LikeIGiveADarn Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Swap firsts for Diggs, Bills add a third day pick.
HappyDays Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Diggs makes no sense. We have Foster, Brown, and Beasley. Where would he fit? I'm all for upgrading the position but we shouldn't give up on Foster that soon and we just gave John Brown a 3 year deal. 2

The Vikings have like 4 million in cap space and would incur a 12 million dollar dead cap hit if they trade Diggs, saving like 500 thousand dollars. That means any trade of Diggs makes very little sense. Guys they can move move with no dead cap: Trae Waynes, Kyle Rudolph. Trading Adam Theilin saves something like 6 million with a 2 million dollar dead cap. Edited March 20, 2019 by MrEpsYtown

I doubt there is any legs to the Diggs rumor, just the cap issues alone make this hard to believe. However, as much as I like Foster, there is no denying Diggs is better and having him wouldn't keep them from trading for Diggs IMO. Sent them Zay and a pick for Diggs. Again, seriously doubt there is any legs here, but hey one can hope too though ha.
MiltonWaddams Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Maybe Pegula just loves the fine brews coming out of Surly these days. I know that i sure do!

phillyguy1 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 It’s got to be Rudolph. The tweet praising Bobby Johnson sounded like a passive aggressive plea to McBeane to come get him out of there.
Bills4life1924 Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Diggs would be nice. But another name I'd be stoked about is Danielle Hunter! But he too, like Diggs, would hurt vikings cap situation.

He’d be a heck of a 4 and would still be fairly involved in the offense. We aren't really tied to Brown beyond this coming season. Best case scenario for Foster may actually be one more year of development.
HappyDays Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 I could see Rudolph but he doesn't really excite me. Good red zone threat, good height and length, but doesn't really stretch the field and from what I can tell he's a below average blocker. What are we thinking it would take, a 5th?
Beast Posted March 20, 2019 Posted March 20, 2019 Maybe the Pegula’s are in Minnesota looking for someone to run their hockey franchise. 1 3

Still doesn't seem like a smart use of resources to me considering we'd have to give up probably a 2nd for Diggs. 1

Trading a 2nd for Diggs is better than drafting an unknown WR in the 2nd who more than likely wont have half the career Diggs does just based on statistics. Odds of finding an equivalent or better WR with our 2nd round pick are a losing proposition. Doesn't mean we can't, just means its a low probability. That being said, we aren't trading for Diggs. Minnesota cant afford to move him and he hasn't become a problem like AB and OBJ were where the teams rather take the dead cap imprisonment. 1 1
