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..

Was going to give you a Lombardi for the analogy, but somehow could not resist the beer emoji.
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.

Good luck defending that line up. What do you do? Bring in heavy package to
defend the Run?
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.

Of the 3 years he played meaningful time, you want to discount 2 of them? Okay let’s look at his one WOW season 2021: 202/929 avg 4.6. Guess who also averaged 4.6 YPC in 2021? Yep, Motor did and it was a below average season (career avg is 4.7 YPC). James Cook as the Bills #2 RB averaged 4.7 YPC on over 500 yards. Statistically speaking, Harris is a downgrade from Motor in both the running and passing attack, and he struggles to stay healthy. I’m failing to see anything to be “wow”d about or a reason to think we shouldn’t sleep on him. IMHO James Cook is our clear #1 and I don’t see much separation between Murray and Harris for #2.
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.

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.

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..
-
Beas was also extremely "qb friendly" when the line broke down and Josh had to go backyard football mode and make something happen.
The more I'm thinking about this pick the more I like it lol.
Not to derail from the topic too much, but if Bean goes psycho mode and grabs that burner from TN as a development wr? We could be set for LAD (life after diggs).

I'm in agreement that this will be up to Dorsey. I made the terrible mistake of picking Kyle Pitts last season in fantasy, which lead to watching more Falcons games than usual. The take away I had was that atl was trying to stick a square peg in a round hole.
They took a Jimmy Graham and tried to make him a George Kittle and his supreme athleticism was wasted trying to learn how to block on the line like a "traditional TE".
We really just need DK to block down the field at a Gabe Davis / Robert Woods level and allow him to find open holes and make Dorsey look like an offensive mastermind lol.
Sometimes when I watch KC I wonder how much is Andy Reid and how much is Travis Kelce, every time that guy mysteriously finds himself WIDE OPEN!

Yesssss. Inject it straight into my veins.
Dhop has been snakebit his entire career, saddled with abysmal qbs (barring a short spell with Watson).
Despite it, the guy just vacuums in any ball thats in his vicinity. I'm hoping buffalo lands him, or at the very least he goes somewhere else besides KC.

Obligatory "Get er done, bean" post here.

If he goes to KC, can we all just agree to never speak of this 220+ page thread again?

Personally not sold on Hyatt due to limited route tree. Seems more like a 2nd round guy to me.+1 though if we could somehow get him and Dhop both I would be thrilled. We'd have an instant boost in the short term plus the potential of having a Jaylen Waddle type waiting in the wings if he can develop the tools to function in a more conventional offense.

Speculation: Could an extension for Gabe Davis be coming too?
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
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!
