Stefon Diggs Still a Free Agent Ahead of the NFL Draft

Saturday, April 18, 7:46 AM

Free agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs remains unsigned as we head into the back half of April. Diggs was cut loose after one season with the New England Patriots, during which he caught 85 passes for 1,013 yards and four touchdowns. He ranked as the overall WR17 in PPR leagues, which was an improvement from when he missed nine games in 2024. However, it was still a significant drop-off from his four-year stint in Buffalo, where he was a top-10 fantasy receiver every year. Coming off a 1,000-yard season, it's a little surprising we haven't heard more about Diggs' free agent market. Perhaps at this point in the offseason, NFL teams are waiting to see how the draft unfolds before deciding whether to make a big free agency addition. Presumably, we'll see some more chatter about potential landing spots for Diggs when the 2026 NFL Draft concludes one week from today.

Christian Kirk News

Christian Kirk Could Still Produce in WR3 Role

Saturday, April 4, 7:55 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Christian Kirk will embark on the next chapter of his career in 2026. After spending time with the Cardinals, Jaguars, and Texans, Kirk is now headed to the 49ers on a one-year deal. He's currently projected as the No. 3 receiver behind Mike Evans and Ricky Pearsall after the team watched Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne depart in free agency. Kirk has produced a modest 55 catches, 618 yards, and two touchdowns across 21 games over the last two seasons. However, he showed that he's still capable of contributing at a high level with 144 yards in the Wild Card Round of the playoffs. Landing in San Francisco is a great fit for Kirk. In the No. 3 role last year, Bourne had 37 catches and 551 yards (but just seven catches and 91 yards in games where both Pearsall and Jennings were healthy). Kirk might not have standalone value as the No. 3 receiver, but both Evans and Pearsall have significant injury histories; they combined to miss 17 games just last season. Therefore, we wouldn't be surprised to see Kirk jump to No. 2 on the depth chart at various points next season, propelling him to the WR3/flex tier.
