Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Amon-Ra St. Brown

Friday, September 22, 1:36 PM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs played second fiddle to teammate Gabe Davis' 92 yards and a score with 66 scoreless yards in Week 2's triumph over the Las Vegas Raiders. The 29-year-old next does battle with the Washington Commanders secondary, who just saw rookie Marvin Mims Jr. dust them up for 113 yards and a touchdown on two targets last Sunday. Diggs likely draws the more favorable matchup between himself and Davis in Week 3, as he looks to pick on first-round rookie Emmanuel Forbes Jr. in this one, while Davis perhaps deals more regularly with top Commanders corner Kendall Fuller. Having caught 17-of-20 targets for 168 yards to start the campaign after a rocky offseason, Diggs has relieved any fear that his harmony with quarterback Josh Allen would be compromised in 2023. The three-time Pro Bowler rates as a high-floor WR1 in this one with four red-zone targets thus far.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (toe) was listed as questionable for the Week 3 game against the Atlanta Falcons. St. Brown didn't practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday and put in a full practice on Friday. All signs point to St. Brown being active on Sunday, and he even said himself that he plans on playing this weekend. Fantasy managers will still want to double-check on Sunday morning to make sure he's active. The 23-year-old is a must-start WR1 in fantasy lineups as long as he's playing. Through two weeks to kick off his third NFL season, he's caught 12 of his 16 targets for 173 yards and a touchdown. Fellow pass-catcher Josh Reynolds (groin) is also questionable, but he followed the same practice plan this week as St. Brown, so he should also be active after a big performance in Week 2.
