  • Smells like a fanpost, not actual news.

    Gute's recent comments sure made it sound like he wants to draft and develop a safety to play alongside McKinney, I think he'll take one in Day 2 and then a flier on another in Day 3. If all the good prospects get snapped up I think he'll revisit FA, but I don't think he wants to add another veteran and end up with a $25M safety group.

    It would make sense only if they don't come out of the draft with a S before R4.

    • Stefon Diggs must have really worn out his welcome in Buffalo.

      Breaking: The Buffalo Bills are trading WR Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans in exchange for a 2025 second-round pick (via the Vikings).

      The Texans also receive a 2025 fifth-round pick and sixth-round pick.

      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.

        Wow, yeah they really wanted to get rid of him. I've heard McDermott is...not a good coach. Blames everyone else etc.
        Diggs was a prima donna in MIN. He's kind of a high strung guy. $31M in dead money is a LOT. Teams are going to start getting smarter about some of these contracts to avoid those hits.
        BUF losing a number of players. They'll have to retool at WR without Davis and Diggs.

        • Maybe Diggs called out Allen for not living up to the hype?

          Guess I better not throw stones. Packers might be having some hard financial WR choices to make in a few years.

            Just give Wicks a 10 year extension right now. I'm drinking the kool aid on him.

              He's our star IMO

              • Why on earth would the texans make that trade? They're a young and impressionable team and Diggs is toxic.

                  THey are trying to win soon and win NOW while their rookie SuperStar QB is not getting paid. They didn't give up much for Diggs.

                    If the Packers draft Kool-Aid Mckinstry, that's gonna be a loaded phrase.

                      I don't really want him, and I can't help but saying McKthirsty every time I mention him.

                        Knowing almost nothing about the guy except for his crazy name and that someone said he might be lazy, I'd be curious as to why you don't really want him.

                          Its mainly the "lazy" thing. He isn't a self starter by most accounts which often means you get a guy who got by being the best athlete on the field and once they get in the NFL they don't do the necessary things to stay that way. I am only basing this on the reports and the 2 games I saw him play where he struck me as similar to Antonio Cromartie when it came to wanting to tackle a tough RB.

                            Yeah, I am tired of guys who turn down tackles. Yuk.

                            • Packers QB Alex McGough now listed on roster as WR. He has no known history as a WR.

                                This is a baffling move to me. He's not athletic enough to stick at WR, and he's like 28 or 29 years old.
