As much as I wanted the BILLS defense front 4 to play like the COLD FRONT from last season, I couldnt help but think if Mario Williams played to his protential all the time and did not take plays off and cry about it he could have done better that what K.Mack did this year
PromoTheRobot Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 And no one even bothered to watch this kid play at UB,
Passepartout Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 He is awesome indeed! He will be if he stays healthy.
Freddie's Dead Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 As much as I like Sammy, I was really hoping Mack was the pick there.
White Linen Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 As much as I like Sammy, I was really hoping Mack was the pick there. Yeah? Ever give a thought to what this team would look like without Sammy Watkins?

Uffalo Ills Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Yeah? Ever give a thought to what this team would look like without Sammy Watkins? So true. For the last half of the season, he pretty much was the entirety of our pass game.
Freddie's Dead Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 Yeah? Ever give a thought to what this team would look like without Sammy Watkins? I'm just saying that I liked Mack at the time better than Sammy.
White Linen Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 I'm just saying that I liked Mack at the time better than Sammy. OK but I'm not sure that conveyed in your post. I think a good follow up sentence would have been; Sammy as it turns out was the better choice for our team.
Nanker Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 But we don't need any help on defense... especially edge rushers and linebackers.
simpleman Posted January 9, 2016 Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) Yeah? Ever give a thought to what this team would look like without Sammy Watkins? The Bills front office would have made other choices to fill the gap at WR. No one could predict exactly what the team would look like at WR this year. The possibilities are endless. Without Sammy, the Bills could have drafted another WR who could fill the gap nicely in a year of such deep WR talent. As a result of drafting Sammy, the Bills then traded away a good SJ and got nothing that year in return. They then traded even further down further in the 2nd in a year of deep WR talent to make up for lost picks and got Kujo and Richardson, at present wasted picks. They then traded for a pick that they used on Henderson and got Bryce Brown. Neither is exactly a high positive impact player. After trading so much for Sammy, they completed a number of trades to compensate for the loss of picks in that year and last year. Overall the trades and the rest of the draft did not go well after picking Sammy. P Brown was the only thing close to a hit, and after this year, not so much. Who knows what talent they could have acquired if they had not done so many trades and maneuvers to compensate. And who knows who we would have kept at WR or brought in as a FA as WR. Not to mention how drafting Mack would have affected our choices in the draft in 14 & 15. Would we have used our picks on Brown, Johnson or Stewart if we had selected Mack? Would we have released Spikes? Who might we have chosen instead that could have caught the ball for us. To assume we would look exactly like we did this year at WR, just minus Sammy is false. We will never know what we would look like as a team or at WR if we had drafted Mack over Sammy. We might have been better, or we might have been worse. Edited January 9, 2016 by simpleman
