Reggie Wayne has been a beast, and shouldn’t be slept on, but if given the chance, I would pass on this veteran receiver in your draft.
He is 35 years old, and coming off of a torn ACL, which is just about as bad as it gets. He managed to score 2 TDs in seven games last season, which wasn’t going to put him on pace to score more than 5 total. He does have Andrew Luck throwing to him, which is a plus, but I think the majority of Luck’s targets are going to hit T.Y. Hilton this season.
Like I said, it’s hard to doubt Reggie, but I think last year’s injury combined with his age will severely damage any worth he has in fantasy football.
