NFL fans all know how it works by now. Sure, a team president, general manager or head coach may tell the public that they don’t have any intentions of moving so-and-so, but behind closed doors it is usually a very different story.

That’s exactly what appears to be unfolding in the case of Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs, Howard Cosmell of Total Pro Sports reports.

While the team has made absolutely no indication that they intend to trade the Pro Bowl wideout, the latest report from Buffalo appears to indicate that the team is still “privately” considering moving Diggs — if the price is right, of course.

While speaking on the “Broncos Country Tonight” podcast earlier in the week, NFL Insider Benjamin Albright confirmed that a Stefon Diggs trade is still a very real possibility this offseason.

According to Albright, sources close to the organization have told him that the team won’t say they’re looking to deal Diggs publicly, but they would consider it privately “under the right circumstances.”

Based on some of the wide receiver trades we’ve seen over the past few off-seasons (like the ones that saw Tyreek Hill and Davante Adams join the Dolphins and Raiders, respectively), there’s no doubt that the Bills could secure a significant haul by dealing their superstar wideout.

However, it should also be noted that the Bills are viewed as a top Super Bowl contender. And they’re already pretty thin at the wide receiver position. Would they seriously consider dealing their top offensive playmaker, despite the clear lack of depth behind him?

For a team that’s in need of more wide receiver help, not less, trading Diggs should’t be viewed as anything other than a move in the wrong direction for the Bills — if they decide to take that approach.
