    Cop out or reality? I have not called him a bust, but, I am realistic in my expectations. So far he hasn't lived up to his draft status, I hope that does change in the near future.

    I average out stats by career production. You can have all of the ifs, ands, and buts you want. A player is judged by production over his career. If you read what I wrote I don't believe you will find I've called him a bust, but, based on the price paid, the potential is there.
  3. Cripple Creek
    If his career were to end today, most definitely. Only a homer wouldn't see it as such.
  4. Cripple Creek
    I apologize for having higher (winning) expectations than you do. If you feel, today, that Sammy Watkins was worth the price paid then we have nothing to talk about. Your mind is made up, mine waits to see results.

    Was he worth 2 first round picks? If not, then bust...if not with the Bills but with someone else then still a bust from a Bills draft perspective. It's really simple, you either live up to your draft status or you do not. The question "was he worth it" depends on the numbers he puts up.
  6. Cripple Creek
    I'm not ignoring anything. He's good when on the field, really good. If he can't overcome the injury bug and put up numbers worthy of a 2 first round pick WR then he is lacking. Someone who does not live up to their draft status is by definition "a bust." The window hasn't closed, but, it is creeping down those runners.
  7. Cripple Creek
    that may be your criteria, don't push it on me. Has he live up to his draft status? No. could he still? Yes, but the window is closing. His current production at the price paid say he was not worth it. You can throw out per snap this, per series that...doesn't matter to me. His overall production will be the determining factor on whether he was a "bust" or not.
  8. Cripple Creek
    of course, production matters over all else, doesn't it? General ??? At what point does potential become wasted potential (whether through personal stupidity, injury, scheme etc)?
  9. Cripple Creek
    hopefully it is both, no?

    Because last evening we saw a fantastic game between a conference winner and the team many said was the team that wanted to play. Exciting football...as a Bills fan I understand that this is a foreign concept to you.

    There are many receivers I would choose over Watkins, even some who are long in the tooth. He has not lived up to expectations. (this cannot be denied) I don't know what that makes him, but, to this point you cannot say he was a worthwhile pick.
  12. Cripple Creek
    The very least that the Rose Bowl did was show us that we need an 8 team playoff. Agree?
  13. Cripple Creek
    And yet, a dry hole is a dry hole. How long are you going to keep drilling?
  14. Cripple Creek
    Now THAT'S a scoop.
  15. Cripple Creek
    He does have hand. and disdain.
  16. Cripple Creek
    I'm certain that they would block him from interviewing elsewhere.
  17. Cripple Creek
    It's a football decision and they aren't football people. I hope their involvement is a simple rubber stamp. If they don't trust Whaley to do his job they should replace him.
  18. Cripple Creek
    His history with Elway may make it difficult for the Bills to retain him.
  19. Cripple Creek
    Depends on how involved the owners are in the process.
  20. Cripple Creek
    This post clearly shows that Russ Brandon does indeed know nothing about football. How about you take a look at the jets qb situation and ask yourself "do I want another 2-3 years of this?"
  21. Cripple Creek
    It might be a money maker, NFL Europe certainly wasn't. Don't think you'll see it happen.
  22. Cripple Creek
    Tis bunk.
  23. Cripple Creek
    This post, whether talking about players or coaches is just so much bunk. There are 32 NFL teams given a choice of being a HC or not...they all will take the job. With players...it's all about the money.
  24. Cripple Creek
    Both HC/staff and players.
  25. Cripple Creek
    Draft and FA...bring in the right people. Not sure why you're capitalizing.
