From the episode

I think that the upside case is definitely there with Waddle this year... I think that you could easily argue him all the way up into that top of the like third round tier.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Waddle is a high-upside target in Denver who is currently undervalued by the market.

JJ Zachariason is high on Jalen Waddle following his move to Denver, noting the Broncos' offense is more pass-friendly than Miami's. Waddle is expected to play the 'Z' role, which previously saw Troy Franklin earn high target volume. Zachariason considers Waddle the best talent on the Broncos and argues he should be drafted in the third-round tier of wide receivers, despite his current ADP of WR20 or later.
