It’s pretty amazing that the Vikings were able to get much for Diggs than the Texans were able to get for Hopkins who is widely considered one of the top wide receivers in the league.
For Stefon Diggs, Vikings got:
1st rounder
5th rounder
6th rounder
2021 4th rounderFor DeAndre Hopkins, Texans got:
David Johnson
2nd rounderYeesh.

Today, the Houston Texans traded DeAndre Hopkins for a $10 million of David Johnson's salary, a 2nd and a 4th.
The Vikings traded an on-par receiver in Stefon Diggs and got four picks, including a first rounder.
Let that sink in.

And how did the Texans not get more for DeAndre Hopkins if that’s what Minnesota got for Diggs?

Diggs went for a first, fourth, fifth, sixth…
Hopkins went for a second and a RB…
Texan fans are in a world of pain
