The Buffalo Bills could find themselves over the next few weeks in a tough situation with their star wide receiver. Once again, it seems like Stefon Diggs is looking for a way out of Western New York, or at the very least giving the perception, based on some recent social media posts.
The reason that a trade would be a challenge, and also a very unlikely outcome, is that the Bills would have a great deal of work in terms of remaining under the salary cap. According to Spotrac, if the Bills were to trade Stefon Diggs before June 1st it would result in dead cap of over $31 million as well as cost them $3.2 million in cap space.
After June 1st, a trade would be a little more manageable as the team could spread the dead cap over two seasons with almost $9 million counting against this year's cap and over $22 million next season. It would also create $19 million in cap space.
If the Buffalo Bills were to trade Stefon Diggs it would also be a significant change for their offense as Diggs has been the team's top receiver and produced like a Top 5 player at the position in the NFL since joining the Bills.
In the end though, it might be out of the team's hands if Stefon Diggs decides to demand a trade. It hasn't gotten to that point but if the team believes they may not have any other choice, these are four teams that could be interested in trading for the former All-Pro.
