Tyreek Hill was worth 2x 1sts. Diggs is worth a 2025 2nd? Ouch


Eh. Tyreek is more valuable IMO. Definitely thought they’d at least get a first or second without giving up anything other than Diggs. 
 

Surprised it wasn’t a straight trade. 
 

Worst part about it all is you’ve just given a second year QB, in the same conference, who blew the doors off the league a valuable weapon underneath… Texans will be a problem this season unfortunately.

Why would we not wait until after June 1st to lessen the blow if there was no picks we were getting in this draft?  That makes no sense to me

 

Cant the Texans take on a bunch of that cap? Probably why we're sending so many picks with him just for a 2025 2nd.

Depends if Diggs was injured down the stretch, or if his game truly dropped off.  

 

He's on wrong side of 30 and once the decline starts, it usually goes fast.  I think Stef will have 2 solid seasons, it's fair comp IMO (also considering his contract)

The thing that people always fail to understand is that when a player is on a bad/expensive contract, it always factors into the value you get back in a trade.

That's certainly what happened here.

So let me get this straight...

 

We got a 2nd round pick(the Vikings) and traded Diggs, a 4th rounder this year and a 5th rounder next year? AND just took a $31 million cap hit this year too?

 

 

Are you fvcking kidding me?? Where is the money coming from to do this?

Now we are like $25 million over the cap again.

Ha all good.  I mean the cap hit on this gross, really surprised they did pulled the trigger this year, it makes me wonder if something happened behind the scenes that is gonna come out after the fact.

 

Stephen A said he knows for a fact Diggs wanted out.

No he didnt. Sam Darnold or JJ McCarthy is starting for the Vikings. He’s getting essentially a very early 2nd rounder for a 30 year old declining WR who is a pain in the ass
