00:00Okay, here is why Stephon Diggs needs the Patriots, not the other way around, in just 60 seconds.

00:06They already proved they have the leverage.

00:07He skipped voluntary OTAs, he's in Miami, he's on the boat, asses right in the face.

00:12They threatened his money, they threatened his roster spot, and what do you know, just out of the clouds,

00:16oh, you know what, I will show up to voluntary workouts, I will be there for a minicamp, thank you.

00:22He's 32, or he will be, November 29th.

00:24He tore his ACL in October.

00:27He still hasn't passed his physical, that's according to him.

00:29He's likely not going to be ready week one, according to me.

00:33I follow the timeline of Kendrick Bourne from a year ago, and the Patriots, by the way, still haven't paid him a dime.

00:39Which ties into having zero interest around the league, nobody wanted him.

00:43That includes Houston last year, they could have brought him back, they didn't.

00:47Instead, they traded for Christian Kirk, and they drafted two rookies out of Iowa State.

00:51He wore out his welcome elsewhere earlier in his career, Minnesota and Buffalo.

00:55If not here, then where? Who's going to sign him?

00:57That is why Steph Diggs needs the Patriots more than they need him.

01:02Garbage.

01:03Pretty good.

01:03No.

01:04Airtight.

01:05No.

01:05If you weren't convinced by my point, you might be even more so now after listening to you.

01:09You might be like, oh my god.

01:10So that's why you wanted to go first?

01:11Oh my god.

01:12You wanted to set the tone.

01:13Yeah.

01:13And then have people hear my defense after the fact.

01:16You don't think he could sign with another team somewhere?

01:18I haven't seen a team that's interested in him yet.

01:20He didn't have any visits.

01:21Maybe not for this money, but I feel like if he, and it's going to come down to the physical

01:25too, and like that's sort of, you know, I would take that part almost out.

01:30Like if he's not healthy enough to play, then like, all right, then he's not playing.
