I believe the offense will be better as well. I think its going to be a "Wr2 by committee" unless/until 1 or more of the following. Gabe makes a contract year leap. deonte harty remains healthy and we reopen the John Brown playbook. They Shift to 12 Personnel formations. Kincaid and Knox Terrorize the League as interchangeable 1b target options. Dhop sees the light and signs on. /My $.02

Maybe Buffalo already has an offer in place and Dhop is calling bs on the jist of the article (buffalo will only give bare minimum)? :keeping the coals going:

Oh yee of little faith!

Okay boys, I think it's time to call it. Lets fall back to the Hopkins thread and regroup.

Taxes Though. NY vs TN I can def see why the titans would be interested too.

Lots of really good points brought up in here to be celebrated. State of the art training facility, electrifying qb#1, HoF tier veteran leadership and the most loyal fans in the league. It's a good time to be us. Now we just have one last dragon to slay.

That makes. I just like the odds of either of those scenarios better when you don't have another hole you need to adequately fill. Ideally, I'd like to see Gabe absolutely ball out this season and get paid (by someone else). Then we move up from the last pick of round 1 to attempt to find our next Diggs. So our core is Diggs, Round 1 future Diggs, and Shorter who by this point has rounded into the Gabe Davis we have today. Solved. Make it happen BB!

I'm just happy for future me. There I would be, watching the next draft unfold. Are we going to move up for the best shot to secure our next Diggs? Or will we just stay where we are and pick the Ed Oliver replacement? ..and we all know what that means. They would probably trade up for a cb lol

I think/hope the Oliver deal means we are going WR#1 hunting during next year's draft (if Hopkins falls through).

Colts gave us Hines. This year we give Hines back, but he's missing 7 fingers and gone on a diet.

Outside of the gadget role, I'm getting a John Brown Routes type feeling for Harty. They obviously wanted those again bad enough last year to bring back the man himself

OBJ did the same "tour" iirc. Seems like Hopkins isn't getting the offers he may have expected. The more this unravels the more I think BB is playing this very responsibly. Still might land him, but the "market" is still shifting.

I think Jimbo/Hines + Harris/Murray can get done what we need out of our run game. If the Oline can manage to open up a crease there should be ample running room, this becomes even more the case if Dhop enters the huddle.

Add me to the list of "it would be nice but I'm not worried". Until I see otherwise Diggs will show up and be ready to resume the role of the alpha receiver when the season begins. Let's be honest, the fact that he's supposedly dating margot robbie and has been seen outside his house already proves he has more discipline than i could ever hope to achive lol. I'd be holed up for the entire off-season! Just door dashing Gatorade and Energy drinks..

Thank you, sir. The beer one is better fitting for a long weekend anyway lol. Analogies aside though, in 2020 Diggs and Hopkins were each traded. In 2019 Diggs had 63 receptions for 1,130 yards and six touchdowns. Hopkins had 104 catches for 1,165 yards and seven touchdowns. It was basically a coin flip as to who was viewed as the "better" receiver, where people who valued physical measurables liked D-Hop and Team: Separation liked Diggs. Diggs hooks up with Allen and go berserk while Hopkins continued riding the qb carousel. What if the secret to actually sniffing the ceiling of Josh Allen as a professional quarterback is as simple as doing whatever it takes to bring him another Stefon Diggs? If you could make a copy of Diggs and sign him to our roster right now for the next 2-3 seasons, what would you be willing to give up? Imo that's the question we're talking about right now.

It gets even more interesting when you consider that Diggs and Dhop can both run every route out there including from the slot. I honestly don't think there's a team in the NFL with the personnel to match up against the combinations that buffalo could field. Imagine trying to set your defense while not knowing if you're going to have to deal with Diggs DeAndre OR Dalton running through the middle of the field? Unless you have Ramsey, Sauce and Gonzalez all in the same secondary you're going to have issues.

Allen & Diggs are the engine of the offense, from a skill player standpoint. The rest are like upgrades installed to maximize the performance of the engine. Signing D-hop would be like a motor swap and moving all of our upgrades from a 350 small block to a big block 454 lol. Now that turbocharger you bought during the draft to "help keep up" is sending you bus lengths into the lead. I'm hopeful Bean does whatever can be done to make this happen.

It's on!

I agree, I think Cook will be our #1. The real question is "Will Harris be better able to spell Cook and pick up short yardage than Z.Moss was?". I think the answer is clear here as well.

You boys been doin a little boozin'?

Murray only has 9 fumbles over the course of his career.Motor already has 10 during his rookie contract. He's a viable stand-in to spell Cook if Harris gets injured. Pretty sure that's going to be the extent of his roll if called upon.

Hyatt to kc?

There's alot of master baiters running around too though..

Anyone remember when we had Fred Jackson AND Marshawn Lynch and our brain trust decided to select CJ spiller with its high first round pick? I think we're being a little hard on the Beaner..
