Jaylen Waddle experienced some regression in 2023 after a breakout season in 2022, yet he still managed to catch 72 passes for 1,014 yards in just 14 games. His 14.2 fantasy points per game placed him as a mid-range WR2 on a per-game basis, despite finishing the season with only four touchdowns. As the WR2 in the Dolphins' offense, Waddle maintained a strong presence, garnering over 23 percent of the team's total targets for the season even though he missed three games.
While Waddle will likely remain behind Tyreek Hill in the target hierarchy, he still possesses considerable upside along with a solid floor as a WR2. There's also some hidden upside as in the one game Hill missed in 2023, Waddle showcased his potential as the primary receiver by making a season-high eight receptions for 142 yards against a formidable Jets defense. This performance hinted at his ability to deliver explosive results, especially if the game had been more competitive.
Waddle is currently being selected in the fourth round of many drafts, often behind players who have never approached the ceiling he demonstrated in 2022, or players who have considerably lower floors. With a nearly guaranteed 20 percent target share and the potential for 25 to 27 percent in one of the league's most efficient offenses, Waddle presents significant value. If he slips in your fantasy drafts, he could be an excellent pick, offering both consistency and the potential for high-end production.
