26CornerBlitz Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Watkins is set for free agency in March and Saturday’s game ended a year that saw him rank fourth in targets from Rams quarterback Jared Goff. He made those targets pay off with eight touchdowns on 39 catches and he said he’d like to return for another tour with the team. “You see this team building something, with the coaching staff and the players,” Watkins said, via the Los Angeles Daily News. “It would be a pleasure to come back but, you know, it’s a business. I’m looking forward to talking to the coach and seeing where my future is at.” Edited January 10, 2018 by 26CornerBlitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miyagi-Do Karate Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Wonder if decoys sign their contracts with invisible ink. Maybe Robert woods will sign it on his behalf. 1 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Would be a pleasure “but” - very conditional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magox Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I think ideally for him, it would be best if he went to a team that has a QB that can throw (Goff can) but where he would also be the undisputed #1 choice (at least that he would perceive himself to be and to which he isn't with the Rams). I don't think the Rams are a fit for him. Clearly he didn't win over the confidence of Goff or he would have been targeted more, right? If he were smart (which he isn't) money should be his secondary concern for 2018 and go to wherever he could get the most targets on a 1-2 year prove-it deal loaded with incentives. Then look to get PAID in 2019 or 2020. I'm not sure he's mentally got it in him to make it happen, but if he has extreme confidence in himself, that would be the best solution.. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Baltimore and the Jets might back up the Brinks truck for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DriveFor1Outta5 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 (edited) Of course he wants to stay in LA. Reality might be a different story. Edited January 8, 2018 by DriveFor1Outta5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 39 catches though, so those 8 td’s are somewhat misleading. Additionally, no one is catching 8 td’s in Dennison’s offense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorkington Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I'm glad he got the opportunity to go play with a real offense and QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not terrible by any stretch of the imagination, but he's not nearly as good as what you and many other posters on this board believe him to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrEpsYtown Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I think he goes to San Francisco and plays with Jimmy G. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're making things up. You don't know what I or anyone else thinks him to be. That's an easy point to try to make. You don't really say anything other than just the other person is wrong.

I'm not sure what more Dennison or this staff would hope for than that in the passing game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProcessTheTrust Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 He's not trash, come on...but he's not a real #1. A real #1 fights for the ball, high-points 50/50 balls. Sammy needs the ball to fall right into the bread basket. He has AMAZING hands, but he doesn't use them to their potential, if that makes sense. I think Houston should go after him, let him be a #2 to his boy Hopkins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what more Dennison or this staff would hope for than that in the passing game. I agree with that, but 39/8 likely translates to 25/3 in this offense. Sammy played in a high powered, well coached offense in LA. Dennison needs to go before any of our players can contribute.

BuffaloBill Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 What else can he say? It reflects poorly to prospective teams to bad mouth your current situation. He may stay but I would have to believe it would come with a discussion about an expanded role in the offense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
