Here is our fantasy football start/sit article, including all the players we’re calling sleepers and duds this week. Below, let’s take a closer look at a few players to consider this week.

Stefon Diggs (WR – HOU)

“Stefon Diggs has a revenge game matchup this week against the Buffalo Bills. While everyone expects the veteran to have a massive performance, don’t be surprised if the Bills do everything to shut him down. He hasn’t had a receiving touchdown since Week 1 despite averaging nine targets per game. More importantly, Diggs needed a rushing touchdown off a broken trick play to score double-digit half-point PPR fantasy points last week against a poor Jacksonville Jaguars defense despite the Texans missing Tank Dell and Joe Mixon. Buffalo has held wide receivers to only one receiving touchdown (in Week 1) and the second-fewest fantasy points per game this season (15.5). Dell will play this week, making Diggs severely overrated as the WR17 in the rankings.”

Drake London (WR – ATL)

“The good news on Drake London is that he’s had six receptions in each of his last three games. The bad news is that he hasn’t reached 70 receiving yards in any of his first four games, and he has yet to record a catch of 20 or more yards. The Falcons’ new-look offense has yet to fully take flight. Of course, you have to start London in fantasy leagues this week, but perhaps he doesn’t have the glittery upside that some of the other top-20 receivers have.”

Bijan Robinson (RB – ATL)

“You know what? Bijan Robinson kind of sucks. Hyperbole aside, the Falcons continue to involve Tyler Allgeier, which severely hampers Bijan’s RB1 potential. You don’t need to sit him, but we have seen enough to abandon any expectations of greatness. He is an RB2 until proven otherwise.”
