BREAKING: Cowboys ‘Perfect’ Signing of Stefon Diggs Brings 4 Issues…

A Longtime Speculation Gains Traction

Every NFL offseason brings a whirlwind of rumors, and no speculation seems to persist as much as Stefon Diggs joining the Dallas Cowboys. While in previous years the idea was dismissed as wishful thinking, this time, the move might actually make sense. With Dallas in need of a reliable receiving threat to complement CeeDee Lamb, and Diggs potentially on the move, the possibility of the veteran receiver landing in Dallas is more intriguing than ever.

Why Diggs to Dallas Makes Sense

Pro Football Focus (PFF) has labeled Diggs as the Cowboys’ “perfect free agent signing.” The reasoning is compelling. Dallas needs to bolster its receiving corps, and Diggs, a proven playmaker, could be the ideal addition to Dak Prescott’s arsenal. The Cowboys’ passing game has often relied too heavily on Lamb, and a player of Diggs’ caliber could alleviate that pressure while providing an explosive option in the intermediate passing game.

Additionally, there is a personal angle that makes this scenario even more appealing—Diggs would have the chance to play alongside his younger brother, Trevon Diggs. The idea of two elite brothers competing on the same team, pushing each other in practice, and bringing an extra layer of chemistry to the locker room is undeniably enticing.

Potential Roadblocks to the Move

While the idea of Diggs in Dallas sounds ideal, there are several obstacles that could prevent it from becoming a reality.

The first concern is his health. Diggs is coming off a significant knee injury, and teams will be wary of his ability to return to peak form. The Cowboys already dealt with a similar situation in Michael Gallup’s contract, which did not pan out as hoped. Dallas may hesitate to take another risk on an injured receiver.

Another question is whether Diggs would be content with being the second option in the offense. Lamb is the established WR1 in Dallas, and Prescott will continue to look his way as the primary target. With the Houston Texans last season, Diggs received 64 targets in eight games. If he joins the Cowboys, he may have to accept a reduced role in the passing game—something that may not sit well with a player of his stature.

The Financial Factor

Perhaps the biggest hurdle in bringing Diggs to Dallas is his contract situation. His market value is projected at $13.5 million per year, a figure that does not align with the Cowboys’ “selectively aggressive” approach to free agency. For the deal to work, Diggs would likely have to agree to a team-friendly contract, which raises the question: would he be willing to sacrifice money for the opportunity to play alongside his brother and chase a championship?

Will the Diggs Brothers Reunite?

There are many moving parts in this scenario, and while the fit appears logical, it remains uncertain whether the Cowboys will make a serious push for Diggs. The team has needs at other positions, and their front office has historically been conservative in free agency spending. However, if Diggs is open to the idea and the finances can be worked out, the dream of the Diggs brothers playing together in Dallas could finally become a reality.

Only time will tell if this long-standing rumor will turn into one of the biggest moves of the offseason.
