  1. DEEP THREAT !! that's what is missing and needed ! bills will likely get that with first pick in draft whether they move up or stay at 28. i also see them adding another wr via free agent
  2. beane indicated, but did not divulge, there were more than one reason(s) for parting with diggs. WHAT CHANGED ?? diggs was a known diva before he got here. they knew, like most wr1's he wanted alot of targets, they knew all his warts. the unspoken final nail ? josh allen got tired of coddling him. that relationship soured. he gave his blessing to move on.
  3. Josh had better QB Rating when NOT throwing to Diggs
  4. #1- she can sell it (so thats true)...if she meets certain conditions....see the agreement "Transfers" #2- there are PSL markets already for every other nfl team. it's a virtual certainty there will at some point, be one for bills PSL's. The bills are just saying, we have nothing to do with those aftermarkets. #3- Dallas PSL's do sell for more than the initial fee (so thats true). but they are more the exception than the rule. check on the browns & jets for a more likely outcome that can be expected for the bills PSL's. #4- the important thing to the bills is that whoever you transfer the PSL to.....signs a newly created iron clad PSL agreement between the bills and the new Licensee.
  5. diggs only had that $3.5 mil in guaranteed money after this season anyways. last part of the $70 mil guaranteed money. it cost the texans nothing more than they were obligated to do......just gave him the money they owed sooner. to me, this signals he is an expensive (early 2nd round pick) 1 yr rental. he's moving on to a different team for 2025 the big question is wether he will do better than the $19 mil/yr AAV he already had in his current contract. texans are correct that diggs should be completely happy knowing he controls his future. all thats left is for him to have a monster year.
  6. only if his new deal is for more than $19mil/yr
  7. please....back in the day, we used to carry people INTO the stadium....lol
  8. the bills will absolutely replace diggs. we will have another WR1 to get excited about. vegas says the bills are a Top 5 team.....and likely to remain that way as long as Josh is healthy. COACHING is what's holding this team back. McClappity isnt even smart enough to run 13 seconds off the clock to close out a game. Squibb the kickoff (run 3 seconds off clock) 1st down - instead of laying 15 yards off kelce and tyreek....you do the exact opposite. get up on the line and deliberately mug them. commit a 5 yard penalty (run another 2-3 seconds off clock) 1st down (2nd play) - repeat penalty (run more time off) 1st Down (3rd play) - do it again 1st Down (likely final play - defend a hail mary
  9. another way to look at diggs cap history with bills bills got 4 years of elite level play out of diggs for an ave cap hit of $19.7 mil/yr fair value for both team and player. he's simply not worth the higher cap hits going forward. 2020- $14.8 2021- $ 6.4 2022-$11.7 2023- $14.9 2024- $31.0 TOTAL- $78.8 4yr/ave $19.7
  10. i'm guessing they play him in the slot.....absolutely perfect for his elite route running
  11. NO WAY two 1st's, one early 2nd & two 4th's ?? for one early 1st ?? draft history bills last two years 2nd round picks: 2023 - Torrence 2022 - Cook while the thought of a top ten pick is enchanting.....i'd rather take my chances and keep the picks i have
  12. interesting that shady reveals diggs brother, told shady before it happened, that stefon was getting traded to houston. easy money in vegas for insiders.
  13. "And the BS of PSL as an investment. Give me A break. The ticket rep who used to work for the Cowboys told her some of the ones in Dallas go for $250,000. Oh OK LOL." in the PSL agreement it clearly states in SEC 4e "Transfers": The Licensee acknowledges that(i) there is currently no market and no guarantee that there will ever be a market for resale of PSL's. (ii) none of Licensor, ECSC, PSL Agent or TeamCo., or their agents has represented that there will be a market for PSL's, (iii) none of Licensor, ECSC, PSL Agent or TeamCo. or any other person is under any obligation to create or cause to be created such a market and (iv) Licensee shall have no claim against Indemnitees for any purported loss of value of the PSL(s) or inability to transfer or sell a PSL for a desired price or any price at all.
  14. the 40th overall pick in 2024 is worth exactly the same as the 40th overall pick in 2025. for those who disagree, i will trade you my 2024 fourth round pick for your 2025 third round pick. in fact, we can do this every year if you like. while were at it, i will trade you my 2024 second round pick for your 2025 first round pick.......every year if you like.
