LA Grant Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 And what kind of deal will he get? Someone is going to overpay for his potential. My bet is the Cowboys give him the stupid contract he's looking for. Dez hasn't been "Dez" for a couple seasons and they don't have much WR talent behind him either. Sammy seems like a natural fit for Jerry World. I could also see the Chargers, Packers, Falcons, or Saints making bids for him.
BillsCelticsAngelsBama Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Not real familiar with Panthers or Bucs needs but could see him move there
Kirby Jackson Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I’m going to say SF and it will be 4 years $56M with $32M guaranteed (I think that’s roughly what I said earlier) 3

Less than 10 MM per year is what I am guessing. A world of potential but inconsistent production to show for it. 1

A world of potential but inconsistent production to show for it. Be prepared to be surprised. His contract will be in the neighborhood of the Davante Adams contract. The WR class is bad and there are teams with a ton of cap space that need WR help. He will end up with roughly $14M a year. 3

If not he goes to the Dolphins I don't think the Rams need him, certainly not at what he's going to cost. He was basically behind Kupp and Woods last season in targets, IIRC. Dolphins would be possible, but I'd rather not have to deal with any kind of "Sammy's Revenge" storyline, so let's hope not. 1 hour ago, WMDman said: I think it’s either the niners or da bears Both need WR help, that's for sure... if he goes to SF, that's a potent offense if Goodwin & Sammy can stay healthy (a big "if"). I would bet against the Bears just because Trubisky is such a question mark and I'm sure Watkins is looking for a steadier QB situation (though that's probably second to $$$).
BillsWest Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 I think it will be the 49ers. They have money to spend.
atlbillsfan1975 Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Sammy would seem to be more of a West coast guy than Chicago. IF Sammy gets $12 mil + a year for 4 years that’s just head shaking. Sammy had had one season over a 1000 yards and it was barely over. Sammy has never put up more than 9 touchdowns in a season. Sammy is Peerless Price not Eric Moulds. Paying Sammy number one wide receiver money will not be good for any team. Sammy will get a good deal. At what point does the league stop saying the word ‘potential’ about a player and say he is what he is?

If that does happen, and Jimmy keeps looking as real as he did toward the end of last season, and Sammy stays healthy, the NFC West will be between SF and LA for the division. Arizona is in a total rebuild. Seahawks will be competitive but they're also doing so much retooling on defense that they'll almost certainly take another step backwards. 1 minute ago, atlbillsfan1975 said: IF Sammy gets $12 mil + a year for 4 years that’s just head shaking.

At what point does the league stop saying the word ‘potential’ about a player and say he is what he is? I don't disagree but the other thing is that a receiver with his "pedigree" almost never hits the open market. There are too many WR-thirsty teams who will pay, including several teams with good QBs. That's why I think the Cowboys are going to be among the front runners. Dak may not be "the guy" longterm, he took a big step back this year, but they need somebody at WR and it's not a sure thing that Dez Bryant comes back at all; even if he does, he's been limited the last two years or so. A fat contract for a potential superstar WR seems like a Jerry Jones kind of gamble to stay in the race with Philly for the division next year.
Malazan Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Glad we got this thread. The other two Watkins threads definitely didn't cover this.
DFT Posted March 10, 2018 Posted March 10, 2018 Don’t count out the Patriots. A lot of ex-Bills are pulling for him. I would say the Pats and 49ers would be my top 2 guesses.

If he doesn't land in SF i still see him on any team in the NFC West. 1

McBeanes saw him for what he was, an above average talent who would leave in FA for HOF $$. trust the process
