This screams ownership wanting a “big” name. You build through the draft. Not sure you quite understand how many picks we have/had...most those picks weren’t making this team...you are looking at quantity over quality Edited March 17, 2020 by zevo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cost controlled Pro Bowler in his prime who is making not much more than Cole or John Brown. So for the Cost of Diggs + John Brown combined we are getting what people are paying for 1 Elite WR. Fantastic cap management. Now its time to buy us a pass rush!!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, shenault might still be there in the 2nd. I wasn't excited about Higgins at 22. And diggs is alot better than any FA options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROCBillsBeliever Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 21 minutes ago, 17islongenough said: 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 EDIT: The 4th and 5th rounder would have been packaged, with 22, to trade up for Lamb or Jeudy. And, while both appear to be potential elite talents, Diggs is proven elite, and has 4 years at an avg around 11 million... For a #1? That's pocket change, now, and the price will only go up! Good deal, in that light. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsVet Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 Buffalo said they needed to score points. Well, they're going for it now. Steep price to pay, but under team control for a reasonable price these next few seasons and not demanding a new deal like Hopkins reportedly is. This is a force-multiplier of a move. I thought they needed to go big this off-season or go home. They're going big with this acquisition. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeastMaster Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I'll re-do his deal, but being he's got four years left, he's gonna take less than what he would get based on his production. Add another year, some more guaranteed money, and incentive based numbers to pump it up to look like he's got a top deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nelius Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 11 minutes ago, turftoe said: Diggs is a crazy head case. Good luck trying to control him McDermott. Least respected guy on the entire Vikings team per the other players. Yes, such a head case that he essentially raised his brothers starting at age 14, chose his college based on his proximity to them, is a father now himself, has never been arrested, and a quick Google search shows that he's respected as an incredibly hard worker. If anybody throws around any head case or "diva" nonsense about Diggs they're completely wrong. 9 4 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Westside Madness Posted March 17, 2020 Share Posted March 17, 2020 I came here to echo the same line, we overpaid. Then I did some reading...didn't realize his age and 3 more years at around 10mm/year. That aside, I like the player himself. Seems like an inspired hard working man. We didnt get a discount, but we didnt overpay. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
