Haha— love the edit to the thread title. Framing it as Bodine and Teller and a 1st for Diggs really puts things in perspective! 

That does sum it up nicely. 
And we still will have a few posters crying ??

Truth.  He’s got the goods, but I’d like to be more comfortable with his attitude.  The ONLY thing that scares me about him is that I don’t want off the field problems that seemed to be brewing in Minny.

Hey... I think that John Brown looked pretty good last year...

 

Another guy some people said wasn't a #1 WR...

Love this trade.   They were going to WR at 1.  So they get a proven commodity in Diggs.  Plus the 4th and 5th rounder would have a tough time making the team

 

EDIT: The 4th and 5th rounder would have been packaged, with 22, to trade up for Lamb or Jeudy. And, while both appear to be potential elite talents, Diggs is proven elite, and has 4 years at an avg around 11 million... For a #1? That's pocket change, now, and the price will only go up!

 

Good deal, in that light.

Buffalo said they needed to score points.  Well, they're going for it now.

 

Steep price to pay, but under team control for a reasonable price these next few seasons and not demanding a new deal like Hopkins reportedly is.

 

This is a force-multiplier of a move.  

 

I thought they needed to go big this off-season or go home.  They're going big with this acquisition.

It's true. I just didn't want to figure it all out and MLJ nicely did it

I'll re-do his deal, but being he's got four years left, he's gonna take less than what he would get based on his production.

 

Add another year, some more guaranteed money, and incentive based numbers to pump it up to look like he's got a top deal.

Well we definitely have the shortest group in the league. There's that.

Hmmmm can you compare the chiefs and bills receiver heights for me please? Include Kelce and Knox too please.

Diggs is a crazy head case. Good luck trying to control him McDermott. Least respected guy on the entire Vikings team per the other players. 

 

Yes, such a head case that he essentially raised his brothers starting at age 14, chose his college based on his proximity to them, is a father now himself, has never been arrested, and a quick Google search shows that he's respected as an incredibly hard worker. 

 

If anybody throws around any head case or "diva" nonsense about Diggs they're completely wrong.

‘The 4 and 5 don’t get you close enough to where Lamb or Jeudy go. It would be more like 22+2nd round pick.

I came here to echo the same line, we overpaid. Then I did some reading...didn't realize his age and 3 more years at around 10mm/year. That aside, I like the player himself. Seems like an inspired hard working man. We didnt get a discount, but we didnt overpay.

That's really pretty cheap - Cooper's getting $20M

And that's why we'll probably have to re-up the contract....

I don't think they have to. We'll see but I think Diggs will be fine playing on his deal.
