well I’m not sure absolutely ruining before it starts is better than possibly having something go wrong later 

 Diggs could be a cancer. The other guys got to show up or we look for away to get another  wr. It’s not impossible

Even if Diggs does show there is a feeling this could blow up during the season and ruin it, it’s better to remove him now 

Something tells me we're drafting multiple wrs next year.

Whatever is happening with Diggs, it seems they've had the last 5 months to figure it out. Why all of a sudden is this happening now during ota's?

I am just piecing this together with everybody else. But if I had to guess…

 

Allen (Von?) saying they totally support Diggs and what he’s doing is where Diggs takes issue. He doesn’t feel like they have his back in Diggs complaints to getting a seat at the table.

 

I get it to an extent.

 

But also, Diggs abandoned the team when they were down after that game and didn’t show up to locker clean out. From somebody who managed a lot of high level teams I likely wouldn’t have proactively searched his opinion on anything either. 
 

I don’t think you can discuss the offseason coaching changes and Diggs involvement without talking about how he behaved after the CIN game. 

I think Diggs was used to be the ladies man on the Bills (see the Vikings’ video). Now horny and single Josh is out & about and Diggs is picking up the scraps. My friends experience this when I get out of relationships.

You can have an issue with a brother and still love him.  But at no point did Josh throw Diggs under the bus over the situation.  I don't buy it's to him Diggs is referring.

It's him

I said it before the draft that I wanted us to this year. Even before this, we are going to need to load up on young cheap guys (that’s what she said).

Again this is all supposition that Diggs is talking about Josh. If so, he could be thinking that Josh is making him look bad, or trying to make himself good, but over-praising the relationship whilst it’s in a bad place. Or Josh isn’t being completely honest about what led to the offensive issues at the end of the season, instead blaming communication. But, as ever, Difgs is so cryptic he could be speaking about anyone. And I doubt he’ll be allowed in front of a mic if he does turn up at training tomorrow.

At this point it doesn’t matter who it’s about in the org. Whoever it is is on a scale somewhere between bad and worse.

All McDermott said was he was ‘concerned’. Josh went into it deeper. Feels like it’s directed at Josh for that reason.

 

Good that Diggs is still revelling in talking in riddles rather than just coming out and saying it.

 

I tend to agree, since Josh talked for 11 minutes and all of the questions were about Diggs, while all McDermott said was "I'm very concerned", it does seem directed at Josh.  On the other hand...there is no restriction on players talking to each other in the off season.   Diggs can't throw the ball to himself.  If Diggs has issues with his QB, the guy he depends upon to get him the ball, and he wants to be a Bill and win a superbowl here (as Von said), he really ought to deal with any issues he has man-to-man, months ago.

Because he loves drama! Did all bills fans just ignore why he was available in the first place?

If it’s about the Bills at all. Someone said earlier it could refer to his brother’s situation and they have a point, even if I responded bluntly at the time.

 

Agree, if it is about the Bills, then Diggs is on a one man bridge burning mission.

This is getting juicy

Diggs is probably rubbing his fingers together reading this thread. He loves this.

Wait until Jefferson demands to be traded.

he will (justifiably) ask for the most WR money ever. The Vikes will push back and we’ll see him pout too. Then it will all work itself out and no big deal.

What is your information on this point?

[Nihilarian]

Makes me wonder if this continues... if Beane will find a way to get D-Hop into a Bills uni.

how long before a trade can be judged?  2, 3 years?  What was looking like a win-win seems to be heavily favoring Vikes now.

[3rdand12]

Its really very disappointing.

 He is hurting innocent Fans who cheered greatly for him

What did Josh lie about?  At least that would get Diggs mad?

 

I feel like it's about Josh claiming it isn't football related. Which everyone knows is cap.
