Quick answer
Waller scored 76.7 Half-PPR points in 2025 (TE31). Played a shortened 2025 (9 games) — health is the nearer question than talent. He's 33.9 now, old enough that the decline risk is real — plan for a shorter peak window. Don't buy a bounce from the 2026 Engine line alone; it's a low-volume outlook.
