No One Is Stefon Diggs, But He’s Very Pricey In 2021: These 2 Discount Options Fit His “Leap” Profile

September 2, 2021

Shawn Siegele continues the discount series with a look at two wide receivers to target if you miss out on Stefon Diggs.

For years we’ve been saying Stefon Diggs was the discount Antonio Brown. His 2020 campaign proved us right . . . or something about stopped clocks at the very least.

Diggs scored 20.5 PPG last season, and he was even better once fully acclimated in Buffalo, averaging 23.4 over his final eight games. That included a ridiculous 32.1 during the fantasy playoffs.

Today we’ll look at the elements of Diggs’ profile that foreshadowed his breakout, and we’ll locate the two discounted studs primed to make the leap to stardom in 2021.

The 2020 discount series featured players like Diontae Johnson (15.4% win rate), Robby Anderson (10.5%), and more. The 2021 series has started with discount options on Robert Woods and Austin Ekeler, and I’ll roll a few more out for the final drafts this weekend.

Shawn Siegele November 16, 2024

Who are the best dynasty assets ever? Shawn Siegele re-drafts and then ranks every rookie draft class from 2015 to 2024.
