The New England Patriots took some time to find a new top weapon for young franchise quarterback Drake Maye. However, they have finally made a sizable move at the wide receiver position.

After the solid signing of Mack Hollins earlier in free agency, the Patriots were able to land veteran star wideout Stefon Diggs on Tuesday.

While they gave him a very rich three-year, $69 million contract, Diggs has the potential to be a high-impact piece for New England. He is coming off of an ACL tear and he is now 31 years old, but he’s the kind of piece that could help unlock more of Maye’s potential.

Following the signing of Diggs, one Patriots legend has spoken out with a high opinion of the move.

Rob Gronkowski is a big fan of the Diggs signing for New England. He spoke out about the move during a segment on “Dudes On Dudes.”

“I think it was the right move for New England to bring him in,” Gronkowski said. “New England needs a guy, they need wide receivers, they need a number one. Stefon Diggs might not be that number one, but he’ll at least be a solid number two and I’m sure he’s got some big playmaking ability still left in the tank.”

During the 2024 season with the Houston Texans before going down with a torn ACL, Diggs played in eight games. He caught 47 passes for 496 yards and three touchdowns.

In the six previous years before 2024, Diggs recored over 1,000 yards in each year and caught a total of 52 touchdowns.

Seth Quinn of Newsweek likes the Diggs signing as well for the Patriots. He gave the move a “B” grade.

“Overall, the Diggs signing is a positive one for the Patriots, mainly due to how desperately in need of help at receiver they were,” Quinn wrote. “It doesn’t improve the offense drastically by any means, but the team can now shift its focus more to the offensive line, or at least the best player available in the draft.”
