Diggs Traded

[RandyMoss84]

Randy moss and diggs are nowhere near comparable and you’re going off of assumption that we draft a bust

The draft is a crapshoot so yeah, Vikings could draft a bust and I did not say they will draft a bust

Or they could draft a stud. No point of saying they are going to do one or the other until we actually know

We will have to hope for the best but I wonder if Vikings will trade their pick for a proven wide receiver but that seems unlikely though

Highly doubtful. I think that’s a waste. This WR class is arguably the best class to ever come out

True, as a Sooners fan, I want Lamb really bad but that is wishful thinking

If Diggs didn't like Cousins he'll love Allen.

Allen is mediocre, Diggs’ stats will go down this year

I don’t think Buffalo got fleeced, Diggs is a known commodity and John Brown, Cole Beasley and Diggs is a heck of a trio. Seems like a pretty fair trade to me if Diggs was really adamant about leaving.

Buffalo gave up 4 picks for Diggs which they could have gave up 2 picks for Hopkins for cheaper, Bills got fleeced and Bill fans are saying the same and said Bills should have gotten Hopkins for cheap instead of giving up a boatload for Diggs and Hopkins is a much better player than Diggs

[VikingsVictorious]

Glad Vikings got a 1st for a guy that was more or less forcing a trade.

Also glad he's going to Buffalo. We'll see how well that works out for him. That's one of the last places I'd want to go

Yeah his antics were very deserving of going to a $hithole and that's just where he went.

The Texans made a stupid trade but they are two different transactions. No one knows if the Bills had the same offer on the table. The Texans obviously think very highly of Johnson who was also part of the deal.

Except Johnson sucks, Texans made a very stupid trade

Lol because he cleared cap by extending cousins and gaining Harris?? Diggs had the best years of his CAREER with cousins. Good luck replicating that in buffalo. And if cousins was so bad wouldn’t Thielen want to be traded? Greenway even said it, diggs wants it to be all about him and he wants to be “the guy”. He wasn’t getting that in Minnesota because of Thielen.

The cap could have cleared up any number of ways, there was no benefit from doing it with a Cousins extension. In fact the extension hurts our ability to sign players this season.

This offense is going to positively suck this year. It isn't going to get better trading away one of the best players on offense, it is going to get worse. That 22nd pick looks great until it becomes a rookie who needs time to develop if he even develops at all. The team is going to lose double digits, Rick is going to canned and so is Zimmer.

And people are happy about this trade. Wow.

The Vikings have 2 firsts 1 second and 2 thirds in this years draft. That's about the same draft capital that the Cowboys used to create their dynasty. Not saying I'm just saying.

It’s day 1 of free agency. And we have a guy named Adam Thielen who has outplayed diggs. And this class is loaded at the position. What do you think we’re going to do? Go into the season with Thielen and Bisi? You’re acting like we have michael Jenkins and Jerome Simpson at WR with ponder throwing them the ball. Kirk cousins moved the ball with josh doctson and Jamison crowder at WR.

What’s funny too is cousins beat the saints on the road in the playoffs where diggs had 2 catches for 19 yards.

And one more thing, since 2016, we’re 6-1 when diggs doesn’t play. Go get players that wanna be here. No selfish divas that are all about themselves

Quoted for prosperity.

FYI, that 2017 season Cousins threw to Doctson and Crowder, it was by far his worst of his career, and the offense went from 6th in scoring to 18th. Is that something we should be excited about?

Did you mean posterity?

That's true, but Diggs was a 5th round pick that we got several good and cheap years out of and he has now returned a first, fourth, fifth and sixth round pick.
