Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Courtland Sutton

Saturday, September 6, 9:42 AM

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs will make his team debut during Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The veteran receiver is expected to operate as the Patriots' WR1, providing plenty of support to second-year quarterback Drake Maye. The Raiders sneakily had an above-average pass defense last year, but Diggs should still see enough volume to justify starting him as a WR3/FLEX in fantasy. After all, outside of Hunter Henry, Diggs doesn't face a whole lot of competition for targets. Managers should feel confident deploying the veteran as a low-end WR3/FLEX in leagues with at least 12 teams.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton recorded six catches for 61 yards and a touchdown in his team's 20-12 Week 1 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Sutton led Denver in targets with nine and looked like the clear number one option for Broncos quarterback Bo Nix. If there's cause for concern for Sutton going forward, it's that Nix did not play well in Week 1. The second-year quarterback averaged just 4.4 yards per pass attempt and threw two picks on Sunday. Still, Sutton put up a solid fantasy day nonetheless and should be considered a fantasy WR2.
