We gave the Bills the extra 2nd round pick next year we got when we traded down out of the first round this year.AgLA06 said:That says Minnesota did. Didn't show us giving up anything (doesn't mean we didn't).Ags #1 said:

I just saw this.
The Texans received Stefon Diggs and a 5th / 6th rounder
Traded away a 2025 second-rounder.
Assuming we can handle him and he isn't toxic in the locker room. That's a no brainer!
We essentially are spending our 2024 first on Stephon Diggs and picking up a 2nd.
Here to eat my crow. I didn't expect a big move. This is huge and they still have room for more.
In Nick we trust.
In Nick we trust.
Basically we traded down from 23 to 42 and received Diggs and an extra 5th rounder next year and a 6th rounder this year if you look at the two trades combined.
Texans are going to have to do something with Diggs contract. Won't have enough money for his current contract and to sign all of the rookies. Wonder how long they extend him.
They really don't have "room for more" without redoing Diggs' contract.Cartographer said:

Diggs current cap number is 27m, and the Texans have 29m in cap space, need about 10 to sign all the rookies.

He's 30. Surely not more than 3 or 4 years

It's got to already been done. There's no sense in bringing him in and giving him the leverage to hold you hostage otherwise.
Absolute fire!
The new-look Houston Texans offense:
— Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) April 3, 2024
🏈QB: CJ Stroud
🏈RB: Joe Mixon
🏈WR: Stefon Diggs
🏈WR:Nico Collins
🏈WR: Tank Dell
🏈TE: Dalton Schultz https://t.co/WlL4mAaavz

If our Oline improves, it should be a super bowl caliber offense.BayAg_14 said:

Especially since Mixon can't pass block if his life depended on it.
A legit college 1 receiver in the slot.
I'm very aroused.

His current deal is for 3 more years. I'm sure it will be some creative contract, will be a top 5 paid WR now, when last year he looked like he was on the decline with a lot of key drops.Mr.Bond said:redag06 said:

For Houston this gives them another potential dynamic fit in their offense if they can manage the egos. Diggs will cost $19.005 million this year and has a non-guaranteed salary of $18.505 million in 2025. $3.5 million of that salary is injury protected. There are also non-guaranteed years in 2026 and 2027 worth $19.6 million and $18 million respectively.
This is sexy af omg
That's a pretty huge upgrade of talent for Stroud going into this year.
Also,
As it was mentioned earlier, only this year is guaranteed money, so we can renegotiate this contract easily without a huge negative impact in a few years.
Also,
The #Bills will carry about $31.1 million in dead money for Diggs. Pretty much a disaster extension for them. Wound up paying an extra $20.9M in 2022 and 2023 to come away with a net of less than a 2nd rounder next year.

This is Thanos rebalancing the universe to make up for the Hopkins trade for David Johnson
Will be interesting to see if Diggs was really falling off or if he was just being used differently.
Weeks 1-10 2023- 86ypg 7 td Team record 5-5
Weeks 11-18 --- 45ypg 1 td Team record 6-1
He had 80 targets in those last 10 games as well.

Hard to not be excited about this move, especially at the cost. PLEASE don't be the malcontent diva you've been in the past, Diggs. Stated it before… do not want Stroud feeling like he has to feed this dude the ball. There's only one ball and now there's a lot of weapons. Be here to win games.
He was probably frustrated with Allen being so off platform more and more in the passing game. Allen was starting to constantly ad-lib before a play started to break down even when WRs would be open. I'm sure going to play with a QB that has the ability to play very much on script and only ad-libs when needed is going to make him very happy.redag06 said:

Whoops, my reply was meant to be on the diva aspects of him, but yeah I think a lot of him getting frustrated revolved around how Allen plays and the way Brady started calling the offense around that.
ready for some PRIMETIME TEXANS!
No, this is Iron Man (Nick Caserio) stealing the Infinity Stones (GM role) to reverse the trade from Thanos (BoB) who had more power than a HC should have.The Porkchop Express said:

What I was going to reply on this one is that the Bills switched from Ken Dorsey to Joe Brady around week 10 or 11. Brady then designed the offense around Allen just creating plays instead of running more of actual go through your progressions style offense. Diggs seems to be really good at running routes and not running constant scramble drills so he suffered compared to other targets.redag06 said:

People are talking about Diggs attitude. Lance Zierlein said CJ Stroud doesn't put up with anything, and the team knows it. That's pretty awesome that a rookie has garnered that much respect (even playing at the level he did).
So do we still have a second round pick (#59) in this draft?
Trying to keep up

We still have both our 2nd rounds picks this year, we traded a 2 next year.MAROON said:
