Waddle should receive a significant increase in volume after moving from an offense that ranked 29th in neutral passing rate to one that finished fourth in the metric last season... Waddle is one of my flag-plant players this year and can easily be drafted as a WR2 with WR1 upside.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalMatchup

Waddle's volume surge in Denver's pass-heavy offense supports WR2 with WR1 upside.

Derek Brown flags Waddle as must-have after move from Miami (29th in neutral passing rate) to Denver (4th in neutral passing rate and 4th in overall passing attempts, behind only Arizona, Cincinnati, Dallas). Among 109 qualifying WRs last year, Waddle ranked 12th in targets per route run, 12th in yards per route run, 7th in first downs per route run, 12th in separation score, 11th in route win rate. He outperformed Courtland Sutton in every category except route win rate (Sutton 15.5% vs. Waddle 15.3%). Waddle should be drafted as WR2 with WR1 upside.
