On the FantasyPros waiver wire show, Sealy said Romeo Dobbs is locked in as Green Bay's No. 2 receiver with Jayden Reed out and is a worthwhile free add, that Troy Franklin has passed Marvin Mims to become Denver's No. 2 receiver behind Sutton and deserves a big waiver bid, that Blake Corum is clearly the Rams' backup to Kyren Williams (a top-five handcuff), and that Cedric Tillman and Ayomanor should both be picked up, along with a cheap flyer on Chris Rodriguez.
“He is clearly, by far way ahead of Mims. He is the one and the two with Sutton.”
