Benny drafted Stefon Diggs over Adam Thielen, and was heavily blasted for that move by Caleb below:
While their ADP’s were fairly close (Diggs: 12.4, Thielen: 13.2), the move started to reflect poorly when Thielen stood as the WR1 overall after the first 8 games of the season:
Week 1, SF: 16.2 points // 6 rec, 102 yards
Week 2, GB: 31.1 points // 12 rec, 131 yards, 1 TD
Week 3, BUF: 24.5 points // 14 rec, 105 yards
Week 4, LAR: 27.5 points // 8 rec, 135 yards, 1 TD
Week 5, PHI: 24.6 points // 7 rec, 116 yards, 1 TD
Week 6, ARI: 29.3 points // 11 rec, 123 yards, 1 TD
Week 7, NYJ: 26 points // 9 rec, 110 yards, 1 TD
Week 8, NO: 22.8 points // 7 rec, 103 yards, 1 TD
However, after week 8, Thielen’s production took a steep decline relative to Diggs.
In Weeks 9–16, Diggs outscored Thielen 101.3 to 98.6 (with Diggs even playing one game less than Thielen). In the fantasy playoffs, Thielen was overall WR38.
So, who will be next to draft Diggs over Thielen?
