26CornerBlitz Posted August 12, 2017 Share Posted August 12, 2017 This guy is extremely productive....EXTREMELY productive. He has been in the league three years and his numbers are comparable to many greats. What the moves they just made say about this regime at the Bills is they are about productivity and not potential. So am I. I like it and think its an upgrade. Sammy was CONSTANTLY injured. I don't see that stopping. Best case scenario he has an absolute breakout year.. Then what? We pay him huge money and we're still not sure if he is durable. Jordan Matthews is an upgrade. I don't care how could somebody can be. I care how good they are and how productive they are. Matthews has proven he can be very productive three years in a row. Constantly injured? Exaggeration. Matthews an Upgrade? No he's not at all. Look at their 1st two seasons for a real comparison.

"If I stay after to do releases with a receiver, it's going to be Jordan Matthews. So for me, even in my daily preparation, I now have got to find a new Jordan Matthews. And I know he's kind of been that guy in a bunch of guys' lives, whether it be Carson Wentz or Trey Burton, Zach Ertz -- he's had a big role in a lot of guys' lives, not only just what he does on the field."

Hes a solid player on the field and great guy off the field. Wonderful addition. Unfortunately for him every miniscule mistake he makes will be magnified x1000 bc of the person he is replacing.

"To all the people that have a problem with me being injured you guys go out there and play this sport it's a 100% injury rate," Watkins' now-deleted Instagram comment said. "I'm not first or last person that's gone be injured difference from me and you guys y'all mad and I'm not get a life and goto work stop worrying about my job because I'm good on this end and forever will be losers most of you just wish to be in this position so continue working y'all little jobs for the rest of y'all lives since everyone once a response here go one have a blessed day." ~ Sammy What a piece of trash.

Sounds just like the sort of guy that McD values. Even though I'm guessing that type of player would be valued by just about any coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 (edited) @christrapasso#Bills WRs Jordan Matthews & Zay Jones are pretty similar athletes.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 @christrapasso #Bills WRs Jordan Matthews & Zay Jones are pretty similar athletes. Somewhat lanky, explosive & great quick-twitch ability relative to size For comparison sake what's Sammys please? I'm just curious if there is a measurable that stand apart. Not debating him vs these other guys in talent. That's well covered elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

folz Posted August 14, 2017 Share Posted August 14, 2017 Kind of disappointed to see the negative posts in a thread started to welcome Jordan to the Bills. Especially since there are plenty of other threads to post your negative opinions in. He didn't ask for this trade and has nothing to do with Sammy no longer being on the team. Don't blame him for this. And in regards to the drops, if you prorated Sammy's 2 drops out to the same number of targets that Matthews had, Sammy would have had 4.5 drops last year. Will a one-and-a-half drops per season difference really change the outcome of this year? 27 players had 5 or more drops last year. 15 had 6 or more drops last year, including Brandon Marshall, Odell Beckham, Michael Crabtree, Mike Evans, Travis Kelce, Demaryius Thomas, and T.Y. Hilton. Not to mention that Jordan was playing with a rookie QB. WELCOME TO BUFFALO JORDAN! I look forward to seeing you play and tear it up for the Bills!

YoloinOhio Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 @christrapasso Surprised to see in @NFL Next Gen Stats that Jordan Matthews had same avg yds of separation (2.8) as Marquise Goodwin & Stefon Diggs in '16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
