BringBackFergy Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Just a random aside, I always find it funny that they set these guys up in an office/conference room to sign their contracts. Yeah, I wish one of them would say "Hey, let's sign this contract at Duffs over a few beers and some Medium Hot wings, extra crispy and saucy"
Kirby Jackson Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Yeah, I wish one of them would say "Hey, let's sign this contract at Duffs over a few beers and some Medium Hot wings, extra crispy and saucy" "Hold my calls Debbie and please send in Mr. Whaley and Mr. Overdorf."

26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Watkins signs rookie deal with Bills Buffalo Bills first round draft pick, Sammy Watkins signs his rookie contract. “The best moment of my life right now,” said Watkins. “It’s a great accomplishment. I’m proud to be a Bill. I want to thank the organization for trusting and believing in me.” Just an hour after participating in his first OTA practice with most of the roster, Watkins put pen to paper becoming the sixth draft choice in the seven-player class to sign.
beerme1 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 It still baffles me how many Bills fans were against the new CBA. Um , Ralph was pretty against it to as I recall.
YoloinOhio Posted May 28, 2014 Author Posted May 28, 2014 Um , Ralph was pretty against it to as I recall. He was against certain parts of it.
dubs Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Great news!! Now all we need to do is lock up Hogan and we're set. Ha! Doesn't get old!
FluffHead Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 It's a rookie contract. No leverage to the player Thanks what does that have to do with anything? big dif between dealing with an agent when a player is a rookie and locked into one team Thanks for that
26CornerBlitz Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Sammy Watkins on Signing His Contract <5:40> The Bills first round draft pick talks about getting his contract signed on Tuesday, how his first OTA went, and his chemistry with EJ Manuel.
Miyagi-Do Karate Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Yeah, I wish one of them would say "Hey, let's sign this contract at Duffs over a few beers and some Medium Hot wings, extra crispy and saucy" Done and Done. Sincerely, Mike Williams (OT)
Nanker Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Can't this guy do anything wrong? It's gonna be a B word to find things to complain obsess about this off season. Edit: Why hasn't Kujo signed yet... what? He's a friggin' prima donna? Edited May 28, 2014 by Nanker
Saint Doug Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) b-b-b-b-b-but I thought Eugene Parker h-h-h-h-h-hated the Bills? Parker's his agent? I expect this contract (assuming he's decent) to be (1) unfulfilled in its entirety and (2) to be the first and last contract he signs with the Bills. Let's fully enjoy the next 2-3 years before he becomes "disrespected", sits out, develops a prolonged "injury" or demands a trade. Edited May 28, 2014 by kas23
GG Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Just a random aside, I always find it funny that they set these guys up in an office/conference room to sign their contracts. I have a different peeve. For a $20 million contract, they should be using a nicer pen than a First Niagara giveaway.

Ha ha, nice catch!! In all seriousness they should use a bunch of pens like the president and then auction them off for charity. Edited May 28, 2014 by Kirby Jackson

IDBillzFan Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 don't you love the new CBA? So much less stress in my life.... I remember Goodell's press conference about the new CBA. "Most importantly," he added, "this really will go a long way to eliminating much of the stress in the life of JR in Pittsburgh. I remember four years ago, in protest, he sent me what looked to be a half-dozen worn out F5 keys. We got the message. And he's all the better for it."

I really like this kid and he has done and said everything to make u like him more! Lighten up NANCY!
It's in My Blood Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 BUST!!! You sir, deserve a banishment from TSW.
