I think he's still upset that Dorsey & McD refused to get him the ball when the team needed a spark the most. Feels like he's sending a message of "If you dont think I'm that important to our success, look at what you have on the field without me". And again, this isnt about him getting touches as much as not being relied on or called upon when the team could use his contribution the most. I'm just guessing but there really cant be much else. Right idea but wrong thoughts. Diggs loved Chad Hall. So maybe he’s protesting whatever decision they made with Hall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 So looking like an unexcused no show on day one and the last we got from him was running out of the locker room after a playoff loss. This is what we call things trending downward. Will be interesting to see if Allen has anything to add after practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Says Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I'll give him a little time to explain himself.. but the fool KNOWS his contract makes it impossible to trade him.

Logic Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I understood Diggs being upset in Minnesota, because they were a run-first offense and showed no signs of changing, and he felt he was being underused and wasn't being allowed to reach his vast potential. I'm a lot less understanding of his being upset now. As others have pointed out, he's paid very well, he's on a very pass-first offense with a top five quarterback, and he's the focal point of the passing game. Besides, what does he really think he could get on another team that he doesn't have here? Short of joining the Chiefs, who does he honestly feel like would give him a better chance to win a ring at this point? Yes, I understand why he'd be aggravated with the coaches and potentially even Josh Allen, but I don't think that he's going about it the right way. A good teammate simply does not take his ball and go home when the going gets tough. You want changes to the way the offense is called or to what Josh is looking at when he drops back to pass? Fine. Come to offseason meetings (at LEAST the mandatory ones) and sit with the coaches and the QB and give input. Help shape the offense. Help improve the team from a scheming and play-calling perspective. I'm not bent out of shape about it. He's not the first player to skip mandatory camp and won't be the last. I DO think he's going about things the wrong way and is being unreasonable, though. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Maybe Diggs isn’t satisfied that they have done enough to help him out at Wr2?

Mango Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 I assumed that when the team restructured Diggs they had spoken to him and had a reasonably accurate temperature on the situation. It feels like checking in after the way we ended the CIN game would have been a slam dunk...apparently not? In a worst case, doomsday scenario, Diggs could tank this roster by forcing his way out. (Most NFL contracts are written with permission for restructures up front. Teams do not need to get approval before restructuring) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He signed a new deal last year, hes on a top 3 offense with a top 3 QB. Whats the angle here? He wants to be traded...to where? He wants more money...based on what? Cut bait and sign Hopkins if this gets any uglier. Can't cut him because it would cripple the cap and they likely wouldn't be ABLE to sign Hopkins . If Diggs wants to be an ass, see what they can do with the contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
