Jaylen Waddle News

Jaylen Waddle the Top Receiver to Roster in Denver?

Saturday, May 30, 5:12 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Jaylen Waddle's dynasty stock is trending up after an offseason trade that put him in a stronger offense and paired him with a more talented quarterback. Waddle was traded from the Dolphins to the Broncos, and while he will face some competition for targets from Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin, this is a much better scenario for the Alabama product and his skill set. He projects as the No. 1 receiver in an upward-trending offense led by talented quarterback Bo Nix. Waddle's upside was limited for several years in Miami due to the inconsistent play of Tua Tagovailoa, but Nix offers him a very strong chance to post more than 1,015 yards for just the second time in his career. In addition to projecting as a high-volume receiver with high yardage totals, he should remain a solid weapon around the goal line, giving him touchdown upside in fantasy football. Despite finishing as the WR24 or lower in each of his last three seasons, Waddle's trade gives him top-15 receiver upside in dynasty fantasy football leagues. He's a very intriguing buy-low target for managers this offseason.

Zay Flowers News

A New-Look Offense in Baltimore Could Impact Zay Flowers' Dynasty Value

Sunday, May 31, 8:25 AM

Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers reached WR7 in half-PPR fantasy formats by dominating Baltimore's wide receiver target share in 2025. His 118 targets accounted for 55.9% of all passes thrown to Ravens wideouts, with DeAndre Hopkins' 39 putting him at a distant second. Baltimore was the only team in the league to run more plays out of 12-personnel than 11, with Flowers the sole staple in those two-receiver sets. With a coaching overhaul ahead of the 2026 season and the team spending third and fourth-round picks on receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt, Flowers could see a target share dip that would be hard to overcome with his consistently low touchdown numbers. While not responsible for playcalling under Ben Johnson, new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle held the same title in Chicago, where the Bears deployed three-receiver sets at the league's seventh-highest rate in 2025. Flowers still profiles as the unquestioned top receiver in Baltimore, and he could benefit from an overall higher passing volume, but enough factors are working against him to keep him at RotoBaller's dynasty WR26 despite coming off a career year.
