Josh Allen
Will Josh Allen Remain be a Top Quarterback After Diggs Trade?
1 year ago

The Buffalo Bills traded All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs to the Houston Texans for a 2025 second-round draft pick.

The aftershock of Stefon Diggs being traded to the Texans will have a ripple effect on both teams, but let’s focus on his former quarterback Josh Allen. With Diggs’s departure, there are now 160 targets up for grabs. Who will Allen turn to after losing his WR1?

 

Initially, the thought is the Bills will aim to add a weapon or two in the NFL Draft later this month to help their All-World quarterback. Allen will lose a little shine as being the first quarterback off the board in fantasy drafts. Regardless he will still be in the running to be one of the top scorers at his position.

 

The main benefactor after the trade has to be Dalton Kincaid. The rookie tight end rallied later in the season after a slow start and battling an injury to finish with 73 receptions for 673 yards and two touchdowns. One wide receiver everyone should try and add in dynasty leagues is the newly acquired Curtis Samuel who can line up all over the offense. Khalil Shakir will be the WR1 heading into training camp for the time being. As for Allen, he will be in for another stellar season in 2024. Should the Bills fail to draft solid receiving options in the draft don’t worry, because that means Allen will be making more plays on the ground than ever before.
