The source disagrees with their own quantitative projection that assigns Cortland Sutton the same number of targets as Jalen Waddle, stating it would be legitimately surprising if they saw equal volume.NegativeUsageSep 2, 2026

Applepay targets Cortland Sutton in middle-round drafts, noting his consistent production as a WR12 last year with 1,000 yards and 7-8 touchdowns.

Cortland Sutton represents great value at pick 98, significantly lower than his 70 ADP, providing a strong option even without a stack.PositiveRoleJul 15, 2026
Has a very defined role with some transition going on in play-calling and offensive coordinator changes, with Bo Nix coming back from injury—presenting some concerns compared to Jalen Waddle's versatility.NegativeRoleJul 9, 2026
Sutton has come to terms with the fact that he will have less targets and less opportunity this year to score fantasy points and touchdowns. The downstream effect of the Broncos trading for Jalen Waddle is that his days as a top-36 fantasy receiver are probably over.NegativeValueJun 8, 2026
One of only two wide receivers drafted by a high-stakes player (Renegades) in the first 11 rounds, resulting in a poorly graded team.PositiveRoleNo date
Expected to receive more red zone targets in Denver's offense following the Waddle addition, positioning him as the primary beneficiary of increased scoring opportunities in the passing game.PositiveRoleNo date
Sutton is one of the two top receivers who will never leave the field in Denver's offense alongside Jalen Waddle; he's expected to be a primary target with explosive play potential (20+ yard plays), and defenses will have to allocate significant coverage resources to stop him.PositiveRoleNo date
Cortland Sutton will coexist well with Jalen Waddle in the Broncos passing game. Cody Roark notes that Sutton is one of the better contested jump ball situation guys in the league and will continue to see bracket coverage and safety help on key passing downs. Roark expects Sutton's role to remain strong, with the addition of Waddle forcing defenses to pick their poison between the two receivers. Roark notes that Sutton and Waddle will each carry a $27-28 million salary cap hit next year, indicating their importance to the offense.NegativeRoleNo date
Jim Coventry notes that Cortland Sutton remains on the outside and will command some attention in Denver, but the Broncos' acquisition of Jalen Waddle signals they want to feature a catch-and-run receiver in the middle of the field. Sutton is good at what he does, but what he does is not necessarily the best fit for Sean Payton's offense. Payton was even considering trading Sutton a couple years ago, indicating he was not the best fit.
