PositiveRoleJul 27, 2026
Sutton projects as the X receiver alongside newly acquired Jaylen Waddle; both are expected to run the most routes when healthy in two-wide packages (12 and 21 personnel), potentially ending Sean Payton's frustrating WR rotations.NegativeRoleJul 23, 2026
Sutton is not expected to be demoted in Denver's offense following the acquisition of Jaylen Waddle. He remains a core part of the Broncos' receiving corps, with limited WR3 snaps available for the competition between Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant.NegativeProjectionJul 21, 2026
Deserves credit for working as fantasy WR21 on per-game basis during last two seasons, but age (31 in October) is beginning to be concern. Jaylen Waddle appears poised to take lead in Bo Nix-led passing attack. Ranked WR40.NegativeValueJul 7, 2026
Despite two excellent seasons averaging 78 catches, 1,049 yards, and 7.5 TDs, Sutton's role is at risk. In Weeks 7-11 last year, Denver experimented with Troy Franklin as the lead receiver, and Sutton averaged just 10.1 PPR points during that stretch. Though Franklin's experiment failed and Sutton rebounded to 16.5 PPR points in the next five games, the acquisition of Jaylen Waddle signals a return to the Weeks 7-11 downgrade scenario for a full season. At age 31, Sutton at WR36 ADP is tough to draft.
