DriveFor1Outta5 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 (edited) Not every fan attacked him but it was pretty cringy every time he posted something. Can't feel good when you have an injury that you can't help. That happens to every NFL player. He needs to realize that. Especially a name as big as him. What about all the people walking around Buffalo with Watkins jerseys? Edited August 11, 2017 by DriveFor1Outta5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangarang Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Jordan will put up more yards than Sammy this year. Lolololo By at least 20% Assuming he plays all 16 games and Sammy only plays 8. Otherwise you're probably lying to yourself if you think that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Formerly Allan in MD Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I'm game. Over-rated, oft-injured. Now we just need to whack the scrub that was throwing him the football. Give the Rams another call. Sammy is not overrated. Yes, he's been injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jester43 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 (edited) I'm not happy Sammy's gone...always loved him and I do not view him as damaged goods. most of his lost games are due to one injury which, while serious, can be overcome permanently and (i predict) likely will be. what's more, Tyrod's inability to hit guys in stride certainly contributes to everyone's injury risk.

hemma Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Better than letting him go for nothing. The GM and HC are thinking long term and Sammy wasn't part of their plans. That's how I see it, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_with_it Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Loved him, so I hate the move. Most talented Bill in a long time. Loved the little jobs thing, and how butt hurt so many " tough guys" were by that comment. Hilarious, all running for " safe space" crying in their beer. Not in meltdown mode at al as I love this team more than any player. But make no mistake, this is a tank. If the Bills get a franchise QB out of this somehow, they will be ok. But SW was too good for the loser fans that will post negative things about him in this thread. Yep, any fan of a team that thinks it's ok to post derisive comments on a player's personal Instagram / social media is a complete and utter loser in life. SW was justified in his respons to those imbeciles.Ironic you say that Sammy is justified in degrading ither humans but fans arent allowed to be critical of Sammy. Yikes. This is the pretend Jordan Matthews is good thread. Lololol.I thiught it was the oretend Sammy Watkins was never injured and never didnt play through pain thread.

Perk71 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 There will always be unhappy people with any decision the team makes. No way of getting around it. I'm glad they got something for him. Looking forward to the future and moving on. Go Bills! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonborn10 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 My hope is that they tried to sign him to an extension and he said no or put out a number that was ridiculous. After that they made the right move. Sammy was a top four player on this roster but it was unlikely he would have been here after this year. In the end he will get paid, most of the posters on this board will have little jobs, and if Beane trades away those picks to move up in the draft the board will scream even louder - me the loudest!

billsfan_34 Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 With all the doom and gloom. With all the OMG it's a full tank. With all the people in this place that want to jump off a bridge. This is the place for everyone that is happy that Sammy is gone. I'll be first. I don't hide it. Never have. I've hated Sammy here since he cost us 2 first rounders. Hated him even more when he called out the Buffalo Fans. Calling us "losers" and saying we have "little jobs". Hated him even more when he kept getting hurt. Not injured, Hurt and refused to play through pain. I for one am extremely happy he's off this team. I am even more happy we got a WR that has outperformed with less support than Sammy has had. Happy we got a 2nd rounder back in the trade. Happy we ended up with a CB to replace Darby that is probably just as good and with the same upside going forward. And of course again with another pick. This isn't a tank. If it was we would have just doubled up on draft picks instead of asking for players in the trades. This is not a tank because we still have McCoy, Taylor, Hughes, Dareus, Wood, Kyle. This is not a tank or we wouldn't have signed Boldin in the first place. Boldin and Mathews both outperformed Sammy in the last 3 seasons. This is a thread for those that think it's hilarious that everyone is in full meltdown mode. This is a thread that enjoys the fact that we not only have players that can and will compete this season, but are finally ready to rock and roll come next years draft. Let's hope the Pegulas are paying a lot of money to scouts this season to figure out what QB we are going to draft next season of Taylor doesn't improve significantly. And chances are, they will draft one anyway. Well said- all my thoughts exactly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 I'm not really happy he's gone, but: a) I hated the decision to waste an extra first round draft pick to get him, b) he's Glass Joe c) he'll want a contract based on his college production rather than his pro production, and, d) they got a good player and a high pick for him, so not upset about the trade either.

Not college d) they got a marginal to bad CB and a 2nd rounder. Not an impressive haul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_with_it Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 Ironic that you describe the classless use of social media to harass a player out with the family at a park as " being critical" of him.These were watkins words:To all the people that have a problem with me being injured you guys go out there and play this sport its a 100% injury rate, Watkins wrote. Im not first or last person thats gone be injured difference from me and you guys yall mad and Im not get a life and goto work stop worrying about my job because Im good on this end and forever will be losers most of you just wish to be in this position so continue working yall little jobs for the rest of yall lives since everyone once a response here go one have a blessed day. Every doctor on the Bills staff states he was dealing with pain and could play through it. This comment was directed at someone that had a problem with him being injured, but cleared to play. Thats being critical. Sammy was a completely immature, nonprofessional, childish behavior in his lashing out. To state other wise would be deceitful seeing hiw Sammy apologized and deleted the immature attacks. Whats Ironic is you saying sammy was innocent after sammy himself admitted guilt in the form of an apology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
