dbflaBill Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 How much say do you think star players have in getting players to their team. Mackensie Alexander and Jayron Kearse both were teammates with Sammy at Clemson as well as grew up in the same area. Mackensie wont fall that far to the bills, but say he does what do you think the likely hood Sammy is praising trying to one or both to buffalo?

C.Biscuit97 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 He is 3 years ahead of them. He might not even know them. That said if we are letting Watkins decide who to pick, we should fold the franchise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbflaBill Posted January 20, 2016 Author Share Posted January 20, 2016 (edited) He knows them very well. Its a very close community where they come from. I agree if we're letting him pick but star players are often do at times have some minor say. But both players would help the team. They signed his brother, who also knows Alexander and Kearse well. He played really well for Philly, and IMO is better than McCelvin and much cheaper. Edited January 20, 2016 by dbflaBill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Riverside Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I think Kearse is a realistic possibility because he is a good football player....not because Sammy would want him. I think Sammy just wants to win Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think scouts listen to players on who to draft I don't think so either, but I don't think it's unheard of for scouts/coaches to ask current players questions about a former teammate's character or work ethic.

YoloinOhio Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 I wouldn't mind getting Sammy's brother back for DB depth if Eagles don't keep him. He can play a little, especially on ST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloHokie13 Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 If anything they would simply ask his opinion assuming they are already interested in the player. Like an impromptu "Hey, we're interested in this guy and we understand you know him personally. Is there anything we should know, and what would you think if we picked him up?" Most extreme case I can think of is Arizona drafting Tyrann Mathieu. They had a ton of input from Patrick Peterson on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
