The Vikings got rid of Diggs AND got the best WR in the NFL with the pick.

 

Its the NFL equivalent of striking gold.

OL = band aid application; RB= who cares; TE?  Might help probably won't see the ball much as he's a rookie and Mcdermott is a scared, conservative guy when it comes to playing rookies.  Relative to the improvements our main rivals have made, we've gone backwards this off-season.

 

 

uhhh...

 

0k then.

Until it’s time to pay JJ. And they haven’t won a thing either.

Rebuilding in we need a few more years. We are not going to win next year. Hence no Hopkins or other bigger moves. 
 

The O improvement is debateable. Nothing we have not done in other years. Harris, Harty, Sherfield, McGov, Kincaid, etc are not sure thing, pro bowl player signings. We are hopeful they work out but are the sane level as Saffold, Crowder, E Sanders, OJ Howard, Quiss, and more. 
 

Doesn’t mean it won’t work and we have a solid year. Just seeing the other side that could see these not moving the needle. Hopkins to the Bills and they are likely Super Bowl favorites and the talk is how are you going to stop them. Quite different than the I like what they did and think they could be better. 

 

Gotta disagree.  We upgraded on the O-line, at RB, and at WR.  People are sleeping on Harris a bit - his issue is injuries, but when healthy, he'll be a revelation.  We will finally have a running game.

 

Obviously, Kincaid hasn't played yet - but he has the skills to create real match-up problems for defenses, in a way that we have not been able to do.  Harty & Sherfield both address weaknesses we had in our WR corps last year -  both have great hands, are physical and get good YAC.  Shakir and Cook are both coming into a pivotal 2nd year after showing a lot of promise as the season went on last year.

 

If Davis can rebound, and Brown can take that next step - this will be the best offense we have had in the JA era, and possibly in Buffalo's history.

They haven’t even won a playoff game with him.

Interesting that the new WR coach met with him as well.  Seems that a combination of wanting more input on game planning, getting the ball more, and not having input on the hiring process for the new WR coach could be at least part of the reason for the current situation with Diggs.

I think they’re going to happily pay JJ.

[Buffalo Super Fan]

As a Buffalo Bills fan I support Stefon Diggs over Sean McDermott. Sean McDermott whatever he says isn’t relevant because the Buffalo Bills can’t move Stefon Diggs it’s easy to fire in

head coach Sean McDermott. If I owned the Buffalo Bills this problem would be settled. This goes back in my opinion to Stefon Diggs being very upset losing for two years in a row in the playoffs and Sean McDermott not getting his act together as a head coach. I don’t think Sean McDermott respects Stefon Diggs talent making sure he gets the football. As a Buffalo Bills fan for 49 years I don’t respect Sean McDermott. Respect is earned and Sean McDermott lost me with the Kansas City Chiefs playoff game two years ago. Stefon Diggs wants to win and Sean McDermott wants to play mind games. I would fire Sean McDermott making offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey the new Buffalo Bills head coach and giving Stefon Diggs a raise with a guarantee he is getting the football in my opinion. Go Bills! Let’s Go Buffalo

Thats a lot of IF's. And thats my point. I am a Bills fan so hope these moves pan out. But I would give all those back for Hopkins or similar. A bunch of mediocre guys behind Diggs does not move the needle much in my opinion. 

 

On the flip side - If any of our rivals signed these exact guys nobody would blink an eye.

Sure. Depends on what he asks for though. Thinking it’s going to be a lot.

Obviously. But they haven't won a thing and "getting rid of diggs" isn't a net positive despite this thread and drama. Sheesh.

I would have been bummed if the Chiefs got Harris, or the Bengals got Kincaid. 

 

I know what you're saying to an extent.  But as much as I hate them, I have to look at the blueprint the Patriots set.  They never would have even considered a Diggs/Hopkins kind of combo of elite receivers. They only invested in an elite receiver once, and that didn't pan out for them.

 

It was more about the trenches, and building more physical teams.  I don't think we need to do the exact same things, but I've never been on the Hopkins train.

Again, this is all about Hopkins isn’t it? That’s okay, I’d love to have him too. Two to tango and all that though and we don’t really know what his demands or preferences are right now. 
 

As for the fill ins being “mediocre” we have no idea how Kincaid is going to look here. A rookie sure, but maybe he’ll be a revelation.
