Denver's newest 'weapon' has just one game over 35 receiving yards this season...Outside of a monster eight-catch, 138-yard performance in Week 2, Waddle has been a complete bust...At best, he's a WR4 or FLEX option in PPR leagues until we see some signs of life from this passing attack.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Waddle is a bust; only one 35+ yard game this season despite Broncos' three-pick trade.

Despite Denver trading three draft picks (including their 2026 first-rounder) to acquire Waddle, he has been a complete bust. He has just one game over 35 receiving yards this season; outside of a monster Week 2 performance (8 catches, 138 yards), his other games have yielded WR103, WR65, WR25, WR65, and WR57 finishes in PPR. The source attributes much of the problem to Bo Nix's poor play (struggling to throw downfield), but concludes Waddle is no longer a set-it-and-forget-it WR2—at best a WR4 or FLEX option until the passing attack improves.
