Cam Skattebo
vs Jaylen Waddle

“Cam Skattebo is getting nearly every touch in this backfield, with 46 more touches this season than Najee Harris , the Giants’ No. 2 RB. We haven’t seen much touchdown luck yet, and that total will likely remain relatively low in this offense.”

“Cam Skattebo is the top option and veteran RB Najee Harris has ascended to the No. 2 role. Tracy has kept a spot on the active roster because he can contribute as a kickoff returner but he’s had just one touch each of the past two weeks. He’s still on a rookie contract and has flashed some explosiveness as a rusher and receiver his first two years.”

“If Jeanty struggles against the Dolphins, it will be a long season once again for Jeanty owners.” – Muntradamus ( Beast Dome ) Cam Skattebo (RB – NYG) “I don’t know about “likely” to disappoint, but there’s certainly a chance that Cam Skattebo could leave his investors wanting for more.”

“Skattebo was a highlight from the group of New York backs in 2025, turning 125 touches into 617 yards and 7 touchdowns in his eight appearances. Skattebo had the best rushing success rate (39.6%) of the backs, compared to a 37% rate for Devin Singletary and a 31.8% rate for Tyrone Tracy.”

“Everyone hopes that Skattebo can stay healthy after missing over half is rookie season with a gruesome ankle injury. Yet, the star running back recently said he won’t change his playing style.”

“Obviously, for this to happen, Cam Skattebo would need to avoid the injury bug and play a full season. Tough ask with his running style. But when he was on the field, he showed elite metrics.”

“When given an opportunity to handle the early-down work for Big Blue last season, Skattebo finished as an RB1 in three of five weeks. Not only does he have a nose for the end zone and constantly runs through arm tackles, he is also an adept receiver, and one of Jaxson Dart ‘s best friends.”

“Jaylen Waddle was the prince who was promised to solve all of Denver’s offensive issues and to finally be the joker that Sean Payton craved for the Broncos. Unfortunately, over four games, he has as many weekly finishes below 5.5 half-PPR points as he does above 12.0. half-PPR points While it can be frustrating to see that kind of return from Waddle, it’s abundantly clear when you look at the film and the stats that this isn’t on him.”

“This year, we have JK Dobbins swearing to the old gods and new that he will play 17 games, and a rookie RB Jonah Coleman getting rave reviews in camp (ready to step in when Dobbins does inevitably get hurt); Jaylen Waddle is exactly what this team needs offensively , offering up YAC opportunities, strong route running in the short + intermediate part of the field, and a level of improvisation with Nix that Franklin + Mimms just weren’t able to offer.”

“Waddle should get a wonderful infusion of volume this season, moving from an offense that was 29th in neutral passing rate to one that was fourth in that metric last season.”

“Now the alpha receiver for the Broncos, Waddle will bring his electric route-running to an offense that thrives upon precision and isn’t afraid to sling it. Fantasy managers can look for a spike in Waddle’s yards per route run and target rate, as Courtland Sutton draws away defensive attention downfield.”

“Jaylen Waddle (WR – DEN) “ Jaylen Waddle is one of my favorite targets this year because I think people are looking too much at last season’s final numbers and not enough at how well he actually played. He ranked 12th in targets per route run, 12th in yards per route run, and seventh in first downs per route run, so the talent and efficiency are clearly still there.”

“4.11: Jaylen Waddle (WR – DEN) Jaylen Waddle is being overlooked as he enters his first year with the Broncos. Evan Silva of Establish The Run projects him to a huge year under Sean Payton, comparing him to Brandin Cooks during his time in New Orleans.”

“Adding Jaylen Waddle is not some small improvement.”

“The arrival of Jaylen Waddle will change that this year. Sutton still can be a highly productive player in a pass-happy offense, but he’ll take a backseat to Waddle.”
