Waddle

Waddle’s per-play metrics improved from 2022-23, leading to the fifth-highest receiving grade among wide receivers last season. The only problem is he missed a few games and significant time in others due to injury. He missed Week 3 due to a concussion and the last two weeks of the regular season due to an ankle injury.

Waddle has been a clear lead receiver when healthy. His primary competition is Tyreek Hill, which makes Waddle the league's best No. 2 wide receiver. Hill probably limits Waddle’s ability to finish as a top-five fantasy wide receiver. Waddle deserves a target share closer to 30% based on his talent, but it will probably stay around 24% as long as Hill doesn’t decline. Waddle finished top 10 in 2022, and his fantasy points per game probably would have been similar this year had it not been for the injuries.

Waddle has the talent to be a potential first-round fantasy pick, but his constant injuries from last season along with being the second priority pushes his ADP down two rounds. A top-five season is possible if he outperforms Tyreek Hill and stays healthy, but there is also a chance he doesn’t stay healthy and we get another season like last year.
