3rdand12 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 (edited) Is this kid Watkins looking the part or what ? He signed directly after OTAs finished for the day , walked right on in and got his cool pen ,then happily signed , is my understanding . Whaley and Co. may be on to something here. Congrats Sammy Watkins ! Glad to have you !!! Finally, a commish that works for the people. Now that I have eliminated the stress of rookie draft pick hold-outs, my doctor told me that I no longer need blood-pressure medication. The Aaron Maybin hold-out of 2009 nearly put me in the hospital. I thought we never speak of the thing we agreed to never speak of again. again.Wheres my lithium ? aargh Edited May 28, 2014 by 3rdand12
Saint Doug Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Way to stay positive.... I really like this kid and he has done and said everything to make u like him more! Lighten up NANCY! I have as many reasons to like him as I do his agent. He's a great kid and I look forward to him lighting it up.
3rdand12 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Sammy will be a STUD !! hopefully a Pro Bowler Its on.
buffaloboyinATL Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 b-b-b-b-b-but I thought Eugene Parker h-h-h-h-h-hated the Bills? The quicker they sign their rookie deal, the quicker he can get to the final year, convince them to hold out and pressure us into trading them away. The sooner they sign, the better...
Nanker Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Finally, a commish that works for the people. Now that I have eliminated the stress of rookie draft pick hold-outs, my doctor told me that I no longer need blood-pressure medication. The Aaron Maybin hold-out of 2009 nearly put me in the hospital. The strain of that nearly put Maybenot in the hospital.
Matt in KC Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 Ha ha, nice catch!! In all seriousness they should use a bunch of pens like the president and then auction them off for charity. Great idea! I would definitely send a message to the Bills. I'd think this would be a no-brainer way to do some good, and get some good cheap PR. I'd bid on a Sammy Watkins rookie contract signing pen!
BillsBytheBay Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 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 saw that someone signed in the field house. That was cool.
K D Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 I had a dream we signed Spiller too. Wishful thinking I suppose. I can't imagine what it would be like to be a broke college kid with nothing in your bank account and then next thing you know you have $12,000,000 in there lol. Giving a 21 yr old a big lump sum like that can be dangerous. Hopefully he stays on the right path and focuses on football
jimmy10 Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 I have a different peeve. For a $20 million contract, they should be using a nicer pen than a First Niagara giveaway. Maybe it's Sammy's first big time sponsorship.
