Anybody else think it's weird that Watkins still has a picture of him in a Bills uniform on his twitter avatar and background?

 

They guy tweets regularly and would think he'd update it to his current team.

better unis and he knows it

Would anyone take him back IF he wanted to resign???

 

Absolutely why not, but only for a reasonable deal and sadly I think some team will be dumb enough in the offseason to offer him top WR money.

If Harvin was on the hot signing list, anything goes.

Already discussed in Sammy thread

One thing that would help and which may be possible with the upgrade is the ability to jump to the end of the thread seamlessly while on your mobile. I very much appreaciated that a new thread was made on this topic since I don't have to mine the whole thread to figure out what it's about or what the current discussion is. Like the new thread here.

Yes, nothing worse than discovering a 75 page thread that has probably veered off course around page 12.

People seem to either ignore or forget that the last time he complained about targets, he was not only right, but they threw to him more and he dominated. ;)

People seem to ignore that several Bills members said he was selfish and cared more about his own production than winning ;) Sounds true based on this latest Twitter stuff

You gave a half a dozen lectures to two college students? You're in high demand!

So... in other words, he's a wide receiver.

If you're only concerned with your own production as a WR you try harder to catch every ball. ;)

 

I think even Tyrod last year (it might not have been him) said every huddle a WR says he's open and asks for the ball. That's been a joke around the league for about forty years.

Exactly.

 

If that's the "reason" for the trade, the Bills got suckered worse than I feared.

In professional sports, what sort of athlete is the most motivated? The ones who are in a contract year.

 

Diva or not, the Bills had the chance to have Sammy playing for a contract for the next four consecutive years without having to risk a significant portion of their available cap. Sammy's unquestionably talented. Motivation + talent = a dangerous weapon for a team who's completely devoid of dangerous weapons.

 

Trading a WR just because he wants the ball is... well, Billsy.

There's a difference between thinking you want more production or going to the coaches about it, and making a public spectacle of it. It becomes a distraction and a problem for the team. He lets his emotions get the best of him which is why he gave up on that route on Sunday. And he's never shown he's an elite receiver in any case so we got a great return for a headcase who's just a good starter in the league.

I think the one "with no dog in him" was Stephon, not Sammy.

I've never played with or coached a WR who was worth a damn who didn't express his need for the ball. Is it annoying? Sure. Is it a distraction? Not really. It's expected.

 

Saying he's "never shown he's an elite receiver in any case" is just flat out inaccurate.
