SJDK Posted December 29, 2017 Posted December 29, 2017 A couple years ago I commented that Sammy Watkins would be injury prone and basically the same as Brandon LaFell ( Check my old comments). I was abused by this board received warnings from mods for defending myself and I stand here today to show just what has happened with these two players. Since 2014: LaFell receptions: 224 yards: 2957 TD:18 Watkins: receptions: 184 yards: 2987 TD:23 *Includes this years stats so far i hope we we win Sunday and get some help to get in the playoffs. The last game I was at was the Jacksonville game in ‘99 with flutie taking in the bootleg. I just want to make a point that we need players who are good, available, and mesh with the team. Coach Mac has the right idea.

NoSaint Posted December 29, 2017 Posted December 29, 2017 40 fewer catches but more yards and TDs sure does point to Sammy being a different type of player. 3

Keep chopping. 3 1

That he is basically exactly as productive as Brandon LaFell and the original point in March of 2014 was that he wasn’t worth that first round pick

That is true but the other part of my comment was about how injury prone he is. If your best ability is your availability then where does this put Sammy?
