- Stefon Diggs was asked about Odell Beckham during an interview with Complex
- Diggs thinks Beckham is a 'great teammate' that would fit Bills talented roster
- Von Miller, who played with Beckham in LA, has also tried to recruit the WR
Pro Bowl wide receiver Stefon Diggs has joined the list of Buffalo Bills players openly trying to recruit odell beckham jr. to join the team.
Previously Von Miller also campaigned for Beckham to sign with the Bills, and now Diggs has given his thoughts on the matter in an interview with Complex.
'I feel like he's a great teammate. I don't live in the world of social media or anything like that, but I feel like he's hands-down one of the best players in the league, especially when he's been healthy,' Diggs said.

Beckham was able to rehab his image with the LA Rams after an unsuccessful stint with the Cleveland Browns
'He's a great teammate, and it's not just that adding him would be helpful – he's a great player and great person.'
Diggs like many others saw the impact Beckham had on the Super Bowl champion Los Angles Rams passing game, after joining an already talented roster that saw Cooper Kupp take the league by storm.
Diggs once played across from another pro bowl receiver in Adam Thielen, in an offense that saw both of them put up tantalizing numbers.

Since making this amazing catch against the Dallas Cowboys in 2014 Beckham has been regarded as one of the leagues best receivers.
'We have a lot of talent on this offense but as a team, you're always thinking about adding the right people, and he definitely fits that mold. If he does come, that would be great; but if he doesn't, it's OK, it won't be the end of the world.'
It is noteworthy that Diggs specified 'when healthy' while discussing Beckham, as that has been one of the major hinderances that have plagued him throughout his career.
Beckham is currently recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered during the Super Bowl and it is not yet known when he will be ready to return to the field.
It is the second torn ACL Beckham has suffered during his career after suffering the same injury while playing with the Cleveland Browns.
