You do know this is maybe the best WR draft in NFL history right and there isn't a place anywhere in the first round where a team can't get a true high quality WR1 prospect.
So the Cardinals are currently weighing all options on a team utterly devoid of talent
For as much as the Cardinals and Chargers need a WR, and are in prime position to take one from the Big 3, it would be tough to say no to trading down and getting TWO 1sts in this draft and use them both on WRs.
Like, which is a better 1st round haul:
Nabers at #5
or
Brian Thomas Jr AND Ladd McConky

........classy
Speaking of classy, you know what that comment was in response to?...
Diggs made an RIP post for Vontae Davis. And the Bills fans went off in the comments calling Diggs every name short of some hard-r racial slurs, telling him to kill himself, etc.
One outside commenter was taken aback by the Bills fans' behavior and called them bitter.
So yeah, stay classy Bills Mafia.

@BlackbeardThe Bills fan dinguses on social media do not represent this amazing fan base as a whole. If Diggs doesn’t understand this, then I question whether he is as intelligent as some think he is.
There are plenty of posters on this board who 1. claim to have no social media and 2. hate on Diggs here. I think it's unfortunately VERY representative of the general fanbase right now. That will likely change as we get some time and distance and folks go back to realizing how great he was here and how little he did that was actually bad or offensive.

Becuase a small segment of the population on X feels the need to call out players and said players get a bad taste in their mouth
We have practically 300 combined pages of threads of people hating on Diggs here on OBD. I wouldnt call it a small segment and it certainly isnt exclusive to twitter. It's a disease across the entire fanbase. Over-entitled and miserable.

The NFL tells them not to announce it anymore. It's been that way for years now. They will even make them use up half their clock on draft night. It's all part of the "suspense"
Yeah, didnt the Panthers get scolded last year for turning their pick in too early?

With the very first pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Chicago Bears select Jayden Daniels, QB, LSU.
Chicago is not the place for a crybaby with pink fingernails and a pink iPhone protector. Daniels was the most accurate QB in college football, has incredible speed and mobility, and most importantly, has a good head on his shoulders. Daniels’s arm is plenty strong and he is a very quick processor. He is not Justin Fields 2.0. Flame away!
Spoiler alert: We’re willing to listen to offers for pick 9.
@H2o and the team formerly known as the Redskins are on the clock.
A monkey wrench in the works right away! Love it!

Any where near Andre reed? Who did it for a living? If your not able to understand that then you have not been watching football period for a very long time.
That's not what you said tho. "Imagine Diggs going over the middle" means he doesnt/wouldnt do it.
Definitely not as much or as well as Reed. But Diggs was a warrior out there. Regardless of how poorly Bills fans want to speak of him now that he is gone.

imagine Diggs going over the middle? Yeah me neither. Diggs in many cases catches ball and falls down to avoid getting hit. This is fine I get it. This is how he plays. But Andre was fearless in an era where they were still allowed to take your head off. Don’t get it twisted. He was a true alpha receiver. It was Jerry rice and him. 1a. 1b. Diggs isn’t even in the top 10 today. And has certainly never been 1 a or b at any time.
If you dont think Diggs has ever gone over the middle of the field then you havent been watching Bills football the past 4 years.

Valid point, and we absolutely agree that Diggs didn't choose the right time or apparently the right words (whatever they were) to constructively call out a teammate.
That leaves the point that you CREATED words from Diggs when even Graham, who was right there, didn't hear what Diggs actually said.
Second, you implied that Josh didn't know very well that his on-field decision making cost his team a win - when in the context Tim Graham gave in his podcast (he was disconsolate, sitting there in his pads with a towel over his head, clearly taking it hard) there is every reason to believe he knew very well.
I repeat - I KNOW you're better than this.
What did I "create"? I'm in this thread multiple times saying we have no idea what was said. You're probably being too literal again if you think I actually think Diggs said "your dumb decisions and 3 ints cost us the game". lol of course he didnt.
My point was that Josh KNEW it was his dumb decisions and 3 ints that cost us the game and didnt want to hear anything more about it from anyone, other than the guys telling him "dont worry, we'll get em next time".
The one thing you are correct about is that I AM better than the little credit you are giving me in your assumptions

Be better.
First of all, in the original source, Tim Graham on the Tim Graham and Friends podcast, Graham described how disconsolate Allen was after the game, really taking the loss hard, sitting there after the game at his locker in his pads still, with a towel over his head.
Second, even Tim Graham - who was there - didn't know what Diggs said to Allen, so you can stick your "didn't want to hear...." creation somewhere.
I have no idea what "players quitting throughout the 2022 season" means.
Last, there are constructive ways and destructive ways to call a guy out. If you want to actually ahve a constructive impact, you need to do things in a constructive way.
I literally called Diggs an a-hole to end my post. Illustrating that just because he was technically correct, it doesnt mean he carried himself the right way in order to successfully get his point across.

Good job, yall. Looking forward to 2.0

At the same time Josh never threw Diggs under the bus for playing like crap in the playoffs (when generally Josh plays great in the playoffs) and more specifically for dropping an absolute dime that would have gone for like 60 yards against the Chiefs.
Neither of them have ever publicly called the other out. But that's not to say Josh has never hit Diggs with a comment/criticism/suggestion face to face. The story here (well, there is no real story), isnt what Diggs said. It's that Josh reacted. But who can blame him? He knows he played a bad game. He just didnt want to hear what Diggs was saying at the time. Whatever it was.

