Real McClappy Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Just keep feeding him every week at least 10 targets a game and life will be good for the Buffalo Bills and our fans.

Dude is such a fraud. and it was a win win. Diggs wasn’t happy there and they got great value for him. Obviously, it’s huge for us. I guess it depends how good Jefferson will be. but crying about stuff two games into a season is just dumb. Yep. If I was a Minnesota fan, I would be far more upset with the lack of return on their ridiculous investment in Cousins... 1 2

I couldn't resist I had to pile on Rocko: Rocko: Stick to your day job. What did the Vikings end up with? A mediocre rookie WR, 3 picks in 2021 who contribute nothing this season & a 7th rounder on IR. Vikings 0-2 & Cousins looks horrible without Diggs. Meanwhile genius Beane and the Bills are 2-0 & Josh Allen looks like the NFL's MVP with Diggs as his #1 WR.

Rico Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 I remember some people saying that Thielen was better than Diggs. 3

I like it. Too bad many were thrilled the team got a #1 for Diggs, said he was going to be a headache and that he was not a true WR1

Allen, Daboll and McD are in a pivotal year.. we cannot wait 2 or 3 years for them to develop.... our window is now. Exactly. This is the move a GM makes when he knows the future is now. The Bills have a two-year window with Josh still on his rookie deal. After that, things get complicated... 1

The Bennett trade changed the balance of power in the AFCE. It’s not far fetched, at least so far, to suggest the trade for Diggs might do the same. 6
IDBillzFan Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 1 hour ago, Augie said: The one contested ball Josh threw that was TAKEN by Diggs probably would have been a pick in the past. That one play said it ALL. Exactly right. I can't wait to see if Davis can show that ability to win contested catches. He certainly looked to be that guy in the training camp video. But you NEED these types of receivers in the NFL today, and it's great to FINALLY have one. 1
WideNine Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Did not see this Syracuse article earlier this year and maybe its in the TBD archived articles, but a lot of great insight and comments from Beane about bringing in Diggs and why he gave up what he did to swing the deal. https://www.syracuse.com/buffalo-bills/2020/04/buffalo-bills-trade-for-stefon-diggs-among-10-worst-moves-of-offseason-says-cbs-sports.html

He did throw that playoff td pass to Rudolph that somehow wasn’t called offensive PI. Compare that push off to several OPIs called this year. Ridiculous imo. 1
billsfan89 Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 Most Viking fans hated the trade, the only positives were that at least if they traded him they got good value. Personally loving Diggs...
Kwai San Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 3 hours ago, atlbillsfan1975 said: Yep, but you know why it is. The Bills haven’t been good for a long time so anything they do will not work out. It’s easy to say that. It neglects to consider everything we know about Beane and McDermott over the past 3+ years and what they have been building. Give it a few good wins over the Rams and Chiefs and everyone will want to join the Wagon. Diggs is amazing, Maybe it was the white gloves he had on Sunday, but his hands are huge. It’s no wonder he can make the plays he can. That WAGON is filling up fast already.....wins against Rams and the wheels will be flattening out .... good lord they win against the Chefs and the city will be burned down and the tires will outright explode!!! GO BILLS!!! 1

What a great feeling knowing a GM is going to make that call and be willing to pull the trigger GMs are gunna stop picking up Beanes calls LOL! Im kidding but now that I think about it they'd be smart to.
FlaFitz1 Posted September 22, 2020 Posted September 22, 2020 In revisiting what Buffalo gave up and Minnesota received in exchange for Diggs it actually looks worse for the Vikings now than just the production the Bills are getting. The first turned out to be Justin Jefferson who, it's very early, has 5 catches for 70 yards through two games. They traded the 5th round pick (which Buffalo got for Wyatt Teller) for '21 4th round pick and traded the lower of Buffalo's two 6th round picks (also acquired for Teller) to Baltimore for #225 in the 7th which they used on Kenny Willekes who is spending the year on IR and a 5th in '21. So basically they got nothing out of it this year except potential in Jefferson and a couple of late picks next year they hope they can hit on for depth. 1
