Turns out the Minnesota Vikings kicked the tires on a Diggs/Hopkins trade

One of my many Stefon Diggs related takes since the mercurial receiver was traded was openly questioning why the Minnesota Vikings didn’t trade Diggs for then Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins. Considering that the Texans were widely considered to have been fleeced via the Cardinals (who sent flash in the pan running back David Johnson, as well as a second-round pick, etc.), one would’ve thought that an offer of someone of Diggs’ caliber would be too good to pass up.

I mostly wrote that idea off because clearly Bill O’Brien was looking for help in the run game, and obviously Diggs isn’t a running back.
