BuffaloBaumer Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 If Allen is actually the franchise quarterback and proves that he can be a good passer, this is a trade that works. If Allen fails this year, this is another total disaster similar to Sammy Watkins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turftoe Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I hate this trade. Beane just doesn't know how to trade for a WR. Corey Coleman, Kelvin Benjamin, now Diggs. Vikings GM must have a big smile on his face. 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The Bills generally HAVE to overpay. Beane makes up for it by finding overachievers elsewhere. It's impossible not to like this. All of a sudden, our WR corps looks very good. Diggs & Smoke, baby. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LEBills Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 He is an amazinggg talent. What an upgrade to our receiving unit! And it is exciting to see the start of all of our chips being pushed in. 2020 should be a very good year. He has been a bit of a problem child in Minnesota which is worrying. I expect we will add money onto his current contract and that should make him a lot happier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still happy. Love Diggs. Why? I can certainly see BOB having personal issues with Gaine and letting that affect his thought process. Dudes made more than a few odd moves.

jwhit34 Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 The player's terrific and the contract great essentially going to cost $11 million a year for 4 years and he's 26 so in his prime. The late round picks don't matter much as team gets better they have less and less chance of making team. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

17islongenough Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Love this trade. They were going to WR at 1. So they get a proven commodity in Diggs. Plus the 4th and 5th rounder would have a tough time making the team 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bag of Milk Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Please stop comparing the Diggs trade to the Hopkins one. That trade was a complete outlier, thanks to O'Brien's stupidity. A huge part of Diggs value is that he is entering his prime and signed to a very reasonable deal for many years to come. I love Diggs, he is a special play making talent and is incredible with the ball in his hands. 13 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of y’all would be crying we didn’t acquire any real talent, now complain we gave too much. Just dying to find negative ***** to complain about. Go cheer for the Jets. It’s funny. We need a Wr in not a really great free agent pool. Yes we could draft one but not only do we get a proven talent he will probably pick up our offense faster than a rookie wr Im more than ok giving up a first for a Diggs for four years.
