Though Wednesday is dubbed National Signing Day, it only ushers in the signing period. Stefon Diggs will have until April 1 to ink his signature to the school of his choosing,
and will head to Maryland this weekend, MaxPreps reports.
Diggs is ranked the 14th overall prospect by MaxPreps and is considered the second-best receiver in this year's class, behind Dorial Green-Beckham of Hillcrest (Springfield, Mo.).
Though Diggs is expected to delay his signing, another talented Maryland product plans to announce where he's headed on Wednesday at 2:30 p.m., EST.
