#34fan Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Lee Evans couldn't hold Sammy's jock. In fairness, Lee could have held it.... He just would have dropped it before completing the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Player Available Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Yeah Why are we trading him again? Because he said that he thought NFL players should be paid more? He's been playing pickup basketball. It's obvious he is transitioning. He should be cut immediately. He is a malcontent and like anyone want's too get paid. We need more guys like Tyrod who take pay cuts too stay im Buffalo. Sammy will he gone. And the Bills will be the losers on that 24 year old kid.

26CornerBlitz Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 Know what's ridiculous? A union for millionaires. Let that sink in. Every player in the NFL is a millionaire? You must think the Screen Actors Guild is ridiculous too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobobonators Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 I suppose you can paint this as NFL players not being bright, but, that's really not true. They are actually smart enough to realize that their careers are much shorter on average than baseball or basketball. The last time I looked the average career is about 3.3 years. NFL owners know this and they do not believe that an NFL player would be willing to lose 1/3 of their career earnings by striking for an entire season. Owners can simply wait them out. The next negotiation will be a doozy and the union and their head will give it a good run. The average MLB career is a little over 5 yrs. all contracts are guaranteed. To eat sunflower seeds half the time. Half a billion dollar contract for a single player within the next few years. The NFL players association better give it a good run.

CommonCents Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 It's true, but running him off the team accomplishes what besides making our football team worse? At some point your highest paid players need to not only contribute but lead the less talented players. Is Watkins capable of that? I have my doubts.

I have my doubts. Nonsense. OBJ looks like one helluva leader for the NYG, doesn't he. Not every high level player has to have a role in leadership of a football team.

Not every high level player has to have a role in leadership of a football team. Someone does and the Bills don't have it. 99 has proven to be a total (*^*&%^$^#even when Kyle tugging on his shoulderPads. Watkins needed a Boldin type of WR to learn from and that mistake is on OBD. He could be a piece on a winning team but I'd like to hear why anyone thinks he is going to turn things around in BLO. OBJ and Watkins comparisons end at them both playing the WR position and being immature. OBJ is a dope but his compete level is what makes him a star.

He doesn't need to turn anything around in BUF. He just needs to stay healthy and he'll produce as he's already demonstrated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demonstrated in a 7 game span at the end of one season? How long as he been here? What has he accomplished by being a demonstrative jackass throwing his hands up at his QB and pouting to the media about targets all the while being on the bench due to injury. Find me a team that has won with the likes of a 14, and 99 being two of their highest paid players. This isn't the NBA, talent alone doesn't win rings.

His numbers in both of his 1st two seasons were just fine and he's not the 1st WR to ask for the football. Deion Sanders was a key talent for both the 49ers and Cowboys SB teams. You think anyone was looking to him for leadership on those teams? Nope. They just needed him to make great plays and he did just that. Leadership came from elsewhere. Try again.

First OBJ now Deion Sanders a hall of famer...are you being serious right now? Watkins is a nobody outside of a few Bills holding out hope that he puts it all together in a contract year. "Mature beyond his years" that was a ludicrous statement, Can we agree on his immaturity level? "Number one play maker in the draft" I believed that long before it was said on draft night. Can we agree he is not the best player from that draft? Watkins didn't even get offered his 5th year option and has been seen hooping while awaiting the teams clearance to practice fully. Can we agree Watkins has a lot of catching up to do? When you watch the afore mentioned OBJ and Sanders do you not see something different than from when you watch Sammy? It's not even a conversation worth having at this point, if he goes bonkers in a contract year then it's worth revisiting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They view him as a poor leader who doesn't have the mental fortitude to be a winner. I think some Bills fans feel similar about Sammy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Gilmore was until Belichick and the Patriots paid him in a mega UFA deal. Let Watkins get to UFA and we'll see if the league doesn't know who he is. Commonsense? Sure.
