The transaction that transferred Stefon Diggs to the Buffalo Bills from the Minnesota Vikings in the spring of 2020 feels even more essential with the 2021 offseason afoot. Minnesota avoided embarrassment in the aftermath of the deal as rookie Justin Jefferson acted as a more-that-suitable replacement for the departed Diggs. The trade could have been humiliating from an immediacy perspective if Jefferson was a run-of-the-mill rookie player. Why? Because Diggs barnstormed Buffalo. His 2020 performance was phenomenal. Buffalo is 13-3 and will host a playoff game this weekend. Individually, Diggs led the NFL in receiving yards and receptions – two feats incapable of occurrence in Minnesota with Adam Thielen siphoning targets.
Thank God for the Diggs Trade, for this reason alone
