Big C Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Dunno where everyone is at here. I think it is a good deal. 3 years at about $15m per and then we can cut him year 4 when we have to extend Josh. This is good. Take the known commodity instead of taking a stab with pick 22. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 At pick 22 they were looking at probably the 4th best WR, maybe 5th. And the learning curve for rookies is often steep. I have no problem with the picks given up and his salary is a bargain. Not sure why anyone is bitching about, and again, the Texans weren't trading Hopkins to the Bills. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florida Bills Fanatic Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Four years at a little over $11m per year for a player like Diggs is great cap value. We already know what he can do in the league and we don't have to wait for a rookie to develop. He fits the need at WR perfectly. Some will complain about the cost of the trade but I believe that Diggs is better than any receiver we could draft at 22. Beane never ceases to amaze me with his ability to make the right moves to keep improving the team without busting the cap. I'm hoping that he has an equally impressive result in his efforts to add some pass rush talent.  6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Da webster guy Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Diggs is such a baller. Game changing difference maker for sure. My favorite non Bill to watch. Similar numbers to Smoke last year but did a ton to carry that offense with Theilen hurt basically all year.  Beane is doing what he says, fill your roster with good starters and draft bpa baby. The guy has balls.  5th and 6th rd picks are just Wyatt teller freebies. Wonder if they talked to Houston about the Nuk too?   3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norcalbillsfan Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'm sure the texans weren't about to strengthen  a AFC contender like the Bill's. We can all wish we got Hopkins but Diggs is solid. The statistics of getting a WR1 like Diggs at 22 aren't great. This way we know exactly what we are getting. And Allen gets help NOW, no waiting for a rookie to get up to speed. 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsfaninChicago Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Wow what an awesome trade!!! This is seriously like trading a 5,6, and a next year 4th to move up to a top 3Â pick in the draft for a player of need. Love it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blacklabel Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Hot diggidy dawg, a big time move. Seems like a lot to give up but those late round picks are often negligible and the 4th is in 2021.  His contract is exactly the type of deal that Beane goes after as well.  And if they weren't overly impressed with the receiver prospects this year then I give 'em credit for taking a big swing on Diggs here. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
