Veteran wideout Sammy Watkins visited the team on Thursday and things went well enough that Watkins has agreed to a one-year deal with the team. According to multiple reports, the deal is worth up to $4 million.

Great move for the money imo.  Might not ever play a game….but i think it’s worth the risk.

him and rodgers can talk about conspiracy theories together

Sammy keeps getting work while I and the rest of you continue working y'all little jobs for the rest of y'all lives.

As long as a feather doesn’t hit him in training camp it might work out.

$4M is a fair price. I wouldn't have minded if Buffalo considered a similar deal for WR depth (in a world where we have some cap space)

 Rodgers must be thrilled

Maybe we'll finally get to see Sammy hit his true potential with a real QB.

Hard to believe Sammy went for a generational talent (or so at least someone us thought) to a guy who has bounced around the league for years.

He's just exasperated that so many people could be focused on this while the snake people run our government.

He is one of a thousand classic examples of why you do NOT trade up in a draft for any position other than a franchise QB.

 

These guys don't have the ability to evaluate talent sufficiently to justify the added cost of moving up.

 

Trade down; more picks always = better.

 

We burned a lot of capital to get Sammy at 4 overall.

 

Could have had Mike Evans at 7, Odell at 12, or Aaron Donald (for that matter) at 13! 

 

And we move way up to get Sammy.

 

Turns your stomach!

Pretty sure it was after his fake foot injury that "kept him" out of the game in London.  Bum.

You wonder if Clemson would have accepted him on academic merit, like everyone else has to compete with, if he was not an exceptional athletic talent.

 

Clemson ain't Harvard, but I'm going to say "no."