  15. only Josh is irreplaceable the bills can win with or without diggs.
  16. this is all approximate: not sure how this new bills contract money combined with his old minnesota contract Stefon Diggs signed a 4 year, $2,507,713 contract with the Minnesota Vikings. YEARS 2015-2018 entry level Stefon Diggs signed a 5 year, $72,000,000 contract with the Minnesota Vikings, and an average annual salary of $14,400,000. YEARS 2019- 2023 Stefon Diggs signed a 4 year, $96,000,000 contract with the Buffalo Bills, an average annual salary of $24,000,000. with $70 mil guaranteed. YEARS 2024-2027 NFL is a semi-hard cap. you can spread out the cap hit over many years at different increments, but eventually you must pay in full. from year to year they can play cap games like taking all the current year base salary and converting to signing bonus and push that into future years. Diggs may or may not ever see the full $96 mil. he will get the full $70 guaranteed. 2020 the bills took a cap hit of $14.8 2021 the bills took a cap hit of $6.4 mil 2022 the bills gave diggs $24.5 mil in CASH. but only took a $11.7 mil CAP HIT charge. pushing theoretically $12.8 cap hit into the future. 2023 the bills gave diggs another $24.5 mil in CASH (now $49.0 mil in cash). but only took a $14.9 mil CAP HIT. pushing theoretically $9.6 cap hit into the future 2024 bills trade diggs to Texans. time for bills to pay up the past years team friendly cap hit bill. he was scheduled to count $27.8 on bills cap. 2024 texans will pay diggs $19 mil in CASH (now $67.9 total cash). Essentially there is no more guaranteed money remaining. 2024 bills are being charged $31 mil in DEAD CAP.
  17. thats why i only buy retired ring of honor players
  18. kudos for uncovering the shift to houston if im reading this right....you ignored your scoop and bet buffalo.....bummer....lol
  19. kudos to this TBD poster noticing on SATURDAY the line moving diggs to houston https://www.twobillsdrive.com/community/topic/253911-to-my-gamblers-interesting-odds-change-regarding-where-diggs-plays-in-24/
  20. Bad Short Term 2024 - disaster $31 mil dead cap hole for an elite player not on team. (pretend he got injured like von if it helps) Good Long Term 2025-2027 - clears alot of cap space. you can buy alot of groceries with that savings (cap hit zero going forward) 2025 - $27.3 mil 2026 - $28.4 mil 2027 - $22.5 mil
  21. The Bills say they grew their season ticket base to 63,767 in 2023. That's the most ever for the organization. The team projects that number to grow to 64,000 for the 2024 season. https://www.wkbw.com/sports/buffalo-bills/heres-how-buffalo-bills-season-ticket-prices-are-changing-for-the-2024-season
  22. #1 - what happens to the STH who keeps his seats for the full 30 years of the PSL's life. what is the PSL worth to them after 30 years. i'd say zero ? maybe the right to purchase the next PSL for stadium renovations ? #2- what happens to the STH who sells after 20 years ? doesn't the new owner only transfer over the remaining 10 years. what's that worth ? probably less than the original initial fee #3- what happens to the STH who sells in 10 years ? if you look at the history of the browns and jets....it's for less than they initially paid.
  23. "season-ticket ACCOUNT HOLDERS".......safe to assume most account holders have at least two tix, some more. i myself have 6 tix
  24. Only 1.6% of season-ticket account holders (all of whom have premium club-seat locations at the current stadium) have been invited to the Stadium Experience in Amherst Among the people who have been invited, 96% have visited the Stadium Experience or scheduled a visit, and 75% of the account holders who have visited have signed PSL agreements for club seats. https://buffalonews.com/sports/professional/nfl/bills/buffalo-bills-new-stadium-personal-seat-license-ryan-ohalloran-column/article_0fdb8c78-edc3-11ee-8861-b3348dac0c5b.html (of the 25% who didn't agree to new club level seats immediately on first offer....i bet more than half of them get seats in a less expensive area on their second chance meeting. so that initial 75% will likely go to 85-90%)