Coming up to him in the locker room and making a stupid comment when he's already down on himself accomplishes what exactly? That's not leadership or teamwork. That's an emotional player letting his emotions get the best of him, as usual.
We have no idea what Diggs said to him. Could have been a dumb comment, could have simply been "wtf was THAT bro?"

I don’t. Just reading into what’s being reported it’s quite the thing to be saying to the guy who’s carrying the franchise the very first week.
What I actually care about regarding this type of event is if anyone got into Diggs’ face after the multiple let downs in big moments over the course of the past 3 playoffs. Especially our elimination game against the Chiefs this past season where he was targeted 8 times for 3/21/0, 2 drops.
Guy let potentially the biggest play of the game go through his hands to start the final drive where the FG was missed.
I doubt it anyone did.
Telling that we dont have anyone on the team willing to get into guys' faces other than Stef Diggs.

for a guy supposedly obsessed w winning he has a funny habit of leaving good teams for worse ones
Say what?
I dont think anyone would argue that the 2019/2020 Vikings were better than the 2020 and beyond Bills.
And Texans are about as hot as you can get right now and very reminiscent of that same young Bills team of 4 years ago.
He didnt skip town just to join the Panthers and Cardinals.

meh. being right is easy imo
making it work when things aren't going right is much more difficult but that's what actual winners do
Only so much one WR can do 🤷♂️

Well it's Josh's team now and there is NO ONE left that would dare call him out, even if/when he is playing like crap and possibly not as dedicated to his craft as he needs to be. So we'll see.
Interesting enough, Diggs has never actually been WRONG about any of his many complaints over the years.
Zimmer and the Vikes' run-first offense.
McD's coaching in 13 seconds
Players quitting throughout the 2022 season.
Josh checked out and befuddled in the Cincy game.
Dorsey on the wrong track to start 2023.
Sorry Josh didnt want to hear that his dumb decisions and 3 ints cost us an easy Jets win.

Diggs had one real issue…his obsession with winning. I think his desire to win and how he wears it on his sleeve gets misunderstood greatly with Diggs. He is not the Diva “me first” WR who cares more about his stats than winning that some fans and media try and make him out to be.
The real issue with Diggs is quite simple. He knows he is on the back part of his career and his window for a Super Bowl is closing fast as a player. And he has lost faith that Buffalo can get over the hump before he is done.
I have no doubt he genuinely loved his time in Buffalo in terms of the fans, experience, his teammates, etc. But I also have no doubt he sees the team in a mini rebuild mode and he had no desire to risk his last couple years of being at the top of his game on a team looking at the potential of taking a step back with this much roster turnover this season when it was already not a team getting over the hump to begin with.
I won’t say he is in “Decline”, I mean even with lower stats back half of last year, plenty of time he was wide open and beating his man and Josh missed the throw or had just gone elsewhere. His stats didn’t go down because he wasn’t getting open, they went down because we ran more and spread the ball around more. But Father Time is undefeated, so there may be a slight decline or one coming soon, but I think Diggs is still a good WR1 right now with still some of the best feet and routes in the game.
So I think he is a legend of the game player in the future, I think it should be more a “mutual parting of the ways” scenario rather than a bitter split. Not sure he makes it into the Bills Wall of Famer category only being here 4 years and not finishing his career here or winning a SB, but also wouldn’t rule it out either.
No hard feelings from me, more of a I think it’s good for both sides scenario in my mind. Diggs gets his move to an ascending team and Bills have no more Diggs questions all season and Allen can spread the ball around which is what he does when he is at his best.
I can’t wait though for Allen to remind Diggs that Allen “Is him.” when we beat them when we face them this season.
100%
Thank you.
This over the top besmirching of Diggs after he leaves by the Mafia has been pathetic. Really reminds me that the fanbase peaked in 2021 as well. Since then we've become nothing but over-entitled, miserable pricks. We can go on a 6 game win streak and have the most miserable time.\
I'm with you. The team didnt accomplish enough for him to get on the Wall of Fame in just 4 short years. But he absolutely should be a legend who is welcomed back in Buffalo any and every time.
I wish him well (expect when we play him). Onward and Upward.

Right on time for the annual stories to leak out in the hopes that a top prospect might fall in the draft. Beane must really want Nabers something fierce. 😂
Haha I thought that too. But to think any of these Big 3 WRs arent going to be divas in their own right soon enough is just naive.

For everyone lining up to talk ***** about Diggs after he's gone, even though we got 4 great years out of him, careful what you wish for...
WRs are gonna WR. Just go with it.

The Stephen A. Smith-ization of sports tv shows is why I don’t watch them anymore. Who sits and watches two guys yelling at each other about things that dont even matter in life?
I only do this for PTI which is the one and only "duo-ing talking heads" show that is needed. Everyone else can gtfo.
edit: Just watched the clip in the OP. That was the most obnoxious 1min13sec I've ever seen out of this duo. The talking over each other while arguing nothing. Are they not in the same room? Seemed like both of them could use a vacation. Awkward at the end.
Looks like Florio and Simms have a worse relationship than Josh and Diggs ever had!

That’s way too much for me. The Bills are in a rebuild that will take 2 off-seasons to complete. Giving up all of those picks for 1 player will delay that rebuild further and certainly doesn’t make this team a championship contender this year.
Yeah I dont disagree. And I dont think it will happen either. But it's fun to come up with the possibilities and post about in April.
