Trading a 2nd for a one year rental? And 22M guaranteed for one year?

 

I seen somewhere that he's still on a deal for like 18, 19, 16 in 25, 26, 27.....just no more guarantees. A little confused, which is it a FA in 25 or 18 for 2025 with no guarantees?

What does ability to be a free agent mean, diggs can be like "peace out fools, Im a free agent" after the year? I think Texans could do that if the 31 year old diva shows age. idk.

From nfl.com:

As part of their deal to acquire Diggs, the Texans are eliminating the final three years of Diggs' contract, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported on Thursday. The move adds four void years to Diggs' deal, while moving money originally guaranteed for 2025 into 2024, effectively giving Diggs a one-year, $22.52 million contract, per Rapoport.

Diggs will become an unrestricted free agent in 2025, meaning his first season with the Texans could also be his last.

If Diggs performs well then they bring him back on a new deal, if he carries over his problems from buffalo then they cut ties after this year with nothing attached. I get it.

Except he’ll be an unrestricted free agent so there’s no guarantee they get to bring him back if they want to. Pretty strange deal.

Well thats why it goes back to what i said if he performs well, Houston feels like they are building a good culture over there players want to be apart of and problem think they can keep him longterm if everything goes right next year. Diggs has already spoken highly about stroud if im not mistaken so the interest was already there.

They could tag him. And honestly regardless of how he plays this year I’m not sure he’ll get more than he had on that contract anyways. Weird that he accepted that.

This is a move you make if you believe you've got a really small window and you're not looking long term.

Just a weird move. Maybe they just got lucky last year.

    • He just had his 5th year option picked up, I think we are still digging the hole. As far as DJ Moore, fools. How many picks did we waste chasing a replacement? I count a second and two firsts being what that cost. And going without for two years.   I guess they traded him because you don’t need to spend as much on receivers with Bryce… or some such bullshit as they thought at the time.   
    • I want to sign him so the excuse can be removed if (when) our offense looks mediocre again.  Supposedly TE is the lone weak spot in our offense.  
    • Broadcast I agree with, he'd be a great color commentator, like the early days of Romo where he was constantly predicting what was about to happen, but I disagree with the pregame part for the same reason as my last post in here.  Pregame is about flash and hyping people up for the games, not granular level specific breakdown of film, which is what Luke does best.   I actually don't think he'd be very good in the pregame role because of that, it's not what he does best and he doesn't have that Gronk/Burleson/etc type of excitement in his presentation style that is needed for those pregame shows.   I almost think he'd actually be best suited to join the Manningcast for some games.  Having him and Peyton breakdown what they're seeing from each side of the ball on the same plays would actually be quite interesting to watch (although admittedly, he might be kinda boring when interviewing the guests there lol)
