Stefon Diggs Settling In as a Safe WR3 With Touchdown Upside

Wednesday, November 4, 6:48 AM

Washington Commanders 32-year-old wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been thrust into a bigger role after teammate Terry McLaurin (knee) was injured and will miss the rest of the season. Diggs has been extremely consistent this season, earning six or more targets in every game he's played and ranking 21st in targets per game among qualified wide receivers. He's also 12th in targets per route run and 22nd in fantasy points per game. He's also finding a nose for the end zone, with four touchdowns on the season, ranking third in touchdowns per game. While his yardage is nothing to write home about, Diggs remains a safe WR3 PPR play in fantasy formats moving forward, with his upside depending on whether he gets in the end zone. Fantasy managers looking for a strong flex/WR3 play can start Diggs with confidence.

Is Jayden Reed a Worthy Injured Reserve Stash in Dynasty Leagues?

Saturday, October 10, 2:41 PM

Green Bay Packers wideout Jayden Reed (neck) has produced multiple splash performances and shown flashes of fantasy football stardom. In his limited role, Reed produced 18-plus fantasy points eight times and 15-plus fantasy points 12 times in a game. Through 42 career games, he's caught 142 of his 199 targets for 1,881 yards and 15 touchdowns. However, his limited role and injuries have capped his fantasy ceiling. The Green Bay Packers have deployed a wide receiver-by-committee approach throughout his career, and he has taken a backseat to Christian Watson when Watson has been healthy. Unfortunately, he's suffered two major upper-body injuries that could impact the remainder of his career. In Week 2 this season, Reed suffered a season-ending neck injury, while suffering a broken clavicle and a Jones fracture early last season. If you have an injured reserve spot open in a dynasty league, he is a worthy stash because of his high ceiling when on the field.
