Who Should I Start? Davante Adams or Stefon Diggs

Saturday, November 1, 11:37 AM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams will drop back down to second on the depth chart with Puka Nacua (ankle) returning against the New Orleans Saints in Week 9. Nevertheless, he's still one of the better No. 2 options in the NFL and is a borderline must-start in fantasy football. The 32-year-old comes off his bye week ranking as the overall WR13 in PPR leagues, tallying a solid six touchdowns to this point. Even with Nacua back in action, managers shouldn't overthink this decision. New Orleans is a great matchup for Adams, as the Saints have allowed the seventh-most receiving touchdowns in 2025. Start him as a high-end WR2 or low-end WR1 in all leagues.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been a steady contributor in fantasy football this season. Through eight games, he's averaging 11.9 fantasy points (full-PPR) while ranking as the overall WR26. He has posted double-digit points in four of his last five games, and he salvaged last week's fantasy outing with his first touchdown of the season. While Kayshon Boutte has been a big-play threat in New England, Diggs has been more of a reliable, short-to-medium passing option for Drake Maye. The 31-year-old is listed first on the depth chart of a 6-2 team whose offense is firing on all cylinders. That's always a good sign. Despite the Falcons allowing the third-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, Diggs should be deployed as a low-end WR2.
