1B4IDie Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) And Well deserved. 19 Catches 366 yards and 3 TDs. (Should be 19, 371 and 4TDs) (Plus 1 pass defended in Vikings game) Edited October 30, 2014 by Why So Serious?
26CornerBlitz Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 @buffalobills .@sammywatkins has been named @nfl Offensive Rookie of the Month! http://bufbills.co/xmTqp5
Sojourner Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 According to the NFLN panel of schmucks, Benjamin is superior to Watkins with everyone chasing him for OROY... Wonder if the same sentiments are echoed after this award?
filthymcnasty08 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Congrats to Sammy! Here's hoping you grab the OROY with a Sammy-style runaway (and no showboating).
26CornerBlitz Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Congrats to Sammy! Here's hoping you grab the OROY with a Sammy-style runaway (and no showboating). Next time he's on his way to getting in the End Zone, I can see him whipping a cell phone out of his jersey to take a selfie.
Kirby Jackson Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Shocking!! Watkins is a star. I would rather have him than any player in the 2013 or 2014 drafts. The Bills may very well have gotten the best player in consecutive drafts (Kiko & Sammy). There is certainly an argument for Sheldon Richardson (and maybe Ziggy Ansah) as well.
1B4IDie Posted October 30, 2014 Author Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Congrats to Sammy! Here's hoping you grab the OROY with a Sammy-style runaway (and no showboating). I love showboating! I want showboating! Just make sure some special teamer with nothing to lose isn't tracking you down next time. Especially against the f'in Jests. High Step that in there next time, that way they can't get your ankles. Damn ankle bitting Jests. Next time he's on his way to getting in the End Zone, I can see him whipping a cell phone out of his jersey to take a selfie. That is a great idea! That should be his thing, After every touchdown take an air selfie, like draft day. Edited October 30, 2014 by Why So Serious?

BillsFanM.D. Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Guy's a monster. Credit Whaley for having the conviction to get him.
K D Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Rookie of the Year, done deal just give him the trophy now!
26CornerBlitz Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 @BuffaloBillsPR .@sammywatkins is the first #Bills rookie to ever earn NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month honors.
Wooderson Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 You can tell that he was definitely not 100% the first few games of the season. He has really shown his explosiveness the past few weeks. What a player.
TheBillsWillRiseAgain Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 The switch to Orton made all the difference. As long as Orton is in Watkins should win OROTY.
BillsFan-4-Ever Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) The switch to Orton made all the difference. As long as Orton is in Watkins should win OROTY. Or as Wooderson just posted.... It took the rookie about 5 weeks to adjust to the speed of the NFL and shine! Also note that Sammy still has a lot to learn. Case in point - the TD FAIL because of his early celebration.

26CornerBlitz Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Or as Wooderson just posted It took the ROOKIE 4 weeks to adjust to the speed of the NFL and shine! Can't agree with that because he shined pretty brightly in week 2 vs. Miami.
boyst Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Where he goes from here will be important. Much easier to fall from up high then continue to soar higher.
Kirby Jackson Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 Can't agree with that because he shined pretty brightly in week 2 vs. Miami. I think that it was more about decent QB play and less about Sammy adjusting. Where he goes from here will be important. Much easier to fall from up high then continue to soar higher. Here's the thing about Watkins, "what are his weaknesses?" That is why everyone was so high on him. His game has no holes.
thebandit27 Posted October 30, 2014 Posted October 30, 2014 I keep thinking about this: Sammy is only 21 years old. He won't hit his physical peak for another 3-4 years...and he's already a freak.
