Re: Bills trading Diggs to texans

Diggs is getting killed by NFL insiders.

Michael Lombardi former GM said the Bills have been trying to trade Diggs the entire off season and this was the best deal they could get. He thought the Bills were lucky to get what they did.

Sean Salisbury says just wait until he only gets 3 balls he’ll be complaining. A leopard doesn’t change his spots. He’s saying a lot of negatives about him. He said they might have given up too much to get him for all his issues.
He said Houston is hoping they can fix Driggs’s issues but they probably need a really good psychologist.

Seems like the NFL world has a lot more insight as to Diggs issues that we weren’t privy to.

Two teams have said thanks but no thanks anymore to one of the better WR in the league. That says a lot about him.

Would our first and next years first get us there?

If Kincaid can be half of what Kielce is, we will survive this. But that’s a huge “if.”

Working in Kincaid's favor is that Allen trusted him and targeted him heavily between weeks 7 - 14, especially when Knox was out.

With our WR corps being so thin, I have to imagine Brady will work Kincaid heavily into the game plan this season.

Despite only having one season under his belt, I feel safe in saying Kincaid is already a gifted pass catcher who will only get better. He's not an 'unknown' for me.

Use that 2nd to bring in Justin Jefferson...LOL.

Vikings said they are not trading Jefferson and not only that, Vikings will laugh and hang up the phone if Bills only offer a 2nd round pick, he is worth more than a 2nd round pick since he is the best wide receiver in the NFL

Re: Bills trading Diggs to texans

Diggs and two picks for a 2nd next year? Not an immediate fan of this move, I hope there are some other coordinated moves to come and this was just the first domino.

Don't be surprised if the next ones start falling soon.

Re: Bills trading Diggs to texans

I do think that the WR story is not over for this offseason. Zero chance that we go into the season without an addition to the WR room. A high draft pick for sure, but I'd honestly be a little surprised if it's just a draft pick--it would be unlike the Bills to rely on a rookie at a position like #1 WR. Highly doubt that they're satisfied starting the season with Samuel/Hollins/Shakir while a rookie gets going. I'm sure there's a plan in place before making a move like this.

This is what Tasker and Brown said. They feel this is step one of a two part deal to bring in another receiver....and then the third step to be drafting one as well.

Here's how I see Diggs.

Soft hands....precision routes....still pretty quick for 30. That's the good stuff.

OTOH, he had become Buffalo's #2 receiver, by essentially becoming a possession guy. Curl ins, quick outs, etc.

The problem is, for the last year and a half, he has caught the ball, and taken a dive....assumingly to avoid the contact.

Not a bad strategy to stay healthy, but a team needs more out of their number one wide receiver.

Then add to that the tantrums, the cryptic tweeting, the drop in productivity, the focus on everything other than football....my guess is that the Bills simply felt....ENOUGH.

Especially after seeing KC deal away a much better wide receiver, then go on to win two consecutive Super Bowls.

I liked him, he gave us some thrills, but with average size and speed, at 31 years old, it's time to move on.

The Texans are now better than the KC Chiefs.

On PAPER, they're better.

Talk to me when that translates to what happens on the field.

Honestly, DCs have film on Stroud, he's going to have to improve a lot to stay ahead. We'll see what he's really made of in year two with a full year of film on him.

Don't think he meant by itself

Hmmmmmm.

The speculation is going to go into overdrive in the next few weeks.

According to this draft value chart (which are fairly (but not always) accurate when applying to past draft day trades) has the Bills #28 worth 660 points.

With the off season moves so far, and the needs of teams in the top 10, Chicago's #9 pick seems like a possible spot to trade up to grab this kid.

That pick is worth 1,350.

That's a 690 point difference. The last 5 or 6 picks in the 1st round (for 2024) are worth between 680 and 590 (for SB winner) so one can estimate the 2025 pick values.

It would probably take a little more than just swapping their 2024 1st round picks and the Bills 2025 1st round pick. But absolutely in the ballpark.

With two 2nd round picks for 2025, that may be the plan.

Re: Bills trading Diggs to texans

Stephon Diggs was a 5th round project. 2015 draft by mN?

Re: Bills trading Diggs to texans

I am not. Addition by subtraction.

If he was a douche in the locker room then we got a good deal.

We have enough skilled players now I am sure we will get 1-2 more.
