That's a great trade for Houston. Basically zero downside with all the extra picks they've had over the past few years, anyway. I get it for Buffalo, too, in what looks like it's gonna be a turnover year. Still seems weird they couldn't get a pick in this draft. I'll never understand how draft picks are valued to GM's. Diggs is expensive and starting to decline.

Seems easy enough: Find a pro bowl QB who throws for a million yards but is secretly a sexual assaulter When those assault allegations come out, fleece another team into giving you a ton of picks for him Couple those picks with the ones your team gets for not having a good record Hit on most if not all of those picks including a franchise QB ready to win in year 1 Find a really good HC Play in a shit division Doesn’t seem very hard Almost hire a completely unqualified white guy as head coach along the way until you're shamed out of it.

So the texans have a top 5 qb, a top 5 rb, a top 10 wr, a top 5 edge rusher/best edge rush bookends by drafting 2 of them and trading functionally nothing? Is that correct?

From someone who loves Joe Mixon: he's not top 5. He might not even be top 10. He will be a step up from what you have, but you're gonna be so frustrated with his inability to break tackles, and how he gets stuffed on almost every zone run outside.

Diggs is expensive and starting to decline. His contract is only guaranteed for next season and he had 107 catches and nearly 1200 yards last year. Houston still has a 2025 2nd from the Vikings trade. There's no way to spin this as not being a great move for them.

I didn't enjoy the hitting women who called him the n word, or the pulling gun on a person in traffic the day of a playoff game. But he was a good locker room guy and leader in the football department.

pulling a gun on a person in traffic on any day, but especially on the day of a playoff game, is certified badass.

I'm being cheeky but he's definitely been a top 10 rb in his time behind a garbage bengals oline. He should be an absolutely serviceable workhorse if he stays healthy.

He got let off of the menacing charges cause apparently the person instigated it and couldn't prove it. But about two weeks later on a next door property a high school kid was shot by one his family members. Just the legal troubles in general were a headache.

Not sure why Bills fans are freaking out over the cap hit from Diggs contract. Beane knows what he needs to do and it’s simple

We not gonna talk about Houston being like ‘LOL NM on the final three years of that 4-year deal we’ll just evaporate those’ because I’ve never once heard of that happening.
A restructure or extension after a trade? Common enough. Lopping off 75% of the contract after giving up a second-rounder for the guy? It’s not like they need to go all-in when your QB is on the second year of his rookie deal.
If Diggs balls out and they wanna re-sign it’s gonna cost them significantly more than the $21M/per they had him on so what’s the idea here?

There's an optout after this year and I imagine the wording doesn't require it to be post season, so it'd just be a matter of telling him that the optout is being executed the moment the trade finalizes.

if he balls out but one side or the other is meh, 3rd round comp
if he balls out and there is mutual interest do like a one year 27-30mil deal, HOU safeguards themselves age wise and he'll get another shot after that

they gotta extend our boy Nico soon too. So it gives em some breathing room and motivates Diggs to ball.
