BDGE Fantasy Football on Darren Waller

VideoFinally, a Fun Waiver Wire!Captured September 30, 2026

From the video

Over the last two weeks, you have seen both facets of his game kind of pop up... he is a premier red zone weapon... he draws eight targets... I still remain skeptical of Waller's value from a seasonl long perspective because he's never cracked a 60% route rate so far this year.

Red-zone weapon but never 60% route rate; stream if Coker out.

Veteran tight end at age 34 showing dual-threat production: Week 2 included 2 touchdowns with 2 inside-the-20 targets (establishing him as a premier red-zone weapon), and Week 3 featured 8 targets showing involvement in the offense. However, the source remains skeptical of his season-long value because he has never cracked a 60% route rate this year, positioning him as a situational player rather than a consistent volume target. If Jaylen Coker (who suffered a quad injury limiting him to 17 routes in Week 3) misses Week 4, Waller gains a safer floor beyond touchdown dependency, making him a viable streaming option for that week only.
