Darren Waller News
Darren Waller signs extension · Sep 10, 2022
The Raiders have signed tight end Darren Waller to a three-year extension worth $51 million.
Waller had a down season in 2021, posting a 55/655/2 line in 11 games, but most dynasty owners remember his back-to-back monster seasons in 2019 and 2020. The extension will keep Waller under team control for the next five seasons and pay him as one of the top tight ends in the league. There is some concern about our TE6 based on his age (29), but it's hard to argue the production when healthy. With Davante Adams in town, Waller should be able to find his spots more consistently and is poised for a bounce-back season. He remains a prime trade candidate for contenders in dynasty leagues.
Darren Waller could be traded? · Apr 26, 2022
The Raiders and Packers are said to be engaged in talks for veteran tight end Darren Waller
In his age-30 season, Waller was said to be a target of the Packers in the Davante Adams deal. The veteran tight end had a disappointing 2021, missing five games due to multiple injuries but remains one of the league's top players at the position when healthy. It's hard to imagine the Raiders would send away a top playmaker following the blockbuster deal that landed Adams, but it may simply come down to compensation. If healthy, DLFs TE6 is a good bet to remain a productive force on the end of passes from either Derek Carr or Aaron Rodgers so a trade, in this case, may make for a zero sum game. Rebuilding teams may want to send away Waller to maximize value early in the 2022 season.
