keepthefaith Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Mike Williams might not even make the team depending upon how he behaves over the next 4 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plenzmd1 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 That groin and hammies of his do seem to be in perpetual states of distress, no? always! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve O Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Not great return but it's the going rate. He was tough to trade because of his contract. He should be very good on SF. ? 7 good years and a 4th (or maybe 3rd) is not great return on a 7th round pick? Take it any day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cage Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Good for stevie. Good luck. Good for the cap and possibly team sanity. Got the 4th back. Doesn't next year's 1st plus Steve make the trade-up yesterday even more expensive than next year's 1st plus next year's 4th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

34-78-83 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I generally agree with you but the reason the 49ers have a winning culture is making smart moves like this. Also, should we trade Kyle and Mario Williams? They are part of the losing culture as well? I'm never negative and I'm praying I'm wrong. But I see SJ being a major contributer to a good team with championship hopes while our young guys learn the ropes from Mike Williams. C. Biscuit97 - you're right I think he will be an asset to the 49ers, but to me this is as much about playing time for Woods Watkins Goodwin and Williams as it is cap$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Per schefter. For fourth round pick @AdamSchefter: Filed to ESPN: 49ers trading a conditoonal 2015 4th-round pick to Buffalo for WR Stevie Johnson, per sources. Pick can become a 3rd. I am happy for him he is going home. Thank you for your time here in Buffalo Stevie! As an aside, this is yet another example of someone other than the snarks at the Buffalo News breaking a story that impacts the Bills or Sabres.

purple haze Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I don't understand the benefit of downgrading the talent on your team, especially if you are in "win now" mode. Talent is not downgraded. Mike Williams is SJ13’s real replacement. Not Watkins. If Williams is healthy he’s a very impactful player. Watkins, Woods, Williams and Goodwin is a potentially dominant group. The question is if Mike is ready to stop the little immature foolishness off the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDorkula Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Remember the drop in the end zone when he was wide open, the stupid penalties, the immaturity, he had 7 years in Buffalo, and was merely average. Remember the guy that was just traded for, and his attitude problems, his partying, and his being stabbed... And he has never had a 1,000 yard season.

Manther Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Am I the only one who thinks Stevie is worth more than a bag of hockey pucks? I was very happy about the Sammy pick as it meant "!@#$ it, let's build now." We couldn't get a 5th round THIS year for him? Agreed. I think Stevie's best days are behind him. I love our 3 WRs (Watkins, Woods and Goodwin) and like the chance we took on Mike Williams. The only thing that would be bad for us with this trade is injuries. I really want to see Goodwin on the field a lot and not just to stretch the field. I still think we should cut TJ Graham as he is not a NFL WR.

RussellDopeland Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I'm surprised by all of the animosity that I'm reading about this. I have long-defended Stevie- but this deal is a no-brainer. Makes sense for both teams. And there have been countless people on this board clamoring for the Bills to get rid of Johnson for years- now all of a sudden there is this outcry about his being dealt. The schizophrenia here is absolutely amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerball Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Wow. Unlike some of the haters on this board and in the Buffalo media, I was not pushing for this to happen. Stevie seems like a good guy and had success with Revis Island. I wish him the best. Me too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CountDorkula Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 (edited) Bye Stevie. Take your act to the West Coast. And hey, man, Why so serious? We got a guy whos act is being stabbed and partying.
