I mean, you’re not wrong, but a lot of this is just plain bad luck. I personally think Beane is one of the best yet one of the most unlucky GMs in the league. Von Miller - was on fire and everyone was pumped before his injury. Knox - just a bad contract. His wrist injury didn’t help. Bass - Was amazing and completely crapped the bed after his extension Diggs - was a top 3WR until week 7 last year when he fell off a cliff. I still think his 4 year production was worthy of a 1st round pick. Nobody knew Jefferson was: 1) going to be available at our pick and 2) was going to be as talented as he is. White: Top 10 CB and suffers two freak non contact injuries in 2 of his last 3 seasons. His draft picks have been pretty darn good. We still don’t know what we have in Elam, but I can’t think of any major misses. Lots of late round hits. We just dumped most of our aging vets and look to be getting significantly younger. we should have a much better cap situation moving forward as well.

3 yards??? More like 1 on average.

What historical examples provide evidence that the Bills traded Diggs to the highest bidder and not to the team that was close to being the highest bidder and was where Diggs wanted to go? Standing by…

Correct, I think It might not have been the best offer, but it was a very generous one, more than enough compensation. Players don’t always go to the highest bidder.

You mean the game where Mahomes got concussed, sat out half the game, and they still beat the Browns? You’re right, the AFC South is a weaker division, so why would the Texans take a step back like the 21 Browns? This argument you’re making is strange..

Giants might be able to trade down and still land a QB they value like Penix.

I’m sorry this doesn’t make sense to you, but then again, I didn’t intend it too. I never once said we didn’t get enough for Diggs.

At $6.5M max I’m assuming a void year or 2?

Help me out here…what could logically draw you to this conclusion? They are better coached, have a better QB and have better skill players. Plus they are coming off a better season last year than the Browns have had in 15+ years.

Easy explanation: am surprised we received a 2nd rounder for Diggs, even though value wise it’s more like a 4th or 5th. 2025 2nd = 2024 3rd and the Bills sent a 5th and 6th rounder. He had an awful 10 game stretch to close out the season and carries a pretty hefty cap charge to the new team. I’m skeptical that it was the best offer on the table because he went to the team he was reportedly the most interested in, i.e. Beane did right by Diggs.

I agree with you, what’s your point?

That’s funny because I never said any other team offered anything. Ignorance and arrogance is a dangerous mixture. Try a slice of humble pie it tastes good!

You have absolutely zero credible intel to back your claim that “only the Texans” were offering a 2nd for Diggs. What we do know is that the Texans were a preferred destination for Diggs. This has been discussed via multiple channels since the conclusion of the pro-bowl.

Exactly! Maybe the Giants learned that drafting skill players instead of a QB in the top 10 is a bad idea.

This was Diggs preferred destination and Beane did right by him, I’m not convinced this was the best offer on the table.

You paraphrased the living hell out of the real tweet.

This years first and give the Vikings their 2025 2nd round pick back for Jefferson.

Not in the new offense he wasn’t. Diggs had WR # 3 stats once JB took over.

Not the last 10 games of 2023-2024 he wasn’t. Diggs completely fell of a cliff.

We didn’t have a #1 last year either and our #3 was a #4 at best. I’m honestly surprised we got anything for Diggs looking at his last 10 games.

Not a chance 4 WRs go top 12. The last time the Giants passed on a QB to draft a skill position it didn’t work out very well for them. Denver selecting the 4th best WR at 12 when they have no QB is laughable. They are either trading up for a QB or trading down for a 1st + in next years draft to have ammo for one. There’s a good chance 5 QBs go high with Penix possibly penetrating the top 15. Personally, I think there are way too many crappy teams that will be looking to find a cornerstone QB or build the trenches first before spending a top 10 pick on a WR.

I’m picking a kicker, F Bass O’Shankovitz and his awful contract.

Jets continue to win the pre season every year.

6 QBs is a lot, but WRs in the first round would also tie the record. It’s looking like 30-40% of the first round will be QBs and WRs which is insane.

Penix envy? Most draft gurus projecting him to go first round after his pro day!
