C.Biscuit97 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 If this trade was reversed, I'd be running running around my neighborhood naked screaming and high fiving everyone. We got a receiver with similar numbers in 3 years to Julio Jones who played with bad throwing qbs, in a high school run first offense! It would be amazing. The Rams' GM was on his way to get fired. We just single handedly saved his job. The Bills are so nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alphadawg7 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Scrub? He has had success in non-Wade Phillips schemes pre injury mind you. He just didn't fit their plans and is more in line with McBeane's ideal CB. MY $0.02 Where their 4th rated DB who has injury history leaves me skeptical of the value If this trade was reversed, I'd be running running around my neighborhood naked screaming and high fiving everyone.

C.Biscuit97 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Where their 4th rated DB who has injury history leaves me skeptical of the value EXACTLY Here's what I find very interesting. Posters like you, Kirby, & Kelly are very positive and knowledge fans. You guys aren't the type to just bash the Bills for no reason like other people. But you guys also recognize that giving up top talent, especially a guy who's 24, normally doesn't work out well for you. We've done this with Peters, who we got a 1st rounder for. We did this with Lynch, who basically forced our hand so it is more understandable. If I had to bet money, EJ Gaines and that 2nd round will never come close to the career Sammy will have. And always, I hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha, Kirby, & Kelly are very positive guys who try to see the bright side of Bills' moves. The fact they aren't on this just makes me more sure it was a bad move.

It sucks to think your team is a badly run franchise and is minor league compared to other teams. There's also people who for whatever reason decided the don't like players like Gilmore and Watkins. They bash Gilmore and say he's not good & then the best franchise in sports gives him big money. They don't like Sammy and the Rams couldn't wait to trade for him. Sammy and Gilmore have top 10 ability at their positions. Some folks need to pretend that's easy to find. The Rex Ryan hiring poll had a 7:1 approval rating. We're in trouble.

Pirate Angel Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 They failed to mention if he does stay healthy he will be receiving a huge pay day, fairly large chance he may not be on the roster net year and they're down a 2nd round pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocky Landing Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Hahaha 2-1 approval? You think 66% of the posters here are quality, rational, and logical? Try again. You missed my point entirely. I am very much against this trade, and was fairly (and I will admit, naively) surprised by how many people were happy with it. Obviously, we have a lot of dopey posters. What still baffles me, though, are the justifications used that have so little to do with the actual event, or, indeed, reality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloBillsGospel Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Watkins/Woods were on this team together, what did they accomplish? I'm not saying neither is talented, both are but i think as fans we over value players, Watkins can be on an elite level but will he ever be? Now he has Goff throwing to him, unless that guy is a totally different mindset this season, Sammy will be tweeting about "getting him" the ball.

Spiderweb Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 We traded an outstanding talent who is now healthy for a damaged undersized and slow CB and a 2nd round draft choice. Yeah we deserve the laughter directed towards us from LA and elsewhere. Hate the trade tremendously. This is a loser move make no mistake.

Direhard Fan Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 ESPN said we got a good deal for both trades. Who said Sammy is healthy?? Give it time and we will see. Nobody knows for sure. Have a great day. Sept 10th is almost here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other team felt it was worth it for sure at a 2nd round pick. The Bills could have kept him and risked nothing as they already drafted him. This was a no brainer for the Rams, and a no brainer that the Bills should have kept their asset unless a much greater return was offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ESPN also says that Colin Kaepernick should be on an NFL team and he isn't due to racism. Edited August 13, 2017 by Boatdrinks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
