If I'm the Pats, I make a call to Arizona about MHJ, or even the Commanders about Diggs if they further fall out of it. MHJ could probably be had for a Day 3 pick (Round 4 or 5), he needs a change of scenery too. This is especially assuming Hollins will also miss significant time. I'd welcome a Diggs reunion at the right price, again assuming WAS falls out of it but I think they will + Jayden Daniels is still hurt
Wash fan here.  They're already toast this year.  you can have Diggs for a second rounder and maybe a 6th.  you need him and we're going nowhere with him but he's still an impact player with the right QB

I'd do it for a 3rd. 2nd is too steep especially since he's technically a rental

Yeah, Diggs isn't worth a 2nd rounder at this point. He's mid round pick like a 4th/5th round pick, IMO.

Zero chance that AZ gives MHJ away for a 4th or 5th round pick. They selected him 4th overall a few years ago and he had a good rookie season. Is he having a bad year, yes. But look who is throwing him the ball.

He wasnt very good last year either. Also Jacoby Brisset supported two thousand yard receivers last year so i'm not sure Id blame the QB

A 3rd is too steep too.

Hes 32 on a 1 year deal. If he was worth a 3rd round pick he would have signed for a whole lot more than 8 million.

Through 4 games, Brissett has thrown for 800 yards, has 6TD and 4INT. He is not good. MHJ is a deep ball receiver. Jacoby does not throw long passes. He dinks and dunks. So yes, I blame the QB.

hey, Wash fans need all we can get so I'd really like a 2nd for him.  we won't get it.  doesn't mean I don't want it.

Last year Brisset threw for 280 yards a game (4700 yard pace) and Harrison still stunk.

Michael Wilson is doing just fine with Jacoby.

To be fair, the offense probably ISNT doing him any favors. Its just hes not doing himself any either.

MHJ had 900 yards and 8TD?s as a rookie with Murray. Brissett does not throw long passes. This is why MHJ is not being targeted often. Jacoby is a very conservative QB.

Either way, the Pats need to really consider a move at WR. Or maybe even RB if Stevenson is hurt, but if Henderson can't step it up then I worry about the lack of depth there too.

Diggs should be a priority. Frankly they should have never let him go, not for just 8M if that was the price. A Brown-Diggs-Doubs group would be elite and you'd still in theory have Hollins-Douglas-Chism behind them. Feels to me like they hitched their wagon on Kyle Williams and I'll be honest, he screams bust. Maye doesn't even seem to throw to him which I find telling, he's more comfortable even with Chism as last week showed when Hollins got hurt and he got out there.

Thing with Diggs is, he was looking for $20M when free agency started. So the Pats went with Doubs. If the price was $8M from the beginning he would likely be in NE.

Could they have paid Diggs and keep Boutte instead of signing Doubs?

Boutte requested a trade. I know its not required to honor that request, but I think if we had Brown and Diggs he'd have requested a trade just like he did with Brown and Doubs.

I personally would NOT have acquiesced to that request either way.

Call me crazy but I still have faith in Doubs.  I also hope last Sunday was a sign of getting Hunter more involved.

With the Pats challenges in developing receivers over the years, it stings to lose Jakobi Meyers and Kayshon Boutte. Two productive receivers that would be great on this team.
