Bummer.  And the worst part is that Houston is out of options on the trade market with Adams, Cooper and Hopkins already traded.  May be they will go after a Thielen in Carolina or Williams with the Jets.


Diontae Johnson is probably the biggest name left but he won’t be cheap

As much as people may hate Diggs now, I feel bad for the guy who 1) Has always busted his butt to be healthy going into each season 2) Gave 3.5 great years to this organization and 3) Has been generally professional after being dealt.  He isn't an Antonio Brown or Aaron Rodgers thats for sure.

 

This is likely a career ender.  He doesn't have term after this year, the ACL makes him miss most of next year as well.  He will softly fade into the sunset like OBJ post Rams.

Shame for him.

But also ***** that guy. He downed tools last year in a very obvious way.

 

The fanboys can keep going on about the 3 great years - not sure why, as no-one on this side of it is arguing otherwise anyway, he was sensational for us for 3 years - but that doesn't change the fact that 50%+ of the ***** going on last year could be attributed to him. He personally reduced our odds of winning with his own decision to check out, and for good measure all the public Diggs/Allen stuff seemed to weigh #17 down, or at least drain some energy/enthusiasm - you can see with your own eyes that old Josh is back, enjoying himself without this guy around.

 

In a sense disappointing we don't get the chance to beat his ass in the play-offs.

He's got enough money to spend the rest of his life traveling and eating surf and turf so I'm not going to feel bad for him.

It's hard to manufacture a lot of empathy for a-hole drama queens.

Pretty much how i feel.  These injuries happen just about every other game in the NFL seems like.  He’ll be fine.  I couldn’t care less he’s out for the season.

Non contact injuries happen with enough frequency that it strikes me as odd...

 

Finely tuned pro athletes tear ACL's just moving around, or dropping back to pass for QBs? 

 

IMO these are almost always minor, unnoticed injuries that get a little worse, a little worse, then BAM! But I have no idea, just guessing.
