I think the Texans are hopeful they can replace Diggs’ production. Beane competes admirably on his field of play, IMO.

My point was, roster building is easier when all your money isn’t going to a franchise QB. We shall see, but I still take the Bills as a whole, and I respect what they are doing in Houston. The Diggs deal doesn’t move my needle much. I want to get younger, cheaper and on the proper trajectory.

Who is paying franchise QB money? That is the difference. It’s a blessing, and a curse. Yes, I just watched a Monk episode.

For what it’s worth, and for lack of a better place for me to do it, I need to eat some crow for being among the crowd who thought they’d never be so bold as to trade him due to cap implications. I was wrong. Not unhappy, but wrong.

It felt a bit like we lost our WR1 some time last Fall. Just a little more context. Part of me actually thought he was hurt. 🤷‍♂️ But he will come out fired up next year! I can guarantee you THAT!!! 😂

Any idea what it was before the trade? Did it move?

My son and his wife are down to their #17’s now, I guess. I had failed to give him grief on that. Until now. 😋

Exactly! It’s YOUR life, and it’s YOUR money. Use it as you wish, and be thankful that things like this don’t get you worked up enough that you keep telling other people how awful it is. Yes, it’s more. Decide and move on.

….it may have been an answer to his prayers. 🙏 😋

There are never any guarantees, but I don’t agree with that at all. They ripped off a bandaid. Next year it will be Von. We will get younger and cheaper, and that’s important. They have a plan in place to get a quality WR, I’m sure. It may not be one of the top 3, but maybe they have another guy or two they feel really good about.

Has this been posted yet? Maddy Glab, a reporter for the Bills' digital arm, went viral Wednesday afternoon after she could be heard saying, “There's no control over Stefon Diggs. Dude's gonna do what he wants to do. He'll look in my face and say, 'F you. ' How he treats everybody.”

I don’t like grouping and judging people like that. SOME of the WR’s are head cases, and it’s probably a good bit higher percentage than other positions. BUT, I’m sure there some Larry Fitzgerald types in the league who should not be lumped in with the head cases.

Maddy Glab and I are relieved that we no longer have him around forcing us to “like him.” It felt kinda dirty after a while.

OH NO! I wonder if they’ve signed the paperwork? Is it too late to rescind the deal??? 😂

….or maybe they love a 4th guy. The draft just got more interesting!

So, do we really want to be the Patriots here??? I’ll pass! 😋 I want to see what the numbers look like, but it’s almost like he was trying to wear people out. It seems that’s just who he is, and he will probably give it his all early on in Houston.

I think he’ll try and be on his best behavior….for the first year.

I have no argument since I have zero exposure to the process, but from what I’m reading there are serious flaws. How much was predicted vs what we are experiencing? That is the kind of thing I’d like to know, right behind a look at the draft board!!! .

These are the stories I was fearing, but knew were inevitable. It’s not even “simply” the extra cost right now, you get to marinate in a dark sense of unknown before they ever show you the sticker. Nobody likes the unknown. I get it. Good luck to all of you.

It sounds like that math is about to change, but nobody will be going hungry. That is for sure! Good for both of them!

Yes, I would recommend that too. I guess giving away BILLIONS of dollars does not get you forgiven for having billions of dollars….in your mind at least. I don’t get the hate for people you have never been in a room with. Being successful and wealthy does not make you evil, despite what you might think. It sounds angry and jealous, tbh. Do you hate everyone, or just billionaires. Where do you draw the line? How do you feel about your neighbors? You've probably met them. (This is the flip side of an argument made earlier, fyi. 😊) OK, let’s just draft somebody already………

You may have heard of some of these people. https://givingpledge.org/about “In August 2010, 40 of America’s wealthiest people made a commitment to give the majority of their wealth to address some of society’s most pressing problems. Created by Warren Buffett, Melinda French Gates, and Bill Gates, the Giving Pledge came to life following a series of conversations with philanthropists about how they could set a new standard of generosity among the ultra-wealthy. While originally focused on the United States, the Giving Pledge quickly saw interest from philanthropists around the world.” But please feel free to continue to lump people together by a single trait and judge them (incorrectly, I might add). They have a word for that. .

I think we could own the market with 2 Minute Abs!!!

Well, congrats!
