BillsFan130 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I think he needs to realized he really isn't that great. Is he a good receiver? Ya probably. But this guy thinks he is julio jones and needs 10-12 targets every game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkyMannn Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Offer the Rams a 3rd for Sammy back? In the Sammy thread someone suggested trading both our 2018 first rounders for him back. That way we can have 4 picks tied up in him The money is SO HUGE in the NFL, why not complain when he has so much $$$$$ at stake in a contract year. That said I am not a fan of him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramza86 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Dont really see how hard it is to just throw the ball up.... This guy is tired of QBs thinking he isnt open.

Over 29 years of fanhood Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 I think he needs to realized he really isn't that great. Is he a good receiver? Ya probably. But this guy thinks he is julio jones and needs 10-12 targets every game He was reading the Sammy watch thread here comparing him to Julio jones first 3 years. But since his year 4 isn't looking like 1500 yd and 100 receptions, I guess we can put that comparison to bed now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely why not, but only for a reasonable deal and sadly I think some team will be dumb enough in the offseason to offer him top WR money.

Kelly the Dog Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 So... in other words, he's a wide receiver. If you're only concerned with your own production as a WR you try harder to catch every ball. I think even Tyrod last year (it might not have been him) said every huddle a WR says he's open and asks for the ball. That's been a joke around the league for about forty years.

In professional sports, what sort of athlete is the most motivated? The ones who are in a contract year. Diva or not, the Bills had the chance to have Sammy playing for a contract for the next four consecutive years without having to risk a significant portion of their available cap. Sammy's unquestionably talented. Motivation + talent = a dangerous weapon for a team who's completely devoid of dangerous weapons. Trading a WR just because he wants the ball is... well, Billsy.

HappyDays Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 (edited) Exactly. If that's the "reason" for the trade, the Bills got suckered worse than I feared. There's a difference between thinking you want more production or going to the coaches about it, and making a public spectacle of it. It becomes a distraction and a problem for the team. He lets his emotions get the best of him which is why he gave up on that route on Sunday. And he's never shown he's an elite receiver in any case so we got a great return for a headcase who's just a good starter in the league.

I've never played with or coached a WR who was worth a damn who didn't express his need for the ball. Is it annoying? Sure. Is it a distraction? Not really. It's expected. Saying he's "never shown he's an elite receiver in any case" is just flat out inaccurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
