Darren Waller Could Score More Touchdowns
2 years agoLas Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller might face a slight drop-off in targets and yards with receiver Davante Adams now in the picture in 2022, but Waller should more than make up for it with an increase in touchdowns. He had only 14 touchdowns in the last three years combined, but he has said that new head coach Josh McDaniels has a plan for him in the red zone. The 29-year-old's fantasy stock as an elite TE1 has taken a hit with the addition of Adams and the fact that Waller fell back down to Earth in 2021 when he played in just 11 regular season games. But Waller should still be considered a top-five fantasy tight end and could come at a nice value in upcoming drafts. Adams will draw plenty of attention from opposing defenses, which should allow Waller more space, especially in the red zone.
