MIN WR Stefon Diggs - 2017 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

Stefon Diggs had some of the biggest fantasy performances of the season in 2016, with three 100-yard games and two 13-reception games. Diggs improved from his rookie season and set new career-highs in receptions (84) and yards (903). He returns in his third year as the main receiving threat in Minnesota.

When healthy, Diggs is hard to stop and is the primary benefactor of Sam Bradford’s short passes. He carries a lot of value in PPR formats.

Fantasy Downside

Diggs is off-and-on with his performances. He can blow up with 10+ receptions for 100+ yards or he can catch 2 passes for 18 yards. Part of his struggles last season were due to the fact he wasn’t fully healthy, but if he’s on the field, you feel the need to play him as a fantasy owner.

In addition to being hot-and-cold, Diggs isn’t a threat to score many touchdowns. He had just three scores last season and caught only two passes inside the 10-yard line.

2017 Bottom Line

Opinions on Diggs vary throughout the fantasy community due to his inconsistency. He can be one of the top performers one week and absolutely bomb the next. His unreliability is what knocks him down a few rounds, but if he’s able to maintain any level of success, he could end up being a steal. He’s a good possession receiver in an offense that likes to dump quick passes.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 16, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 16 vs. Green Bay
Stefon Diggs had yet another downer last week. He finished with just two receptions for 13 yards in a decent matchup. We've seen Diggs go off on defenses this season, and we've also seen him become barely involved in the offense.

We expect him to rebound in Week 16 against the Packers, a team he dominated earlier in the year. Diggs had a season-high 182 yards in the Week 2 game, including a score. This is a favorable matchup for him, and he should be viewed as a potential WR3.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 15, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Indianapolis
Stefon Diggs didn't play very well last week in a tough matchup against the Jaguars, as he finished with just three receptions for 55 yards on five targets.

He'll look to bounce back this week in a decent matchup against the Colts. Overall, Indy has been favorable towards receivers, but they haven't allowed much in recent weeks. Diggs is well-known for his multiple-reception games, but the Colts have allowed just eight, nine, and six total team receptions to wideouts in the last three games, respectively.

As Diggs owners know, he can blow up any week -- just as easily as he can have a dud. He should be viewed as a WR2 with more upside in PPR formats.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 14, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 vs. Jacksonville
Stefon Diggs returned from injury last week and returned to his productive PPR ways. He had eight receptions for 59 yards, which isn't great, but could be a lot worse. As you can gather, he offers much more value in PPR formats.

He could struggle this week, however, against a tough Jags pass defense. The receptions may be there in an effort to get more passes to him, but don't expect a huge yardage day. He should be viewed as a WR3 in standard leagues and a WR2 in PPR.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 13, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Dallas
Stefon Diggs sat out last week with an injury, but he's expected to return against Dallas. Diggs had back-to-back games of 13 receptions a few weeks ago and then had a downer before suffering an injury.

When healthy, Diggs is a solid WR2, or low-end WR1 in PPR formats. He'll get a chance to return to form this week against a favorable Dallas defense. His injury status leaves us a bit curious as to how effective he'll be, so he should be viewed as a WR3 choice in standard formats and WR2 in PPR formats.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 12, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Detroit
Stefon Diggs is one of the most frustrating players in fantasy because he's so wildly inconsistent. After back-to-back 13-reception games, Diggs finished Week 11 with six catches for a mere 37 yards.

Diggs will have a strong upside this week in a decent matchup against the Lions. He obviously carries more value in PPR formats, but he's still a low-end WR1 play in standard formats.

MIN WR Stefon Diggs - Week 11, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Arizona
Stefon Diggs now has back-to-back games with 13 receptions, which is literally unheard of in the NFL as it set a record. Even more impressive is his efficiency. He caught 13-of-15 targets last week, as Sam Bradford kept it short, and allowed his receiver to make plays after the catch.

The 13-catch efforts should stop, but expect Diggs to continue his high level of production moving forward. He'll likely drop a bit this week due to a bad matchup against the Cardinals, but at least he appears to have recovered from his midseason slump. Diggs is a solid WR2 play, or low-end WR1 in PPR formats.
