BALLER MOVE: Consider In 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Through two games of Tua Tagovailoa's return, the outlook on Jaylen Waddle has soured. It's like Skylar Thompson and Tyler Huntley are still starting.
Tyreek Hill and De'Von Achane have improved since Tagovailoa came back. Waddle has six catches for 41 yards and a touchdown in two games (granted, he lost 23 receiving yards on a last-play lateral drill against the Bills). Even with that yardage, he's averaging under 10 PPR points since the Miami offense came back to life.

In fact, Waddle hasn't reached double-digit fantasy points since Week 1. Achane's effective usage in the receiving game takes targets away from number 17.
On paper, the matchup against the Rams is perfect. Los Angeles is in the top ten for most fantasy points allowed per game to wide receivers and the matchup boasts one of the highest over/under lines (50.5) of the Week 10 slate. But, given Waddle's track record, it's difficult to trust that he'll break out of his slump.
