Diggs traded to Texans for picks

[OldTimer1960]

I still don’t like the idea of giving up next year’s 1st in a trade up this year, but it is a little more possible with them now having 2 2nds next year.

Where there is smoke there is fire. People have been dismissing Diggs comments but it's clear he wanted out. The guy is a diva, and a clown. 

 

Him and his brother publicly going after Allen. Loser. See ya.

Terrible return on this trade. How much of a cancer does a guy have to be behind the scenes for you to eat 31M cap hit and get rid of WR1.

Unless you lived through that era, most posting here will never know; great point! Diggs not even on the same planet!

The elephant in the room for me….. how the hell did this happen in the first place?  What is a no trade clause if you can be traded?

[The Firebaugh Kid]

EVERY douchebag on the other Diggs thread saying he wasn't posturing to be moved can kiss my ass. 

Anyone with half a brain knew there was tension here.

Honestly I hope Josh uses this as motivation. Go out there and prove Diggs isn't essential to your success. Shove it in his face.

 

This trade doesn't happen unless Allen tells Beane he's good with it.

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

Can we go up and get Harrison?

[SmokinES3]

31 million in dead cap. It would have cost just over 3 million to keep him???? Wow, talk about lies with everything being "fine"

This is a mess, but now if we don’t take WR’s in the 1st 2 rounds, we are f’d up.  We can’t make it on what we have, but I know he’s on the wrong side of 30.

 

I think with 2 1sts and 3 2nds in the next 2 drafts - you have ammunition to move into the top 10 of the draft without giving up too many of your 2024 picks.

Which is why local media is going to lose their minds. They were all wrong.

 

Diggs will talk too, which is going to make this even more interesting.  Grab the popcorn ... LOL

I would keep pick 44 from the Texans and then trade pic 28 60 and then whatever pics needed next year to get a top receiver this year and still get a sweet prospect at 44 as well.

I’m happy the Bills had the guts to do it. Perfect year to rebuild the WR room.

A lot of people on here and in the Bills content creation sphere just refused to accept what everybody else could see with their own eyes.

Which is what?  We can win w a couple rookies?  

[Goin Breakdown]

So a second round pick next year to Huston will be a LATE second round pick.

FWIW, our starting WRs are currently Shakir, Samuel, and Shorter.  

 

If we don't use our 1st-rounder on a WR now ...  SMFH  

 

 

 

Having a good feel for Beane, the plan is to move up and grab their guy.  Brian Thomas is my best guess.

I attended many games last year and it was clear watching Diggs that he really had lost it the second half of the season. He is also known for disappearing during key playoff games and choking (see drop last year against KC, some other boneheaded plays (fumble) and lack of separation). 

 

This move should free up a lot of cap space for us next year to reload. This draft is also receiver heavy so we will get someone. We may have a bit of a drop off this year but we will be much better off in the future.

Hamler is better than Shorter.  Shorter will have a sub Hodgins career.

[dgrochester55]

I want to reserve judgement until I see what the cap looks like and what Buffalo adds at WR before the season.

 

Buffalo was not getting past the divisional round with last years set up.  If Allen has five to ten good years left, I would be willing to take a step back for one year if it meant true Super Bowl contention after.
