Davante Adams, Stefon Diggs, and Justin Jefferson are the best NFL receivers today, each with a unique skill set.

Davante Adams is the joint oldest of the three and has the most stacked resume. Some critics might say he racked up receptions and touchdowns because of the Aaron Rodgers connection, but such critics have been quiet this season. Adams is currently putting up elite stats as a struggling Las Vegas Raiders lineup member, which is no mean feat.

Then there's Stefon Diggs, a proven performer and a member of the Buffalo Bills who needs no introduction. Diggs has been a threat since his rookie year with the Minnesota Vikings, and he has only gotten better by the year. One of the most durable wide receivers in the league, Diggs loves spectacular catches, and this year he has been living up to his lofty expectations.

Last but not least is Justin Jefferson, the youngest of the three, but certainly no slouch in the All-Pro receiver conversation. Justin Jefferson is in his third season in the league, and he is steadily making defenders look silly with his silky route running. Jefferson is Kirk Cousins' secret weapon, and the Vikings' offense relies almost solely on his generational talents.

Regarding who amongst the three you should start, we recommend picking Davante Adams.

Why do we recommend that you start Davante Adams?

Davante Adams is a problem, a problem that, for the past seven years, defensive coordinators haven't been able to solve. Adams is a threat in many ways, and it is virtually impossible to build a game plan that nullifies his next-level skillset.

This year, he moved from familiar surroundings in Green Bay to join his Fresno State QB, Derek Carr, and he hasn't missed a step. Adams is one of the few reasons the Raiders look even remotely respectable this season. Additionally, his availability would dictate whether the Raiders go to the postseason this year.
