00:00Do you think Steph Diggs will be back with the team next year?
00:05I think they're going to explore options to figure out if they can upgrade that position.
00:09It's a fairly significant number for him, both in terms of bonuses and cap hit.
00:17So, as Vrabel said in that postseason, so I guess what I'm saying,
00:21Keith is I'm going to punt on whether or not I think he's going to be back.
00:25I think they'll try to improve it.
00:26If they can improve it, they'll improve it.
00:27But, you know, better, cheaper, younger is what Vrabel stated.
00:32And I think that your ex-receiver is a place that you would try to do that.
00:36Would he want to come back on a smaller number, a different kind of deal?
00:41Are they interested in having him?
00:42I mean, his leadership on field was excellent, beyond excellent,
00:45and certainly beyond expectations for everyone.
00:48Myself certainly included in that.
00:51But I think that they're going to look at that as they will everything else.
00:54It's hard for me to say who's going to be back and who isn't,
00:58because you have to upgrade the position instead of just changing it out for the hell of it.
01:02Yeah, no, I agree.
01:03And, like, I think Steph Diggs was good.
01:05I thought he was healthy all year, which was a pleasant surprise.
01:091,000 yards, first 1,000-yard receiver since Edelman in 2019.
01:13So I thought he was good.
01:14I want him back.
01:15I wouldn't be surprised if they sort of, like, changed the contract to sort of help him
01:19and help themselves a little bit.
01:20Because the true upgrades of Steph Diggs would be, what, like, A.J. Brown, maybe Mike Evans,
01:28maybe Alec Pierce, but that would be a ton of money because he's a free agent.
01:31George Pickens would have to be, like, a big trade because they're going to franchise him there in Dallas.
01:35Like, and then I don't know if you can just rely on your first-round pick as even being an
01:39upgrade.
01:40So, like, that's why I kind of point to him being back because I don't know how readily available anybody
01:45that's definitely better than him will be out there.
01:49Exactly the same thing I'm thinking.
01:51Yeah, upgrade it if you can.
01:52If you can't, at least you have a guy there.
01:54Now, they have to decide on who is spackle on the wall and who is part of the wall board.
02:02And I would probably guess that Diggs is spackle.
02:05It's good spackle, but is it spackle long term?
02:08You don't want to have spackle long term.
02:09Nobody wants that.
