Flex Stefon Diggs or Michael Thomas (ppr) (1 Viewer)

I think Diggs is finally healthy and gets a good matchup vs. Bears, while Thomas gets a home game vs. Seahawks.  Thanks

This absolutely has to be Thomas, who's been Brees' primary target over the last 3 weeks. That includes the red zone, by the way. The matchup seems daunting but slot men have had success against Seattle, as Richard Sherman doesn't go there and Earl Thomas plays deeper than they're used.

But PFF says M. Thomas only plays 10% in slot, Snead is 78% slot and Cooks is 38% slot.  Thomas may be the guy they sacrifice to Sherman.

I'd roll with DIggs.

Here's mine

Good catch. Shouldn't have intimated that Thomas is the slot. Just mean that he's primarily an underneath and flats guy, where there's been success vSEA and hardly where they'll waste Sherman.
