Stefon Diggs expressed frustration with Bills quarterback Josh Allen in their season-ending playoff loss.

A big NO THANKS!

Our new QB has to be able to develop as a leader and does not need a diva WR telling him what to do.  The coaches also do not need a diva WR telling them what to do.

Reich has said before that chemistry is important.  Diggs does not Fitt in the house that Frank built.

But you must admit he is a way better player and actually produces.. "Choosen" (what an idiot) offered nothing of value on the field off the field and damn sure not in the locker room I have him as the worst WR in panther history and yes that's over you know who

still doesnt mean its worth the headache.

I think he is likely still a better WR than DeAndre Hopkins. 

But if we were going to go after one of them I'd prefer Hopkins. 

1) Cheaper

2) Don't need to trade additional assets for him

3) Divaaaa

Either one would be the best WR on this team since 89 but even then the team felt it was best for Cams development if 89 wasn't around. 

Ultimately I expect we pass on both for that reason but man... Diggs is starting to show some of those same tendiencies and toxic behaviors that AB did before his divorce from the Steelers and he completely lost his mind.

Im tired of getting poo'd for suggesting every #1 WR that becomes available so im just going to fit in with everyone else.

 

Hard pass. He will limit the growth of our young potential star WR's in TMJ and Mingo.

 

 

Chances are very high BY doesnt have us as a SB contender year 1. Winning the NFCS and getting some distance in the playoffs is great but we arent better than SF or Philly and definitely dont measure up to the AFC.

That taken into consideration, DHop and Diggs are different situations. DHop will likely be a 1 year rental and his presence would hurt the development of TMJ and Mingo only if he's here a year and gone. That doesn't help the team long term. 

Diggs is under contract and we have to trade assets for him, and that price won't be cheap in assets and salary cap. We still need to sign Burns, Chinn, Brown. He also wants more input in the offense. Rookie QB doesn't need that. It's part of the issue we had between Cam and Smitty. 

I'd prefer DHop with a more reasonable multi year contract and in that case, I don't care as much about development of TMJ and Mingo, but they do both need to get PT.

Love the player and I'm a fan of his, but he's a terrible fit for Bryce's rookie season.

I'm very much against Hopkins because of how much it would hinder the development of TMJ and Mingo, but I'd take Hopkins 100 times out of 100 over Diggs because of how much I think he would hinder the development of Bryce.

He needs to be on a team with an already established vet QB as well as being the undisputed focal point of the offense, neither of which would be the case with our team this year.

If we were going into Bryce's 3rd season and he was already the established leader and definitive voice in the locker room it would be a different scenario.  But this season is about laying that foundation the next decade of Panther football is to be built upon, and bringing in someone who throws a fit when their legitimate MVP candidate QB isn't getting him the ball often enough doesn't jive with that.

Especially when that player who wasn't getting the ball enough for his liking had 108 catches, 1,429 yards, and 11 TDs.

I mean, c'mon, how much more do you want the ball thrown to you?

This is all you had to post.

 

Instead you went on a "diva like" rant about how you rather have Hopkins, but I could have sworn you said you didn't want him either. But now since it's a bigger diva in Diggs you rather have the lesser diva Hopkins even if Diggs is more productive.smh

 

tukadiva21 cmon my guy.

I don't want Hopkins this year, but between the two he's the one I'd take because I think him being on the team only hurts the development of our young WRs, where Diggs would hurt the development of our young QB (along with the WRs), which would make it a non-starter for me.

I've also never once said Hopkins is a diva, because I don't think he is one.  So it's not about taking the lesser diva between them.

It's also not even about him being a diva, that's manageable, it's the way he acts like a diva, losing his mind on the sideline like he frequently did last year.  Combine that with him this offseason saying he should have a say in play calling and such, he's just a disaster waiting to happen if paired with a rookie QB.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By strato · Posted

      If Canales comes back and Bryce doesn’t I would probably prefer to bring in 3 guys he likes from around the league or maybe outside a top ten pick and work through them, give that a shot. Because if we win a few more games we won’t be in the running for the top rated QB prospects anyway.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      There’s too many to reply to so I’ll just say a couple more things then I’m out: 1. It hasn’t been both ways and that’s the point. People saying stuff like “too bad Bryce Young didn’t make that tackle” is a direct result of the ridiculousness of blaming Bryce Young for literally everything. I remember one game day thread a poster unironically blamed Bryce Young for JT Sanders flipping onto his own neck and injuring himself. That post was pied. I literally just read a post blaming Bryce Young for XL dropping a ball on a would-be game winning drive last year. This past week, when Tmac bounced a ball off his hands for an interception, Bryce Young was immediately blamed in the game day thread. Alternatively, people who try to give credit to Bryce Young are immediately told that to credit Bryce Young is taking away credit from Rico Dowdle, OL, whoever, and that they shouldn’t be talking positively about Bryce Young because he doesn’t deserve any credit. 2. Yes, there have always been bad posters, the difference is that back then they were largely derided. Bryce Young’s rookie season, when many of us were simply pointing at the train wreck of the whole team and saying it was maybe a little tough to evaluate Bryce Young when he had no time to throw and slow receivers, and just saying basic stuff like “Bryce Young can physically throw the ball further than 20 yards.” There was an attempt made to limit all those opinions to a single thread, by a mod. This is like saying lunatics running the asylum is normal because there have always been lunatics in the asylum. The difference is before they were patients, now they’re in charge. 3. I know for a fact I am labeled as one of the “Bryce Stans” by many of the usual suspects, but the fact of the matter is they have no idea what my position is on Bryce Young because any attempts at nuanced discussion in the past have been so completely pointless due to never being able to get past the hyperbole. How can we have a serious conversation if you insist he is physically incapable of throwing a football 20 yards? Or if you insist that he somehow duped the Panthers into drafting him just by drinking water? Or if you insist that he should be able to succeed behind one of the worst offensive lines I’ve ever seen (rookie year, not now). And I’m not the only one, there are many who have left the huddle because of it and started a discord server, I’m just too lazy for another app.
