boom, we got lucky.
actually, I think stevie will do very well in SF. stevie's has #1 receiver talent with mediocre QB's throwing to him for his entire career.
winning....
calvin Johnson, andre Johnson, Brandon marshall, Antonio brown, dez Bryant, larry fitgerald, josh Gordon.
what do all the pro bowl recievers have in common ?
none got their teams to the playoffs.
other than drafting Robert Woods, signing Mike Williams and drafting Sammy Watkins I agree with ya (laffin)
I do agree they will not "cut" stevie because of his dead money......but they would trade him for peanuts to dump his salary.
assuming the Bills make the playoffs
and assuming Watkins plays at a Pro Bowl level
and assuming EJ shows we don't need a first round QB next year
this was a good deal.....DOH !!
HOGWASH !!
if russ and doug knew for certain they would be retained by new ownership, they would have NEVER traded away next years #1.
this trade/pick was all about their selfish motives to keep their jobs.
I predict the bills will miss the playoffs and they both will be gone.
two #1's is the price you pay for signing a proven FRANCHISE TAGGED PLAYER.
they might as well have signed jimmy graham and given the two #1's to new Orleans.
the chance of Watkins becoming a franchise tagged WR is about 10%....and his agent is freakin EUGENE PARKER......laffin
this pick was about Russ and Doug mortgaging our future so they have a shot at keeping their jobs under new ownership.
Sammy Watkins is a nice player, but not worth two #1's and a 4th.
the bills got fleeced.
HOW AND THE HECK IS THIS A GOOD DEAL ?????
WE GOT FLEECED:
Draft Value Chart:
2014 #4 - 1800 POINTS
2014 #9 - 1350 POINTS
2015 #9 - 1350 POINTS
2015 4TH - 100 POINTS
total - 2800 POINTS
you could add Megatron to this team and we wouldn't improve by more than 1 game.
team gave up the 4th most sacks and we draft a WR and give away next years #1....brilliant
the bills are going to trade DOWN, that's where the value is....pick up an extra early 2nd rounder.
depending on how far down they go...in the first they can:
say if it's with Dallas at #16 then Zach Martin or Eric Ebron or any of the following:
say it's philly at #22 then Mosley, Kelvin Benjamin or Anthony Barr or any of the following:
say its Cleveland at #26 then Kouandjio or Derek Carr
