HOUSE Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) Just for the fun of it, what would you want in return in a Sammy Watkins trade ??? Now think this out carefully, you are giving up a 21 year old Sammy Watkins and this could one of the best WR's EVER .. -- Edited November 2, 2014 by HOUSE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirby Jackson Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Lets get one thing straight, I wouldn't trade Sammy Watkins for 3 young ALL- PRO players. 3 number ones ??? NOPE. A guy like Sammy Watkins comes along, maybe every 20 years. The Browns are stupid and the fans will surely bash the trade down the road for years, the bashing has already started in Cleveland. Stupid,stupid move by the Browns. Its not really their fault, Watkins is better then expected. Just for the fun of it, what would you want in return for Sammy Watkins ??? I'll try to do it as a one for one trade. Obviously, if we get ridiculous there are a bunch of scenarios that you could create. I am factoring in age as well. Here is the list of players that I would trade Watkins for (1 for 1 and in no particular order):Yes -Watt, Luck, Rodgers, Megatron, Russell Wilson, Big Ben, Rivers, maybe -Cam, Patrick Perterson, Dez, Matt Ryan, Kaepernick, Stafford, Demaryius, Sherman, Julio, AJ Green, Probably not -Suh, Gerald McCoy, Lavonte David, Kuechley, Willis, Jimmy Graham, Julius Thomas, Gronk, Foles, RGIII, Eli, Flacco, Charles, Forte, Lesean McCoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Jackson Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 You would trade Sammy for Russell Wilson ? How much better is he then Kyle Orton ? I think that he is phenomenal. He has been great this year (better than last). His team hasn't been very good but he is definitely a young, franchise guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) Luck ... Wilson... Rogers...Dez Bryant...Megatron.... I think that's it Edited November 1, 2014 by YoloinOhio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWATeam Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Luck ... Wilson... Rogers...Dez Bryant...Megatron.... I think that's it Wilson doesn't belong in the group he is being put in. Time will show this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoloinOhio Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Well maybe not Megatron, I think he's like 29 now. Sammy's 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BADOLBILZ Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 You would trade Sammy for Russell Wilson ? How much better is he then Kyle Orton ? Great QB is worth many times more than a great WR or any other position for that matter. Sammy will be long retired when Russell is still playing at a Pro Bowl level and impacting his franchise in far greater ways than any WR could. This stuff should be common sense by now.

Kirby Jackson Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Wilson doesn't belong in the group he is being put in. Time will show this. Wilson has been way better this year than last (I don't care what the stats say). He lost his weapons and has kept his team in games. Their defense went from 1st to 32nd in terms of QB pressure and they are still competing. Russell Wilson will be a great player for a long time.

Exactly. If you had to choose one player right now in the entire league if you were a, say, expansion team. Luck would be first and Wilson is probably number two, even though guys like Manning and Rodgers are playing at a higher level. Wilson is likely, barring injury, to be an absolute star qb for 10-12 more years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year they had one of the greatest D's to ever step on the field. This year they may not make the playoffs. I think a lot of their offensive success is play design and smoke and mirrors. The league will catch up with Wilson, just my opinion. Time will tell. Can't wait for him to get that big contract though, so they lose even more players on that d Exactly.

Kirby Jackson Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 FWIW, I was a Wilson skeptic prior to this year. I thought that he was a product of the system and a good defense. I was wrong. He is "the straw that stirs the drink." He is a lot better than O thought. I would start my franchise with Luck then Rodgers but Wilson may be next.

NoSaint Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Luck ... Wilson... Rogers...Dez Bryant...Megatron.... I think that's it Dez is poison. Probably a few more qbs on my list too. And probably watt. Though I love sammys contract in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson is close for those 5 years and then you have him for 7 more when Rodgers is retired. It's not that I think Wilson is nearly as good right now.
