The Diggs trade for a significantly inferior player netted the Vikings insanely more than the Hopkins trade, for a WR that IMO is Top 5 in the league presently. They literally got an overpaid RB that has underachieved since that contract and inherited it...and a second rounder. Diggs an inferior WR, with a HUGE head on a not as friendly contract in essence got the Vikings a 1st rounder, 4th rounder, 5th rounder and a 6th rounder and no bloated overpaid RB contract.Sorry IMO there really is not better reasoning for ******* on the trade via comparisons. Now could Johnson ball out and show worth of his contract, sure. I'd argue even then he wasn't worth it. Shoot I think in long run us trading Aaron Jones and a 2nd for Hopkins would be fleecing Houston as we avoid overpaying a RB in an era of the league where that just hasn't panned out well for teams more than not...and we get Hopkins on an incredibly friendly contract for what like 3 seasons.</blockquote>
