Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Chris Olave

For the second straight week, New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye said he wants to get the ball to wide receiver Stefon Diggs more, according to Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald. "Got full trust in (Diggs). He just keeps showing it every week. You just try to get him the ball more. I told him that, you know, today," Maye said. After saying the same thing last week, Diggs was targeted a season-low three times and caught all three for a season-low 23 yards in the Week 3 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 31-year-old veteran has at least been efficient in his first three games with the Pats, catching 13 of his 15 targets, but he's gone for only 112 yards and no touchdowns. It's possible he's lost some juice after tearing his ACL last year, but it's good news that his QB is looking to keep him involved. Diggs will be a low-upside, touchdown-dependent WR4/flex in a good Week 4 matchup at home against the Carolina Panthers.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave absorbed 14 of the team's 41 pass attempts in Week 3 in their blowout loss to the Seahawks, which was good for a target share of over 34%. He turned those looks into 10 receptions for 54 yards, and through three weeks, he leads the league with 37 total targets. Olave has shown a strong connection with starting quarterback Spencer Rattler, and while he has yet to find the end zone, his heavy volume makes him a steady PPR option as Kellen Moore's offense continues to lean pass-heavy. He'll face a Bills secondary in Week 4 that has already surrendered four receiving touchdowns to opposing wideouts, and with New Orleans currently sitting as a 16.5-point underdog, the game script should once again funnel plenty of targets Olave's way.
