Do we attempt to extend Diontae this season?

He's gone. There's absolutely zero chance he re-signs here. He didn't want to come here in the first place.

If we land TMac @tukafan21will be so happy! 

If the plan is to trade Johnson then Tmac defitnely becomes a real possibility.

 

You can't go into next season with XL/Mingo as your main WR's.

We don't know that for a fact at all and how he personally will feel with a full season with the team and being the number 1 option around here.

I think it will depend how well Legette develops this season.

We shouldn't consider a trade unless we get a REALLY good offer; like a 1st rounder.

Even then I wouldn't consider that unless Diontae has communicated to us that he doesn't plan to re-sign here. Based on his play so far he's more valuable than a 1st rounder we'd likely use to take a flyer on another receiver to replace him.

People are assuming he doesn't want to be here, but we don't know that at all. The only thing we do know is he wants to be paid; I imagine if we offer him a contract he's happy with any reservations he may (or may not) have will pretty quickly disappear.

I would love to keep him and expect him to keep performing. His Instagram post yesterday literally has a picture of I Need Money from the movie How High. He'll be wanting a pay day I imagine over a contender. 

I don't have IG so didn't see his post but this is the sense I get from him. He doesn't care about playing for a contender as much as getting his bag.

I could never fault him. In his position he needs that big pay day once and that has to take priority especially at his age.
