The Buffalo Bills and Arizona Cardinals could be in business in the very near future. Buffalo currently sits at 9-6 and is in very good position to make the post-season. Meanwhile the Arizona Cardinals are 3-12 and still in contention for the number one overall draft pick next year (even though the Panthers might have that locked up).
One report has surfaced that has these two franchises making a surprising trade that would certainly alter both franchises.
The Buffalo Bills And Arizona Cardinals Could Made Massive Trade Involving A Super Star
Alex Ballentine of Bleacher Report highlighted how this massive move could go down:
Bills Receive: 2024 first-round pick (via Houston), 2025 third-round pick
Cardinals Receive: WR Stefon Diggs
Stefon Diggs made the ESPN list and has been the focus of trade speculation going back to last offseason. The receiver isn’t shy about letting people know when he’s frustrated and there’s a reason he’s had to address his relationship with the team on multiple occasions.
As Dan Graziano noted, how the Bills season ends could have a lot to do with whether the trade speculation picks up again.
Diggs’ production recently could lead to more frustration even though it has come in Bills victories. He’s been held under 50 yards in four of the last five games after hitting that benchmark in each of the team’s first nine contests.
If things have truly gone south, then the Cardinals would be an interesting team to come calling. They have two first-round picks, which would allow them to use theirs and deal the one they got from Houston last year.
However, the Texans pick is trending toward the middle of the draft order, which would still allow the Bills to continue getting younger as they build around Allen in his second contract.
Jonathan Gannon and the Cards should be looking to show signs of drastic improvement in 2024. Kyler Murray’s absence was a built-in reason to struggle this year. Now Gannon has to prove he can thrive.
The Cardinals have $56.1 million in 2024 cap space, per Spotrac. And potentially outfitting Murray with Stefon Diggs and Marvin Harrison Jr. immediately makes them one of the league’s most intriguing offenses.
