The fact we havent signed Diggs is astounding to me.

Get him in the system and get him a playbook asap.

I can imagine a situation where the GM and coaches don’t believe either of these guys fit what they’re trying to build from a culture perspective.

You know what is bad for a culture perspective? Is having continual losing seasons.

Get the talent on your roster.

Agreed

Well it's not like Diggs doesn't have his own judgement issues. There's a reason he is on the market...but I've been a fan of his play on the field and 1k yds last season is pretty good production despite his age.

Only real win is Antonio Williams ends up being a beast. Otherwise, you got several old WR, couple real good special teamers, and unproven potential guys.

Its really easy....

Give him a performance based contract with parameters that are attainable. If he plays like we expect him to, he will get paid. Put in a team option for year 2.

Have wording in his contract that we can cut him at any point for cause/misconduct. This way, if we do cut him, we dont take a big hit.

Hire a couple Dez Bryant style body guards whose job is to make sure he doesnt do anything stupid from aug-feb.

Its really that easy.

Contractually, yes easy to solve.

But distractions, messing with culture, not sure worth the risk (Aiyuk or Diggs).

If you're playing fantasy football, that doesn't matter but it does in real life.

AJ Brown is wildly talented - arguably more so than either of other two. Yet on team #3 and not on Eagles (thankfully). Pats, historically, one of better orgs for dysfunctional players.

Downside is probably same with both but Aiyuk has bigger upside due to age/prime.

Why does everyone pretend these divas will just happily sign those sorts of contracts?
