Stefon Diggs' 2024 got derailed by an ACL tear in October with the Texans, but he still flashed WR1 chops -- 15.2 points per game (WR16 pace) and a four-catch floor in every outing before the injury.
Now a Patriot, he's the alpha in a receiving corps desperate for star power. Diggs is a WR2 with WR1 potential if he's fully healthy to start the season. Early reports peg him as ready for camp, and if he's even 90% of his old self he's probably back to feasting immediately.
Drake Maye's arm strength and McDaniels' love for feeding No. 1 receivers could push Diggs to a huge target share, such as the one he enjoyed in his early years in Buffalo. Unlike in Houston, where he split looks with Nico Collins and Tank Dell, Diggs is the clear top dog here in New England. The risk is real -- ACL recoveries can be dicey at 32 -- but the reward screams value. Bet on the talent, not the fear.

Diggs set to practice when Patriots open camp Wednesday ACL recovery By: Mike Krueger | Tue Jul 22, 8:22 am

FFToday's Take: Diggs (31) has avoided the PUP list as the Patriots get set to open up camp. This is good news for the projected top wideout in the New England offense who sits atop the depth chart above Mack Hollins, Demario Douglas and Kyle Williams. It would be wise to project a slow start for Diggs but he's comfortably in the WR3 / Flex range for now.
