For Stefon Diggs(outside the top 10 for WR in the NFL in 2019), Vikings got:
1st rounder
5th rounder
6th rounder
2021 4th rounder

For DeAndre Hopkins(#1 WR in the NFL in 2019)
David Johnson(backup running back)
2nd rounder
4th rounder

I get not liking a player on your team, but that doesn't mean you half arse the deal and ignore what he's worth. Worst trade of all time?

Bill O’Brien is an idiot. When you hire an idiot to do important jobs and he fricks up, it’s not his fault...it’s YOUR fault for hiring an idiot. This is the boat the Texans are in. And it’s not like he was hit or miss, he’s been sabotaging that team for years. They were just the most talented team BY FAR in that division. He’s like the pro version of Les Miles. No ability, skating by on talent.

In what world was DeAndre Hopkins the #1 WR in the NFL last season?

Don’t get me wrong, he’s a beast but Michael Thomas was the best receiver in the league last year. Julio was probably second.

If your favorite NFL team's GM is not beating the door down to make a trade with Bill O'Brien, you should fire your GM now.

Hopkins is awesome.
But no he wasn’t.

I’m not a Falcons fan. Who would you say was probably the 2nd best receiver last year?

Bill O’Brien said Hopkins is another Aaron Hernandez so there is that...

Jesus people. Alright, he’s a top 3 WR at the minimum in the NFL. Point still stands

take a look at the amount of TD Hopkins has and his drop rate compared to everyone else, then come back to me

Just like with QBs, the “who is the best” debate is kind of silly. There is an upper echelon at each position. There’s no way for us to determine who is better than the others. Different QBs, schemes, etc.

Quite possibly. Seems like a dick measuring contest gone wrong. Inexcusable move by Obrien unless there is something about Hopkins that hasn’t surfaced yet.

He's a great receiver, I'm not saying he's not good. He's not the best receiver in the league though.

2019 stats:
#16 - TDs
#11 - Rec yards
#8 - Yards / game
#3 - Receptions

BTW, Michael Thomas is #1 in all those categories.
