Who Should I Start? Mike Evans or Stefon Diggs

Friday, December 26, 3:07 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans has seen heavy involvement in the passing game since making his return to the field two weeks ago. Since Week 15, Evans has hauled in 11 of his 21 targets for 163 yards with one touchdown. He figures to continue being a focal point on offense heading into the Week 17 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. This Dolphins' defense has been middle of the pack when it comes to defending wide receivers this season. Clearly, Evans is a favorite target for quarterback Baker Mayfield. Fantasy managers should be able to count on Evans as a WR2 for this game.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught all six of his targets for 101 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 17 win over the New York Jets. After a three-week lull, Diggs has bounced back in a huge way, catching 15 passes for 239 yards and one touchdown over his last two games. The veteran receiver has earned the full trust of MVP candidate Drake Maye, whether it's a medium pass to move the chains or a tricky pass into coverage downfield. There's certainly some risk associated with starting Diggs given his occasional inconsistency this year, but his role and recent success will keep him as a top-15 fantasy receiver for Week 18 against the Miami Dolphins. He should continue to be started in all leagues.
