On the downside, he wasn't very good last year. He was targeted on 16 percent of his routes and averaged a measly 1.2 yards per route run. Juwan Johnson operated as the team's de facto WR2 and was quite successful, finishing as the TE8.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Vele's rise to Saints WR2 offset by poor 2025 production (1.2 YPRR, 16% target rate).

Vele is rising 30 ADP spots as the Saints' No. 2 receiver while Jordyn Tyson recovers from injury (expected Week 9 return). However, Tyson notes Vele wasn't very good last year, targeted on only 16% of routes and averaging 1.2 yards per route run. Juwan Johnson, who operated as the de facto WR2, was more successful (TE8 finish) and should be the bigger mover.
