All Matt Harmon insights about Stefon Diggs

PositiveValueSep 1, 2026
Matt Harmon selected Diggs in the eighth round as a steady, reliable producer with a high floor, explicitly contrasting him against higher-ceiling, boom-bust options like Brian Thomas Jr. and Jaden Reed. Harmon projects Diggs' role as more insulated from Washington quarterback chaos than Terry McLaurin's; expects Diggs and McLaurin to finish closer together than originally thought due to the team's offensive line chaos, but Diggs was still really good last year. Confidence in the pick is contingent on Jaden Daniels staying healthy.

Matt Harmon identifies Stefon Diggs as an elite route technician who remains highly impactful despite a dip in athleticism. Diggs maintains high success rates against man/press (~70%) and zone (~79%), with elite separation on quick-breaking routes like outs (93.8%) and flats (97%). Having transitioned to a slot-heavy role (over 40% of snaps in the last two years, including 54.3% with the Patriots in 2023), Diggs is expected to provide a vital, quick-release outlet for Jayden Daniels, similar to the role he played for Drake Maye under pressure. Harmon also notes that Diggs and Terry McLaurin are both highly successful on dig routes, which should be a staple of the new offensive scheme.

Harmon points to Stefon Diggs as a historical precedent for aging WR role adjustment: after declining as a perimeter/downfield receiver in Buffalo post-2023, Diggs required a role change to age gracefully; with Houston and New England, he shifted to slot/Z-based usage with shorter average depth of target and shorter route tree, demonstrating how elite technicians can sustain production through role modification rather than maintaining peak vertical/perimeter usage.
