WR Jaylen Waddle Rookie Highlights
- Thread starter DOLFANMIKE
- Start date
Nobody can tell me, especially if they watch those clips, that Tua has a noodle-arm. Plenty for the NFL…and I’m sure he was ecstatic when they drafted Waddle. Kid came in and immediately made an impact…seems we don’t “normally” get that from rookies. Can’t wait to watch Waddle this year.

love to see two 100 reception seasons from waddle and Hill...I can't think of two better options to get the ball to. I mean sure gesicki and wilson will get some touches but man, I would really like to focus on touches for those two in a inordinate fashion.

Agree. Opposing D's will IMO focus on Waddle & Hill which opens things up for Gesicki, Cedrick, Mostert, Edmonds, etc...
The question that remains is.... How will McD scheme and adapt?

Waddle is going to be a beast. He is just such a smooth route runner and a crazy athlete on top of it. Every DC knew Waddle was the one to stop, yet kid still got open and caught over 100 catches. I get that his YAC was lower for a guy with his speed but he was basically doubled or bracketed or had a safety shadow all year. Last year it was which WR to give safety help to Waddle or Hollins? This year with Hill and Wilson, Waddle will break some big ones for sure.

that's the good ****
How does a DC comfortably run single-high safety against these guys?
Unless you have our corners...still...even then.
It's going to be a "pick your poison" situation for them if everyone is on the same page with their reads, and our running game is good enough that they can't cheat.
Of course as many have said, it all breaks down if the Oline is crap. I really do not see that as likely though.
Exactly.
Also, Hill is a great compliment to Waddle if the O line does break down.
Both WRS can be lethal on a 2 yard dump off. So even if Tua needs to quickly get rid of it, he now has 2 options who can take a 1 yard pass and turn it to a 50 yard gain.
This is why it's perfect for the PHINZ.
If defenses take away the Deep ball, Miami can short pass them into submissio.
If defenses choose to stop the short game, which they were unsuccessful last year, Tua can pick a guy and let it fly.
Ultimately Mostert and Gesicki will be huge benefactors of this IMO
Fin Loco posted this on its own thread and I loved it. It's a perfect fit here on Waddle's highlights.
I think Waddle is going to have a huge season.

I love Waddle. I know everyone always compared him to Hill, but I see him a little different. Hill is built like a RB and will probably always be the better runner once the ball is in his hands. But Waddle is the more savy route runner.
I see a lot of Marvin Harrison is Waddle. He just seems to have an unbelievable feel about his routes. Knows where to go, knows when to go fast or slow down. As a rookie every team knew he was the one threat Miami had, they double teamed him, bracketed him, shadowed him with safety help and he still got open. Now with Hill teams can't just game plan for Waddle alone. I think Waddle will be scary good.
Yes! I think Waddle's numbers will be close to Hill's numbers, and the first half of the season I won't be surprised to see Waddle in the top 5 WR's stats wise on TD's, yards, RAC, or catches.
