Commanders an Intriguing Landing Spot for Stefon Diggs

Sunday, July 26, 9:00 AM

ESPN's Jeremy Fowler says that the Washington Commanders are an intriguing fit to veteran free-agent wide receiver Stefon Diggs, primarily because they possess a strong young quarterback in Jayden Daniels. Diggs has reportedly attracted interest from at least five teams recently, and he's highly motivated going into the 2026 season since he's not rehabbing an ACL injury like he was last offseason. Despite playing around 55% of the offensive snaps in 2025 with the New England Patriots, the 32-year-old four-time Pro Bowler led the team in receiving and posted his seventh 1,000-yard season while scoring four times on 85 receptions in 17 regular-season starts in 2025. There have been rumors all offseason that the Commanders are looking to sign another receiver to give them more depth behind WR1 Terry McLaurin, but so far, they haven't pulled the trigger. Nothing is imminent with Diggs, but he should land with a new team before the start of the 2026 campaign, which will be his 12th in the NFL. Heading to D.C. will probably give him the best opportunity to regain fantasy football value alongside McLaurin.

Christian Watson's High-End Upside Makes him a Priority Target at Current ADP

Monday, July 20, 7:40 AM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson missed the first seven games of the 2025 season while recovering from offseason knee surgery. However, the 27-year-old was a productive player upon his return, recording 35 catches for 611 yards and six touchdowns on 55 targets across 10 games. Entering 2026, the Packers' offseason subtraction of wide receiver Romeo Doubs could mean that Watson is the team's clear WR1. Green Bay still has several talented pass-catchers in wide receivers Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden, as well as tight end Tucker Kraft (knee). The team has also typically operated a run-heavy offense and utilized Watson primarily as a downfield option, both of which have limited his target volume in the past. Still, Watson has flashed high-end upside throughout his career, and the team recently committed to him in the form of a four-year, $92 million contract extension. As the WR29 by current redraft ADP, Watson is a risky selection but also one that could pay major dividends for fantasy managers.
