I thought he and Allen were BFF's?chucker wrote Wed Apr 03, 2024 8:27 am:There's more to the Diggs trade than cap - there's serious discontent on his part, although I don't know the details.

What's the remainder of his contact worth?Jeevo wrote Wed Apr 03, 2024 9:25 am:I don't disagree with the wr move, I just wouldn't have made it with Diggs. Not a fan of his.

Thanks for the information. If he doesn't get whiny the people he is represented by most certainly will.chucker wrote Wed Apr 03, 2024 2:45 pm:Diggs is under contract and the contract is cheap for the production he's had. My guess is that he'll play under the current deal for 2024 and then get whiny in 2025 if he has a good season.

Yep that just about right! I'm going to give him a year and part of the 2nd. By then he will be tired of his new toy and start to get pouty...DanKD wrote Wed Apr 03, 2024 5:53 pm:Antonio Brown level of crazy not withstanding, guys like this are usually on good behavior for a year.

That doesn’t seem very wise from a team perspective, am I missing something?

I think they know he'd be asking for a new contract next year anyway and want the most motivated guy possible for 2024. It does mean that they won't be able to get a comp pick for him if he leaves as a FA - if you amend a contract to remove years then it no longer qualifies for comp picks. I'd assume that the contract amendment was agreed to in principle prior to the trade.BoJacksonRules wrote Thu Apr 04, 2024 1:05 pm:That doesn’t seem very wise from a team perspective, am I missing something?

...there is clearly a 'shelf life' with diggs. .....after a while, he gets pouty and whiny, and seems to default to deflection when a play doesn't click, and i think that gets old for the other offensive players, and especially, with the quarterback, who already feels pressured to get him the ball to keep him from getting moody again.raider_kin wrote Wed Apr 03, 2024 6:36 pm:I thought he and Allen were BFF's?

...agreed on Allen knowing.RI RAIDER wrote Thu Apr 04, 2024 3:00 pm:Diggs was ALWAYS complaining. I do not believe the stories that Allen did not know about the trade. I am sure Allen not only knew, but wanted him gone. That being said, losing Diggs and Davis is a big blow.

Kincaid, that's it....RI RAIDER wrote Thu Apr 04, 2024 3:13 pm:WNYRAIDER, I agree with your post and I think Kincaid is going to be a star.

Chancy. If he has a season ending injury you may have not only lost him in FA but you paid him all the money and gave another team a 2nd rounder...
