Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Jamison Crowder

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.

According to the team, Washington Commanders wide receiver Jamison Crowder (hamstring) is off the injury report and good to go for Saturday's playoff game against the Detroit Lions. Crowder carried a questionable tag with this same injury last tweet but avoided one heading into the divisional round. Last weekend against Tampa Bay, Crowder logged just offensive snaps and did not see a target. He also was held off the scoresheet during Week 18. However, during Weeks 15 through 17, Crowder caught 2.7 passes per game and, tallied 22.3 yards per contest and found the end zone twice. The 31-year-old should be viewed as a high-risk desperation flex play as he is the clear No.4 option in the wide receiver room and has not seen consistent work throughout the season.
