Stefon Diggs Chart

Overview: Diggs is a dangerous playmaker after the catch, but his game is limited. He plays almost exclusively in the slot and will be limited to that role at the next level. His routes are sloppy and he isn’t a physical receiver, despite having decent size for a slot receiver. While he definitely has NFL traits and can be a quality option in the slot, his skills are not special and he will be an easily replaceable part of an NFL roster.
