Waddle posted only 1.2 fantasy points in Week 1 but the source is more inclined to bid on him than Drake London because he plays in a much better offense that sputtered in a brutal road spot at Arrowhead. He ran 82% of routes and posted a team-high 33% target share on third/fourth downs. The source trusts the offseason drumbeat of Waddle being the fixture of the passing game with movement all over the field in an offense that will pass frequently. Week 2 matchup vs. Jacksonville should be a back-and-forth affair. Recommended bid (Average): $83 (8.3% of FAAB).

Broncos 1st read target shares in Week 1, per @​FantasyPtsData: Pat Bryant - 35.7% Evan Engram - 21.4% Jaylen Waddle - 14.3% Courtland Sutton - 14.3% Troy Franklin - 7.4% And route shares... Pat Bryant - 57.6% Evan Engram - 60.6% Jaylen Waddle - 78.8% Courtland Sutton - 69.7% Troy Franklin - 24.2% A really poor game for Denver and Bo Nix in particular, assume there's much better days ahead. I'm not taking much away from the small sample here in a weird game, other than that Pat Bryant is clea...

Thought Antonio Williams' film was really impressive in Week 1. Good routes, explosive out of breaks, and created some good separation. That offense needs more options and he definitely commanded some opportunity with his play. Reminder: I will have weekly charting notebooks on RP. Looking to post the first one today with Williams, Matthew Golden, MHJ, Waddle and more. [Retweeted](

Broncos: RBs (excluding the last 10 plays of the game where game was out of hand and rotations got mixed up): JK Dobbins: 62% opp share, 27% route share, no 2min/i10 to report RJ Harvey: 38% opp share, 46% route share Jonah Coleman didn’t see much action Dobbins left the game (no injury) early in the 4th and never returned - game was out of hand JKD willl be game script sensitive so better days ahead and plan to put him in during those easy Broncos wins, which mainly come later in the season...

I know it will feel like a cruel joke now, but @​CecilLammey brought up multiple times in the offseason that Evan Engram could be the player freed up for more production by the Jaylen Waddle trade. Don't shoot the messenger.

1 catch for 2 yards on 3 targets in Denver debut; tied for fifth on team in targets; frequently off field in 2WR sets despite being acquired via first-round trade. Dropped a pass on third down that would have been a first down. Community split on whether this is Week 1 jitters against elite KC defense or a sign of offensive coordinator Davis Webb's misuse. Multiple owners needed minimal points (2–6 pts) to win and fell just short. Concerns center on lack of involvement despite Denver's offensive struggles; if usage doesn't improve Week 2, panic warranted. Some note Waddle has history of preseason hype not translating to production.
