Just noticed he will only turn 23 this April. Obviously was a raw prospect last year, but surprised everyone by making the final roster as a 7th round pick. Do we think he has a chance to become a legitimate part of the DE rotation this season? McD's thoughts on that would certainly impact how the Bills are looking at the rest of FA and the draft. Gotta think the kid has been a workout warrior over the past 12 months, turning that kid's body into NFL-readiness. Thoughts?

Bad reporting by the NY Post, is all it is. Mods, feel free to close.

Yeah, just looked it up. Those are the terms of the extension he signed w/ Minnesota in 2018. Closing thread.

From this NY Post article linked on front page: The Bills and Vikings eventually agreed on Buffalo sending a first-, fifth- and sixth-round pick in 2020 and a fourth-round pick in 2011 for Diggs and a seventh-rounder. Diggs then ended up agreeing to a five-year extension worth $72 million and $40 million in guaranteed money with the Bills, who made the playoffs after second-place finish in the AFC East last season. Huh? ?

The only reason the Pegulas could purchase both the Sabres and Bills is because they took the indoor lacrosse Bandits as a throw-in. Everybody knows this.

@Rk_Bills86 -- click your own link. I went to Spotrac before I even posted. The Bills have 27M under the cap with their Top 51, but that doesn't include the ST pickup from the Steelers (Matakevich). He's definitely a T51 guy. Also doesn't include Taiwan Jones or Dean Marlowe. I'd guess they have about 22M or so at this point.

What do you mean? Don't bring Robbie Gould into this discussion.

Only thing that worries me with this guy is his injury history (and the fact he's recovering from a Jones fracture). Otherwise, I love it.

27M -- via that very link.

Yeah, I was going to say the same thing. With this color palette you can at least see the Ram horn in the swoosh...the hat is hideous. Didn't need to do this but whatever.

Or every year. It's an inside joke among the regulars here. All good, brother!

They also have Ed "Rutowski" playing E. Copy editing wasn't their strong suit, apparently.

They played at 9:30 in the morning?

Don't go changing your handle on us, @ScottLaw...

Oh my freaking god. What has happened to this place? Somebody start a thread about whether a 1st rounder was worth it for Diggs....please!

Houston has a HC without a brain -- that's got to be a handicap.

Here's a good trivia question: name the last time the Bills were in the top 10 in preseason o/u wins projection? I don't know the answer but it has to be a loooooooong time ago.

Some will label Allen "inaccurate" for as long as he is in the NFL...it doesn't matter what he does.

Any good RBs in that league? Edit: scratch that, there aren't.

In order of "like" -- 1. Diggs 2. Jefferson 3. Spain 4. Klein 5. Addison 6. Butler 7. Norman Not including Poyer extension here because (in my mind) that was a foregone conclusion. It would be a huge DISlike if they hadn't gotten this done.

I believe the potential "personality" problem some are fearing with Diggs is really overblown. Name one superstar receiver who doesn't always want the ball? I don't know what sort of locker room culture there was in Minnesota but we know what sort of room the Bills have. We also know that Allen is a guy his teammates love.

What I recall last season is Singletary's uncanny ability to gain extra yardage after contact -- something not many expected from a "small quick guy." With Gore gone I expect we'll see him get more opportunities. That said, I completely agree with the need to bring in at least one other RB to complement Motor.

Please remind me of the times Singletary lost yardage as a rusher.
