We know one thing. He’s a dumb human. Right before the draft. Uber anyone?

Giving up a first and change is a steep price to trade for a proven, top-tier wide receiver. Using two 1sts and a 2nd for an unproven rookie should be grounds for firing your GM. That is compensation for the most blue chip of QB’s. What did the Bills get from KC for KC to move from 27 to 10? That’s what you give up for a QB. Not a guy that touches the ball 8 times a game on a very good day.

If Brandon Beane spends two 1st round and 1 2nd round pick to trade up to get the 4th best receiver he should be fired on the spot. No questions asked. Kansas City didn’t give up that much trading up to our spot to get Mahomes. The Chicago trade is even worse. You can’t possibly give up that much for a rookie wide receiver. EVER. Hell, you shouldn’t ever give up that much for a proven NFL wide receiver.

Allen has to step up here? He should have been the league’s MVP last season. I don’t care if he sits on his ass and eats ice cream all day if he keeps playing at that level.

Yeah, because he probably wasn’t higher than a kite when this happened. Not worth discussing at all.

Then why was he the most targeted receiver? If there was some phantom-like injury, why did he continue to get the most targets?

I think there were many, many posters that wanted Metcalf.

So, are you saying he was injured? How so? Was he injured when he actually beat the KC defender deep and the ball went through his hands?

I also don’t believe for one second that the Bills would trade away Diggs without Allen’s blessing. They just wouldn’t. And Allen wouldn’t be saying to the Bills, “sure, Stefon and me are buddies. Do what my buddy wants.” No way. Josh wanted him out as bad as anyone. Maybe even orchestrated it behind the scenes for all we know. (Conspiracy theory) but make no mistake. Josh Allen and the Bills coaching staff and front office wanted Diggs gone. They couldn’t care less about the media.

But a lot were after the last 10 horrendous games of his Buffalo career.

You’d think a nuclear bomb was dropped with the news coverage.

It’s time to get younger. One window has closed but another is opening.

Oh yeah? Then explain McDermott taking a watered down Rex Ryan roster and making the playoffs with it.

Rex Ryan was a lazy, awful head coach. To even think he’d have more success than McDermott is stupid at best. McDermott took Ryan’s roster, stripped it to nothing, and had more success than Ryan ever thought of having.

Kind of guy you sign in case you don’t end up with a low-round or UFA target. Break glass in case of emergency.

Diggs has been traded from 2 teams under similar circumstances. #14 is the problem here. To even pretend he isn’t is ignorant. He acted the same way, if not worse, last off-season.

FWIW, Cowherd is claiming he heard Allen was getting tired of Diggs last off-season.

He deserves to talk ***** to those guys for sure. They weren’t exactly nice to him.

Some big ol’ hot takes in this thread. I remember getting roasted after I said we had a problem with Diggs after he was flapping his arms like a Teradactyl in front of Allen during the Bengals playoff game. I thought he’d be a sure fire release next off-season. It was obviously so bad with him they couldn’t wait any longer.

You sound like a Diggs groupie that is out of touch with what has been going on with the Buffalo Bills.

That would be a shame.

Diggs will be fine for the Texans the next couple of seasons. He’s like the spouse that gets caught cheating and promises to change their ways. They are on their best behavior after being caught (traded)……but only for a while.

I’ll join you. I thought for sure they would just cut him next off-season.

I’d be willing to bet the Bills would have taken less. It is obvious this trade was more about getting Diggs off the team than it was about compensation coming back for doing so.
