IgotBILLStopay Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I feel bad for the dude. To be super productive the first few years and then have these injuries happen just before the big contract. And this latest one could have happened after the season started so at least he would have gotten his 2018 pay. Here is hoping he bounces back next season. I wouldn't mind him on the Bills at all so long as he is fully healthy. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's a serious injury, it would likely stretch into the season, so they would owe him several game checks - unless of course he managed to finagle any kind of injury guarantee into his contract, which I'm thinking he probably lacked the leverage to achieve.

Thanks. I did not realize this and it does make me feel better about his situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had three consecutive solid seasons of over 800 yards with Philly as his first 3 in the league. Then he had a horrible injury plagued season last year with us. I didn't know that one bad season reassess the three prior good ones "What have you done for me lately?" Is a very poor way to judge players. He is 26. He was cut because he had a massive injury.

Rob's House Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 We should snatch him up now while his price is down. Hamstrings usually heal and when it does we have a discount #1 WR. This is what investors mean when they say buy low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrags with “tha whiff”. He was slurping up all the Jordan Matthews > Sammy stocks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah their WRs are pretty bad, sorry not sorry I’m glad I won’t have to watch Matthews on that team. The only Pats you should take are Brady and Gronk. All the others are so inconsistent they aren't worth it. Especially the running backs. 13 hours ago, HappyDays said: Are we talking about the same Jordan Matthews? Come on man. Matthews is a quality receiver. He came to Buffalo and played with Taylor, an impossible task for any WR, and then got hurt. Before that he had quality seasons in Philly. He's a good #2 WR. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a likely cut candidate going into camp as Agholor was coming on strong and looking ready to take JMatt's slot role. He was trending down before he arrived in Buffalo and continues his rapid decline now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
