Lamar game winner went right in doggs face. Elite qbs pay him no mind. Burrow threw at him so much his wr coach said he was scared of Chase. That's yalls corner

 

[Runwildboys]

So he comes back and has an all pro season, then what??

Get a better trade.

The Diggs hate on this board is corny

I don't hate him, but I think he's been overrated. And his tackling really is pathetic.

The reality is that Diggs got his rep bc he did a calculation. He figured out that as long as he gets INTs, nobody notices or remembers how many plays he gave up selling out for the INT. For example, the year he had 11 INTs, he also lead the league in yards given up. He was one of PFFs lowest graded CBs that year but he made the pro bowl!

Diggs then parlayed the 11 INT year into a big contract and the rest is history. He's constantly injured , rehabs lazily, and just isn't worth the investment we made in him. Circling back to my original point, he is not a lock-down CB. QBs go to his side all the time.

Sell high, buy low. Soon as he's cleared, trade him.

Yup. That’s why we took the corner in the draft.

Diggs has a jacked knee.

Word is they did a bone graft and drilled holes.

He’s likely bone on bone.

An elite corner pre injury.

Protecting his knee.

Dude was elite.

So he protected his knee AFTER getting the contract? That makes absolutely zero sense. The excuses for him are funny. He doesn't tackle because he doesn't want to. He's the cb version of jaylon Smith.

Exactly what I was thinking when I responded.

 

[fivetwos]

I’m sure they see Revel as an eventual starter (as they should) so that pick was about either cutting Diggs or not retaining Bland. Either one. Makes full sense.

Finally ahead of something which is nice.

He was never "elite". He was "pretty good/very good", in coverage. His tackling was always suspect, but got worse after his first injury.

Is this damage control

This is exactly what Jerry said in the draft pc.

 

[CowboyFrog]

Its hard to say what Diggs is (other than his business desicions those happened) we have only really seen him in a DQ defense where DQ himself told him to sell out for the INT's. No one knows how he will play in this defense when healthy.. Diggs is a gifted athlete with great hands at CB, thats not over rated lets see what this new DC can do with him when healthy (like get him to hit Kittle)

 

[CT Dal Fan]

The dream scenario for the penny-pinching Cowboys is that Shavon Revel, Kaiir Elam, and Caelon Carson all excel and prove to be the future.

Then they can cut Diggs and not worry about paying Bland.
