Stefon Diggs vs Tyler Lockett: The Full Breakdown
Deciding between Stefon Diggs and Tyler Lockett is a common lineup dilemma for fantasy managers. The New England Patriots wide receiver put up 9.9 PPG in 2025 over 17 games; Tyler Lockett of the Seattle Seahawks averaged 6.9 in 15. A 3.0-point margin that could shift on any given week.
The per-game difference of 3.0 points favors Stefon Diggs, though savvy managers know that gap can shrink or widen depending on the weekly slate. Defensive matchup, recent scoring trends, and health status all shift the calculus from one wide receiver to the other.
Target volume is the story here. Stefon Diggs saw 102 targets in 2025, while Tyler Lockett drew 72. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Stefon Diggs, even in weeks where Tyler Lockett posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
Stefon Diggs has his bye in Week 11, and Tyler Lockett rests in Week 10. Managers rostering both need waiver wire depth at wide receiver for those two weeks, and that is exactly the kind of planning DraftCall's matchup engine surfaces automatically so you are not scrambling on a Sunday morning.
