Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or CeeDee Lamb

The Athletic's Chad Graff speculates that New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs (knee) could be reasonably ready to make his 2025 debut in Week 4 in a best-case scenario. When Diggs is fully recovered from the torn ACL he suffered in Week 8 last year with the Houston Texans, he'll be a reliable top target for second-year quarterback Drake Maye. The 31-year-old Diggs probably isn't the All-Pro he was earlier in his career, but he's just two years removed from 1,183 receiving yards with the Buffalo Bills. Graff also discusses the possibility that Diggs deals with nagging effects from his ACL tear and doesn't look like the same receiver at all. Working with Maye makes Diggs intriguing as a bounce-back candidate, but it all hinges on his health and how productive he can be following the serious knee injury. In fantasy, he'll be a pretty big dice roll.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) is "grateful" to be healthy. The wideout finished the 2023-24 campaign by amassing 135 receptions for 1,749 yards and totaling 14 touchdowns. However, he wasn't as productive last season, finishing with 101 grabs for 1,194 yards while finding the end zone only six times. Unfortunately, Lamb sustained an AC joint sprain in Week 9, an injury that plagued him for the remainder of the year while also causing his decline in production. However, he appears in good spirits and ready for Week 1. "I want to say a good five months of real recovery and rehab," said Lamb. "I don't know. I'm grateful to have two arms. I can tell you that." Lamb has seen his fantasy stock fall somewhat this offseason after regressing in 2024-25. Yet, if Lamb and Dak Prescott (hamstring) can both stay on the field this season, the 2020 No. 17 overall pick is in the running to reclaim his spot as the top fantasy receiver.
