Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or George Pickens

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs caught nine of his 11 targets for 105 yards during Thursday's Week 11 victory over the New York Jets. The 31-year-old has been terrific lately, and even though his three-game touchdown streak came to an end Thursday, he still has five consecutive games with 10+ fantasy points (PPR). Diggs was on the field for 69.7 percent of the snaps in the victory, eclipsing his previous season-high by more than six percentage points. The increased involvement is a promising sign for fantasy managers, and so, too, is his continued success. The Patriots are on a roll, and their top pass catcher should continue to be deployed as a high-end WR2 heading into next week's battle against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens continued his strong first season with the team in Monday night's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, catching nine of his 11 targets for 144 yards and a touchdown. Pickens and fellow star wideout CeeDee Lamb both sat out the first offensive series of the game due to a coach's decision, but it didn't prevent them from having big games, especially Pickens. The former Pittsburgh Steeler tied a season high in catches and had his third game with at least 130 yards receiving, which is now the most in the league among wide receivers after Monday night. While both Cowboys wideouts have been great, Pickens has outproduced Lamb since he returned in Week 7, with 383 receiving yards to Lamb's 335. He will continue to rank as a strong WR1 moving forward in Dallas' high-powered offense.
