The Stefon Diggs era in Buffalo has come to an end. The Bills are finalizing a blockbuster trade to send the four-time Pro Bowl receiver to the Houston Texans CBS Sports lead NFL insider Jonathan Jones has confirmed. In exchange for Diggs, Buffalo will receive a 2025 second-round pick (via Minnesota) while they will also send a 2024 sixth-rounder and a 2025 fifth-round pick to Houston along with Diggs.

I certainly would’ve given that up for Diggs. Would’ve been a talented addition to the current Steelers line up.
Bills got fleeced. Allen a stud but losing top receivers will hurt.Quote:

Chiefs navigated it fairly well. Can the Bills do the same?
Man imagine having him and Pickens. Why did we not try to trade for him?
Of course his cap hit is around $19 million through 2027 so that might have played into it.
The Texans are quietly building a very good team and all on their QB's rookie contract. First adding Joe Mixon, now Diggs.
If that’s his cap hit, I probably wouldn’t do it…unless he’d restructure to lower…much lower. But he’s a nuisance…combined with that cap hit. I probably wouldn’t do it on second thought.
I don’t think that’s a cap space move. I think this is a move to get rid of a headache from what it sounds like. It sounds like they lose cap space trading Diggs.Quote:

He’s one of those great on field guys, terrible teammate type guys I guess…Quote:

I live in Upstate/Central, NY and I'm surrounded by Buffalo fans. Most fans around here agree with your statement that he was horrible last year, a whiner in the locker room, and was dropping the passes way down field that the team needed him to catch.Quote:

that is a HORRIBLE deal for the Texans and I do mean HORRIBLE ...
this is the same team that basically gave away its 1st round pick this year too ...
the front office is getting shit on with every deal they make that guy is the anti con man or "the Conned man"
Turned out to be horrible after they made their post trade moves. They must have been trying to appease him. He's just not that level of talent anymore to make those kinds of concessions. Might as well bring AB back.
