Has Jaylen Waddle's Redraft Stock Outpaced His True Value?

Sunday, July 5, 5:41 PM

After spending the first five seasons of his NFL career with the Miami Dolphins, wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is entering his first year with the Denver Broncos in 2026. Denver sent significant draft capital to Miami to acquire Waddle, who now projects as the team's WR1. The move from Miami to Denver should provide Waddle with a significantly improved offensive environment. However, the Broncos have several wide receivers who are capable of earning targets, including Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin, and Pat Bryant. Waddle spent most of 2025 as the clear WR1 in Miami, but he still finished the year as the WR29 in per-game PPR scoring. As the 23rd wide receiver off the board by average draft position in redraft leagues, Waddle may currently be slightly overvalued.

Zay Flowers News

Zay Flowers May Be Overvalued by Current Redraft ADP

Wednesday, June 24, 8:41 AM

Across 17 games in 2025, Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers recorded 86 receptions for 1,211 yards and five touchdowns on 118 targets. The 25-year-old was by far and away the number one wide receiver option in his team's passing game, as veteran wideout DeAndre Hopkins finished second among Ravens wideouts in targets with 39. In 2026, Flowers may no longer have such a dominant hold on the team's target share. Baltimore wide receiver Rashod Bateman should be healthier after missing four games in 2025, and the team also used mid-round picks in the 2026 draft on wide receivers Ja'Kobi Lane and Elijah Sarratt. While Flowers is an explosive threat with the ball in his hands, he's scored only 14 touchdowns across 50 career NFL games. If his target volume dips even marginally, it could be a major issue for his fantasy production. As the 16th wide receiver off the board by average draft position, Flowers may currently be overvalued in redraft formats.
