  1. What we got in return for unloading Diggs is actually a fairly good return. The Vikings second rounder will likely be much higher than Houstons would be. Not getting a pick this season stings a bit, but that pick we got will be a pretty valuable pick come 2025. Diggs is expensive, troublesome, aging, and didn't produce at his expectations the last half of last season. They did fine with what they got...I just wish it would've given us an immediate return instead of the season after. CJ Stroud likely OK'd the acquisitions of both Mixon and Diggs. They are choosing to go with acquiring talent route and ignoring the chemistry/locker room component. Things may start off ok, but those guys could become a problem in the blink of an eye. It will be interesting to watch them in the coming years
  2. This is a move you cannot afford to make when your paying a premium for a franchise QB...the picks are too valuable, and the cost for said players contract just isn't optimal for the construction of a well rounded roster
  3. If he's a major contributor in the Texans winning a Lombardi, I would take that bet He's gonna have the numbers. The question will be whether he can help take a team to the promised land I have no idea what kind of impact Diggs will have, but I would imagine he will be a factor for at least his first couple years
  4. Not just this, either A contending team that has a window to win (JA and the Bills) choosing to lose a pick or a player now for a future pick is shorting your team for now in order to have more in the future I'd rather do everything possible to contend every season that Josh Allen is our QB then to punt on one
  5. I would try to hold onto Minnys pick being they may be pretty bad this upcoming season. It would take the sting out of having no first next season if we have a high second instead of what will likely be a later mid round selection And I do love Nabers...maybe moreso than MHJ. But if I were Brandon Beane, I would stand pat and take Legette, Mitchell, or Coleman, and then double down using next year's first to get a high second and select another one. This increases the likelihood that you solve the WR issue along with still having a second this season to go and add another possible impact player to the roster.
  6. You're mistaken if you think that defensive coordinators weren't prioritizing the coverage of Diggs before anyone else Calling him closer to an afterthought is simply sour grapes on your part
  7. I don't know how much this hurts us as a team this season, but I do know those that are now ripping Diggs performance in the last half of the season and in the playoffs since he's no longer a Bill are probably not thinking about the attention he was getting which allowed guys like Shakir to make plays. That stuff matters, and now those players will have more attention coming their way. Just putting things in perspective a bit Another thing I want to comment on is that Beane has really done something very unlike him...which is to paint himself into a corner in the draft. Now the Bills have made it blatantly obvious that we need to draft wideouts, and early at that. What I'd like to see is for him to stand pat and draft a Legette, Mitchell, or Keon Coleman if he feels they are worthy of the spot they would be selected. If Beane does decide to move up, then he better be absolutely positive he's getting a star because it's going to cost us alot this year and probably next as well Beane also better hope the Texans don't beat us and advance further in the playoffs. That will make things even more embarrassing for a franchise that doesn't need anymore of that
  8. Number one wide receivers aren't easily found
  9. The draft value chart is simply a guideline for those that don't know Teams have done deals that were significantly less and significantly more on the chart, so ultimately it doesn't mean a whole lot
  10. No immediate return automatically drops the grade And each subsequent year we don't have a number one wideout, it drops more
  11. He's looking to be paid as one of the top receivers in the league Not worth it
  12. A second this season would have helped more That pick may end up being a high second also, so I would value it at that when negotiating a trade of that pick It's probably a better idea to hold onto it otherwise
  13. The major getback for Diggs needed to be something for this season. The second rounder next year is just not acceptable for a return
  14. There's two problems with Josh Allen 1. He was labeled a bust by the media, so they will always ensure to never give him the credit he deserves and will work tirelessly to make sure he's not MVP 2. He plays for a franchise that is cursed
  15. Will this guy be a difference maker vs Mahomes or Burrow when it counts? The answer is no, and that is why someone Allen can utilize to outduel him is the only correct answer when talking about who we should draft in the first round
  16. Power move by the Jets They are going to put a ton of pressure on everyone, including Josh
  17. I'll say this...Gabe Davis was made by Josh Allen, and I don't think he will be missed at all. Samuel, Hollins, and whoever else we draft is a massive improvement to our receiving group. The defense will mostly depend on if Von can be a force rushing the QB. The safety position will likely get at least one guy in the draft to compete with the current group...so while I do have concerns about the safeties and the lack of speed in our secondary, I think they should be about the same as last season. We need to get a WR and Safety that can play in this draft, and we need OL and DL prospects to groom for the future
  18. If you have a Center that appears to be a once in ten year prospect that is absolutely dominant, then yes...go ahead and draft one in the first This isn't the case, and you don't use a first rounder on a center otherwise I'd rather see a trade back if your going that route
  19. I like this kid Would be a great get. High upside player that's still not hit his ceiling
  20. People need to watch more of Samuel because he does get behind the defense for big plays on occasion. He's definitely more than a slot guy. I think his ability to make things happen after the catch has led to him being targeted more quickly which in turn has kept his YPC low, but the ability to make plays downfield is there.
  21. Davis could never get on the same page as Allen, and it led to key drops and turnovers. We want guys who can catch the ball, and we signed two of them. One a huge target, and the other is very good when he gets the ball in his hands. People complain no matter what. Allen needs help, but you get some and it's just more bitching and moaning
  22. If MHJ makes it to the Giants at six, I'm offering this year's first and second, along with next year's first and third to try and trade up
  23. There's really nothing about Hollins that indicates that he won't be a much better option than the guys we've brought in these past few seasons. His measurables are better than Davis', and he's shown to have better hands. And as you stated, he was in a terrible offense last season, but was pretty productive in the Raiders offense the prior year. A year where he helped Josh Jacobs lead the league in rushing and had 700 yards receiving and four TD's. He will have a much better QB and offense here than any other of his stops, so I like his chances to make an impact. He will be the number four receiver, and he will be involved in the offense.
  24. I honestly think Mack Hollins is a Gabe Davis level player, and that if Mack was opposite Diggs last season he would've put up similar numbers. I also would bet that he catches at least one of those two deep balls Sherfield dropped against KC, and maybe he catches them both. Dude is an upgrade on Sherfield, and is a big target with good hands to go along with similar speed and agility as Davis. That being said, I want and expect the Bills to draft either Keon Coleman or Xavier Legette and Hollins can battle for reps
  25. According to their forty times, Hollins was faster, so you could factually say we got bigger, faster and got someone with better hands than Davis in Hollins for 1/8th of the cost
