Fantasy Football 2021: 3 Rookie breakouts, 3 busts
2) Jaylen Waddle WR/Miami Dolphins ADP 13.06
Jaylen Waddle is a victim of situation. I believe in the talent, but I do not believe in Tua.
Now, should the Dolphins go and trade for Aaron Rodgers (hint, hint Miami) you’ll see me buying all the stock of Waddle I can. However, with Tua owning one of the weaker throwing arms in the NFL you wonder how this is going to work with Waddle, add onto that the already looming presences of Davante Parker, Mike Gesicki, and Will Fuller, this doesn’t seem like the right fit for Waddle.
I felt like this was a strange pick in the draft and my feelings haven’t changed as the team seems committed to Tua. Draft him, stash him, hope for the best. Put him in and hope he takes a bubble screen 75 yards to the house.
Just don’t expect him to do much more than fill space during bye weeks this season.
