5 years agoOakland Raiders tight end Darren Waller hasn't stopped receiving praise from the coaching staff since organized team activities in June as he continues to impress in the preseason. The rest of the football world also took notice in the latest episode of "Hard Knocks," which highlighted some of the 27-year-old's grabs as well as a surge of compliments from players and staff. As a former receiver in college, Waller has the potential to shine as a pass-catcher this season, filling the void left by Jared Cook this offseason. The 6-foot-6, 255-pounder won't see the immense volume left behind by Cook, but he could turn into a valuable weapon as one of the team's top red-zone threats and a reliable set of hands to throw to on third down. Waller's stock is only going up, but his stock remains in the late rounds of drafts as a flier at fantasy's thinnest position.--Riley Mrack - RotoBaller
