Who Should I Start? Stefon Diggs or Jaxon Smith-Njigba

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs roasted the Miami Dolphins in Week 4, catching 6-of-7 targets for 120 yards and three touchdowns in the 48-20 victory. Diggs put his fingerprints all over this one. He broke free for an 11-yard score early in the second quarter after drawing a pass interference penalty earlier in the drive. On Buffalo's highlight of the day among many nominees, Diggs shrugged off an illegal touching flag to wrestle a ball away from two Miami adversaries for an incredible 55-yard touchdown catch-and-run to cap off a stellar 107-yard, two-score first half. The 29-year-old superstar made a sweet move to juke a defender and add a third score from 13 yards out for good measure. Diggs' 16-game pace through four games shows a 124/1596/16 receiving line. That'll do. The Jacksonville Jaguars await in Week 5 next Sunday at their home away from home in London, where Diggs will be a WR1.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
