Both analysts currently expect a still-unsigned veteran free agent—most likely Stefon Diggs—to be the answer as Washington's WR2 once he signs, even though he's not technically on the roster yet, with one the source already drafting shares of him in best-ball formats as a bet on that outcome. One the source raises a soft character concern about the free agent's unresolved off-field legal situation, but still expects him to ultimately sign and be a plug-and-play contributor immediately once he does.NegativeValueJul 30, 2026
Multiple analysts view Stefon Diggs as a low-risk late-round stash with upside. Kevin English notes Diggs is just outside the top 55 in WR ADP and will move inside once he signs; despite tearing his ACL in October 2024 and playing only 55% of Patriots snaps, he finished with 85 catches for 1,013 yards and 4 TDs, averaging 9.9 yards per target and 2.08 yards per route run. Pat Fitzmaurice calls him a potential every-week WR2 when in the right situation, noting worst case is a wasted late-round pick and best case is a dependable WR. Derek Brown projects Diggs as a WR2/3 depending on landing spot, highlighting his WR23 ranking in fantasy points per game with only 65.4% route share, 22nd in target per route run rate (25%), 20th in receiving yards per game (59.6), and 8th in yards per route run (2.53).NegativeProjectionJul 25, 2026
Stefon Diggs ranked WR56 in FantasyPros' most accurate expert consensus rankings with an ADP of 147 and consensus rank of 150.5, indicating late-round wide receiver valuation despite free agent status.PositiveValueJul 23, 2026
Jacob Piccolo argues that Stefon Diggs is a screaming value at WR80 ECR, essentially free in the later rounds of your draft. While Diggs is not currently signed to a team and had struggles last year, he could sign to most teams and become an instant contributor. He may not be the locked-in WR1 of the past, but could easily be a WR3 or flex play with a ceiling higher than that depending where he signs. Even in a season where he seemingly disappointed, he eclipsed the 1000-yard mark and finished as the WR18 overall. Piccolo states that when you can get someone who finished as a locked-in WR2 the year prior at WR80 value, that's an easy draft every time.PositiveValueJul 23, 2026
Diggs was picked in round 14 with a clear expiration date in mind: as soon as he signs with a team, he won't be available at this price anymore. Even in a limited, capped role last year, his per-route production still graded out as a true wide receiver two. His route share is expected to climb significantly once he's back on a full-time role. Depending on the landing spot, he projects as a wide receiver three by draft-day price with real wide receiver two upside, or even higher if he lands somewhere as the clear top target. The advice for anyone in an early draft or best-ball format: draft him now, before he signs and this window closes.PositiveValueJul 13, 2026
Diggs is available at ADP 147.9 and represents significant value before signing with a new team. In 2025 with New England, he earned 100 targets and ranked sixth in yards per route run (2.24) and fifth in yards per target among 26 WRs with 100+ targets; he also ranked ninth in total yards after the catch and 10th in yards after contact per reception. The source expects his ADP to spike dramatically once he signs, similar to A.J. Brown's jump from the early 40s to mid-to-late second round after his trade. Off-field issues have calmed, and receiver-hungry teams remain available.
