Jaylen Waddle is another player who disappointed in 2024. A rebound season looks difficult given the team situation

Hard to trust the Dolphins offense after 2024 derailment, but we know his upside far exceeds the current ADP.

Jonnu Smith's departure ensures Waddle will go back to being a focal point of Miami's offense.

Waddle could lose just enough targets to Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Jonnu Smith that it limits his yardage and red-zone ceilings. If he hits those ceilings, Waddle could easily be a strong fantasy WR2. If not,  he's in WR3 territory. 

If Smith gets traded, I'll bump Waddle's value because Westbrook-Ikhine and Tagovailoa won't have the same rapport and history as Tagovailoa and Waddle.

He has been good at football his entire collegiate and NFL career when healthy. He caught 45 passes for 848 yards and 7 touchdowns as a freshman at Alabama and caught 104 passes for 1,015 yards and 6 touchdowns as an NFL rookie. He projects to bounce back this season now that Jonnu Smith has been traded.
