Cleared of any NFL discipline and touting himself as the best WR2 in the land, Diggs would fit every wide receiver-needy squad. He has done well with young QBs on the rise—Josh Allen and Drake Maye—and Jayden Daniels badly needs a reliable second option opposite Terry McLaurin. Diggs is a Maryland native who played in high school and college there, and Washington GM Adam Peters loves signing veterans to one-year deals.

Whenever Diggs signs, he's going to be playing catchup with his new team. Considering that and his age (he turns 33 in November), the source couldn't push him into double digits. That said, Diggs still maintained an 83.3% catch rate last year and a super 9.9 yards per target. Part of that profile is a commentary on Drake Maye, but Diggs still appears to have something left in the tank.

Ricky Pierall drafted Diggs at pick 135 and expressed interest in pairing him with Jaden Daniels, hoping Diggs lands with the Commanders. Pierall has drafted Diggs heavily in his mock drafts and prefers a Commanders destination over Carolina, as a Diggs-to-Carolina move would negatively impact his draft strategy given his limited exposure to Antonio Williams and Chi McMillan.

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.

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).

The source highlights Diggs as undervalued at WR17 (Round 4 ADP) after finishing sixth in receiving yards and seventh in fantasy points among wide receivers in 2025 following two years of consistent improvement. Diggs demonstrated elite efficiency with 2.5 yards per route run, finishing behind only Puka Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba among wideouts with at least 300 routes run. The source's analysis is cut off mid-sentence but the trajectory and efficiency metrics support Diggs' value at his current ADP.

Once signed, Diggs is expected to be the Commanders' number two wide receiver in a plug-and-play role; the source believes he will step in immediately despite being a veteran coming off injury, as the team needs to fill a significant gap after losing Terry McLaurin. The source notes Diggs' legal issues and injury recovery may delay his signing into late July or early August, but his veteran status means training camp ramp-up will be faster than a younger player.
