Well, they got a weapon for Maye...Maybe grab Hunter this draft too.

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

I’m not sure he’s a great fit for a young QB. How much is he going to mouth off to a second year guy after mouthing off the future MVP? I don’t think Elliot Wolf is actually Ron’s son. They’ve got a massive hole at LT. We shall see.

This was my thought also. You keep Diggs away from a promising young quarterback at all costs. The juice ain't worth the squeeze anymore

Coming off an ACL the Patriots definitely paid Diggs the, "we know we stink" tax.

Elliot Wolf should be sued for malpractice.

I think Diggs will help Maye more than hurt him. He might be a diva; he's also one of the best route runners in the NFL. But my God, $23M a year for a 31 year old receiver coming off an ACL? Ouch.

They'll address the OL in the draft, whether that be rd1 or whatever...This was a chance to get a weapon w/out giving up picks.

I havent seen the guaranteed $$ yet, but this may not be as rich as the first read indicates?

I get the trepidation of putting him out there with a very green, young QB.

Maybe he promised to be good? :)

And he's recovering from a big time injury. Diggsy will be 32 years old this year. I know the Patriots have the most amount of cap space by far and that's what this deal reeks of more than anything, but he's more diva than player heading into the twilight of his career. I wouldn't want him around Maye.

Only $26 mil guaranteed so the Pats can get out after '26 without much damage.

His 4th team in 5? Years.....

My bet is he goes mental by week 8 when the Patriots are 2-5.
