seasons; floor is a high-end WR4.

More 1-on-1 coverage for Courtland Sutton?
Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton could benefit from more one-on-one matchups thanks to the addition of WR Jaylen Waddle, while TE Evan Engram also is in the mix to stretch defenses. 'Courtland is an elite playmaker, so anytime you have a playmaker on the other side of you, it just makes it easy,' Waddle said. 'It's someone that the defense has to be looking for, and vice versa.'
Pleased with Jaylen Waddle so far
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle has impressed head coach Sean Payton and the coaching staff since being acquired from the Miami Dolphins. 'He's someone who picks things up real quick,' Payton said in June. 'You can just feel his instincts, his quickness and his ability to not only run fast but stop fast. So, he's doing well.' Payton added that catering to each receiver's unique skill set will be critical in 2026.
Jaylen Waddle showing versatility
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle has been involved in the passing game at all levels of the field during minicamp, according to Jeff Legwold of ESPN.com.
Jaylen Waddle disguises routes well
Denver Broncos WR Jaylen Waddle is fitting in with his new team, and drawing praise from the coaching staff and teammates for his quick starting and stopping, and for his route running. 'I think his ability to make every route look the same is pretty important,' S Talanoa Hufanga said. 'As a defender, when you can make a 10-yard stop look like a go, a 10-yard dig (route) look like a go, a 10-yard out-route -- it's just, everything looks the same. And it puts pressure on your backpedal, as a DB.'
