Stefon Diggs or Jake Ferguson: who should I start in Week 3?
Both players' season price from the sportsbooks, their usage this season and their last full season's numbers, with the draft market's own figures wherever it still has them.
Updated Sep 25, 2026 at 5:11 AM ET
The sportsbooks price Stefon Diggs 0.2 points a game ahead of Jake Ferguson this season, and that is the order this page leads on. Neither is in the consensus draft sample any more, so there is no current draft order to give between them: the books' price is the live market on these two.

Side by side
In 2025 Stefon Diggs scored 12.4 PPR points a game and Jake Ferguson 11.1, 1.3 a game between them.
Stefon Diggs finished WR17 and Jake Ferguson TE5, which are two different ladders.
Stefon Diggs is a wide receiver and Jake Ferguson a tight end, so the question is which slot you fill first rather than which of them is better.
Byes and availability
Stefon Diggs is off in Week 7 and Jake Ferguson in Week 14, so either can cover the other's bye.
What would change the answer
0.2 points a game is the entire case. The books restate it every week, and a line that moves moves the order with it.
The draft market is the half that is missing: when the consensus sample holds these two again it can order them differently from the price, and this page will follow the sample rather than the books when it does.
