Scouting report

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Washington

Stefon Diggs returned a few weeks ago, and had a full bye week of rest to heal up, so he should be fine heading into Week 10. When he's healthy, Diggs is one of the best wideouts out there. But he's had trouble staying on the field this season, and throughout his career.

He gets a tough matchup this week against Washington, a team that doesn't allow too many receptions to opposing wideouts, which is where Diggs usually shines. This could be a tough week for the talented receiver, which is why he should be viewed more as a WR2 option.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 5 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 5 at Chicago Bears

Even though Case Keenum didn't play well last week, Stefon Diggs wasn't hurt too badly by it. He finished with 98 yards on 5 catches (7 targets). He leads the team in receiving yards and touchdowns, and has remained a solid player despite changes at quarterback.

Diggs gets a decent matchup this week against the Bears, and we expect him to continue to play well. Not only does he lead the Vikings in yards, but he leads the entire league. There's really no reason why he shouldn't continue to deliver big numbers against Chicago. He should be viewed as a strong WR1 this week.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Detroit Lions

Stefon Diggs struggled in Week 2 with Case Keenum at quarterback, so fantasy owners were concerned last week when it was announced Keenum would start again. But those fears subsided pretty quickly as Diggs caught pass-after-pass, finishing with 8 receptions for 173 yards and 2 touchdowns (on 11 targets).

Keenum will start again this week, so there might be concern, but Diggs looked fine last week. He's an exceptional PPR option, but he's really stepped up this season in having value as a standard receiver. It's only been three games and he's already tied his career high for touchdowns in a season.

Diggs gets a decent matchup this week against the Lions, and should be a strong WR2 play in both formats.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Stefon Diggs struggled last week without Sam Bradford. The talented receiver finished with just 2 catches for 27 yards on 6 targets. Bradford is still questionable with a knee injury, so if he sits again, then it could be worth benching Diggs this week against a tough Buccaneers defense.

If Bradford does play, as he's expected to, then Diggs returns as a WR2 play, especially in PPR formats where he performs well. Diggs is Bradford's favorite target when healthy, so if the veteran QB returns, then you should trust the Vikings wideout.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Pittsburgh Steelers

As expected, if Stefon Diggs is able to remain healthy, he'll be a good fantasy option. He caught 7-of-8 passes for 93 yards and 2 touchdowns last week. Diggs hasn't been known to be a high scorer, finishing with 4 and 3 touchdowns the last two seasons, respectively.

If he's able to continue to get in the end zone, he will have a much-increased value in all fantasy formats. He'll continue to be a strong PPR play this week against the Steelers, as he can be seen as a low-end WR1. In standard formats, he's more of a WR2.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. New Orleans Saints
Stefon Diggs has been a frustrating player to own the past two seasons. He's had some of the biggest performances by a wideout, and also some of the worst. His constant big-game, little-game streaks can get annoying. But we expect that to get better in 2017 if Diggs is able to stay healthy.

He gets his first crack at it in Week 1 in a favorable matchup against the Saints. Due to New Orleans' offense, most teams have to pass in games to keep up, which is good news for Diggs. He'll benefit a lot from the Vikings' short passes, giving him a boost in PPR formats.

Diggs should be viewed as a strong WR2 in all formats.
