Last Guy on the Bench Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I have NEVER felt like giving up on this team. But this is just horrendous. One of the few guys on the team with legit star potential. Even with the injuries has put up some pretty impressive numbers. Looks healthy. Is still super young. They must have seen something they didn't like in practice (attitude, intelligence? I don't know.), but still no excuse. Watkins is the kind of guy you shape your offense around. Build around his strengths. And I can't buy the tank argument. This team has too much talent to fall off the deep end. The defensive line, running game, Taylor's playmaking ability - all will keep them in lots of games. Plus there are a number of crappy teams around the league. You can't really choose to tank in the NFL. At least not for the number 1 pick. Certainly not with the Bills roster. I think Darnold has a shot to be an all-timer, but if you think you can manipulate a season enough to guarantee you get that #1 pick in a year where it's really worth something, you're a fool. Your players certainly aren't going to tank for you. So I think they've just decided they don't love Watkins and would rather have draft picks to build the team their own way. I also think they are complete tools. My interest in this season just went down 1,000 percent. And I'm pissed I just laid out the $200 for GamePass (international), which I've always previously considered a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I don't mind stacking draft picks either. This is entertaining either way. Can we try and infer what this says about how OBD feels about Tyrod? That many draft picks one could assume we are prepping for something big next draft. Or am I reading too much into this?

DallasMac Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I like Matthews. I just don't get it. If we keep McCoy and TT we are still going to be a 5-6 win team. Feel bad for Kyle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEN-CAL17 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) I look at it like this.... Sammy Watkins for Jordan Matthews and 2nd Rd pick Ronald Darby for EJ Gaines and 3rd round pick. Potentially Bills could have two 1st, two 2nds and three 3rds I actually like the trades.... I didn't trust Sammys foot and don't think Darby fit the zone scheme.

DC Tom Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Trade Tyrod to Denver, start TJ and we will be worse than the Jets.

row_33 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 with the Jets and FIsh injuries they figure that's an easy 4-0 for the Bills no matter whoze out there Bills have brought in WRs, Sammy hit by the numbers game. maybe the new regime had zero patience for Sammy?

Marty McFly Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Seriously. If the plan at OBD was tanking YTF would we re-sign Tyrod? that was stupid as ****. We shoulda just rolled with Peterman and embraced the tank. Now were tanking for 5-11 when we coulda went 3-13. im pissed Like Tyrod and Sammy were just trying to develop chemistry... this makes almost zero sense.

leh-nerd skin-erd Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Yeah, it's like the Patriots shipping off Chandler Jones last year. Not keeping him, might as well get a 2nd for him. The trade is pretty fair and we replace the WR lost with the one gained in Matthews and we still have two starting caliber CBs. the patriots have a track record of sustained success the likes of which is rarely seen in sports. the bills have a track record of getting their tongue stuck to the same light post year after year after year.

Heitz Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Justis Mosqueda @JuMosq 28m28 minutes ago The Los Angeles Rams spent $76 million on Tavon Austin and Robert Woods to trade a second-rounder for Sammy Watkins on a one-year deal. When you put it that way, it seems dumb on their part. Guess this saves all of us all the hand wringing over having to resign Sammy next year...
