Through 5 games he's WR106 at 2.8 PPR points per game, against 6.2 over 15 games last season (WR66). He's running behind last season's pace.
He's WR2 on the depth chart, so his value depends on the players ahead of him.
Read our preseason outlook (June 2026)
Published June 16, 2026. Kept for reference; the take above replaces it.
Mims took a step back in 2025, finishing as our WR86 with a tepid 0.069 EPA per play and a 41.2% success rate while logging just a 36.9% snap rate across 15 games. His 8.7% target share and 0.199 targets per route run translated to 37 catches for 322 yards and one score, and the 1.26 yards per route run badly undersold the explosive profile he flashed a year earlier (0.449 EPA, 2.76 YPRR, six touchdowns). The efficiency cratered as the role stayed part-time.
Denver's offseason did him no favors. Adding Jaylen Waddle behind Courtland Sutton pushes Mims into a target competition with Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant for whatever scraps remain. His return work keeps him relevant in special-teams scoring leagues, but as a pure receiver he profiles as a late-round dart and bench stash whose ceiling hinges on an injury opening reps ahead of him.
