Diontae Johnson, Davante Adams, and Stefon Diggs - these three wide receivers are currently among the top targets in the 2024 season. Each athlete is an impact-creating player who can put up big numbers under the right circumstances.

Back in 2023, the Carolina Panthers were thought to have a weak wideout room: Adam Thielen and a bunch of others led by then-rookie Jonathan Mingo. This played a major role in their league-worst 2-15 record.

In the subsequent offseason, they made major roster moves. They traded for Diontae Johnson, then traded up in the Draft for Xavier Legette. And in their last game, Johnson really showed up, embarrassing the Las Vegas Raiders with 122 yards and a touchdown from eight catches.

And against the Cincinnati Bengals, fans can expect another strong performance. He can be a good fantasy pick without a doubt.

Davante Adams was not available for the Panthers matchup. Coming off embarrassing the Baltimore Ravens with 110 yards and a touchdown from nine catches in an upset, he was limited to a paltry 40 yards from four.

It does not get any easier in his next outing. The Cleveland Browns, despite their struggles so far, still boast a formidable defense that can destroy the opposition.

Myles Garrett and Za'Darius Smith pose sack threats against Gardner Minshew, and then there is the secondary that boasts the likes of Denzel Ward and Greg Newsome II. Adams is always a hot pick; managers can bet on him.

Stefon Diggs has had a quiet start to his first season as a Houston Texan so far, taking a backseat to Nico Collins in their two wins. But in the loss at the Minnesota Vikings, he led the way with 94 yards from ten catches.

Next up for him are the Jacksonville Jaguars, a team that has a pair of credible pass-rushing threats in Josh Hines-Allen and Travon Walker who can bother CJ Stroud and prevent him from feeding his receivers.

But when there is a pass, the secondary lacks the required impact from the likes of Ronald Darby, Andre Cisco, and Darnell Savage.

According to Sportskeeda's Start/Sit Optimizer, Davante Adams is the clear-cut favorite to rebound from his surprising bad performance and be the one to start on fantasy team.

He remains one of the most prolific wide receivers in the league, even when his quarterback is not among the best. Despite a poor QB room at Raiders, he still managed to record 1000 yards in both seasons.
