What has Adams done even when healthy

Guy is a marginal talent

Diggs is about to frick shite up. Adams is one of the more disappointing players of the year. The production everyone thought that he was going to get because of Nelson's injury went to Jones even when Adams was healthy. I expect little from him. I have both players on my roster.

He lead the Packers in targets Wk1 and had 5 targets before he left in the 2nd quarter of wk 2. He's the only deep threat the Packers have.

I'm banking on Adams to get it going in the second half.

Also it is crazy that Diggs isn't already rostered in your league.

You do know James Jones is averaging 20 yards/catch, right?

Christian Ponder was able to make Percy Harvin a weekly start not too long ago...Diggs has similar potential.

Diggs is the ODB this year

Adams is not a deep threat

I haven't watched him that much, but I was under the impression that Adams is a little slow and a short yardage possession receiver.

He put up 120 with a TD in a playoff game as a rookie. I think the jury is still out on him for sure, but he is a talented guy in a potent passing attack. I wouldn't write him off based off two games early this season.

I dont think people are writing him off. The question is between him and Diggs who do people like better for the rest of the season.

Obviously a guy already inserted and established into the game plan and producing at a high level in an offense lacking other options is an easier option to roll with.

Diggs is batting 3/3 regardless of competition and this includes a solid performance against arguably the best defense in the league.

Adams has had AR for 2 seasons now and between injuries and inconsistent production its much easier to say a safer bet would be the no.1 option on a team vs. the no.3 regardless of who is QB.

I'm not sure he's that talented. However, Rodgers is talented. Question is where does Adams eat? Is he going to jump Jones in the pecking order

That offense is great but it's not producing 3 viable fantasy WR week to week. Check the numbers and history

The comment I quoted sounded pretty close to writing the guy off to me. I think it is closer than everyone else thinks. Packer passing offense is such much better than the Vikings. Of course, that also means more competition for targets.

i'm holding onto Adams but won't start him unless I have to or if he starts to put up points.

he had a nice game against New England last year when much of the attention was on Jordy Nelson.

it will be interesting to see where he lines up and how much playing time he'll this week. James Jones would still be starting I assume. They run a lot of 3 WR sets so I guess Adams is still technically a starter?

I'm not a scout by any stretch, so I can't say for sure, but he was drafted in the second round of a historically deep WR class by possibly the best guy around at drafting talent. And I know Rodgers was raving about him all camp.

Like I said the jury is out, but I'm still optimistic.

Yea there was early optimism. It it were he and Cobb or he and jones, then yeah, he's getting looks by default

@GrahamBarfield: Stefon Diggs' PPR finishes over the last four weeks: WR25, bye, WR15, WR7. Has seen 10, 9, and 9 targets in those games. Gets #Bears next.

Pretty solid moving forward

Would you trade Moncreif for Diggs at this point? You would be gambling that Diggs will end of a top 15 WR

I like Diggs as well. Unless this is a really shallow league, I don't think either of these guys should be on the waiver wire.
