I hope CJ gets Brown and Woods back for the playoff. They aren't great, but they're better than guys not named Collins who played tonight.

Bills trade Stefon Diggs to Texans: Grading blockbuster deal for disgruntled Pro Bowl receiver​

Diggs is joining forces with C.J. Stroud​

The 30-year-old arrived in Buffalo in 2020 after the Bills pulled off a trade with Minnesota. Diggs was drafted by the Vikings in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft out of Maryland and had established himself as one of the top young receivers upon landing in the pros. That said, Diggs joining the Bills sent his production to a higher level when paired with Allen, leading the league in receptions and receiving yards in his first season in Buffalo.

While that may have deteriorated as of late, Diggs is one of the top receivers in the NFL when firing on all cylinders and now pairs himself with arguably the brightest young quarterback in the league in C.J. Stroud, who is coming off an Offensive Rookie of the Year season in 2024.

Diggs joins a Houston team that is on the rise after drafting Stroud No. 2 overall and year ago and immediately winning the AFC South under first-year head coach DeMeco Ryans. The arrival of Diggs also creates one of the best receiver rooms that the NFL has to offer. On top of him, the club sports talented pass catchers like Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Noah Brown, and Robert Woods. That's also not accounting for tight end Dalton Schultz and running back Joe Mixon, who was acquired in a trade with the Bengals earlier this offseason.

While Houston's offense jumps to a new stratosphere with Diggs coming aboard, it will be interesting to see how Buffalo reshapes its wide receiver room. Along with this departure of Diggs, the Bills also saw Gabe Davis leave for the Jacksonville Jaguars in free agency. At the moment, their wide receiver depth chart is headlined by Curtis Samuel, Khalil Shakir, Justin Shorter, and Mack Hollins.

With Diggs now off to Houston, let's grade the trade:

Texans: A​

Bills: C-​
