Cedric Tillman vs Jaylen Waddle: The Full Breakdown
If you are choosing between Cedric Tillman and Jaylen Waddle for your lineup, you are not alone. Cedric Tillman finished the 2025 season at 8.2 PPG for the Cleveland Browns (14 games), and Jaylen Waddle averaged 10.1 for the Miami Dolphins (16 games).
That 1.9-point weekly advantage for Jaylen Waddle is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Cedric Tillman turned 78 targets into 612 yards and 4 touchdowns, while Jaylen Waddle converted 100 looks into 910 yards and 6 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
Cedric Tillman has his bye in Week 10, and Jaylen Waddle rests in Week 6. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at wide receiver for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
