The Packers need WR’s. That tells you everything you need to know about Sammy Watkins.

Sammy has no speed, Shaq Lawson is faster

[Alphadawg7]

One of the biggest wastes of talent I’ve seen.  He had it all except the passion/drive and mental make up to maximize that talent.  Could have been a true top number 1 WR - pure talent wise - but he just wasn’t mentally built to become more than a role player.  He got paid and was cool after that.  He didn’t have the drive to push himself and lead.  
 

That being said, I would be fine adding him to the PS as a potential role player if needed here.

Im all for bringing back the band, but the Metallica band version not this Nickelback one with Sammy 😆 

[Brianmoorman4jesus]

Lol just keep adding to the old bills pile. Bring him in to just complete this full circle run

[Big Turk]

Get 'Er done Beane!! Kidding. Please no.

A rare look at Sammy Watkins in his real form, without the "human" disguise:

[Since1981]

bigger let down in skill player history. Shop for the glass Christmas ornament elsewhere, please.

First JA17 pass would shatter his hands

[BuffaloBill]

One season with greater that 1000 yards, barely at that.

I get it that he can’t help where in the order and how he was drafted but ….. has to be considered among the worst draft busts ever in Bills history given his lack of production and the cost to get him.

 

Obviously Beane has not been perfect in the draft but has nothing like this bone headed decision during his watch.

 

If the Bills were going to cough up two first rounders for the dud why did they not at least trade for a proven player at the position?

Chief killer. 

[Miyagi-Do Karate]

I think he is being a very effective decoy out on the waiver wire. 

[balln]

Super Bowl champion . He had some big plays w patty cakes 

[Straight Hucklebuck]

He can join hamstring Toney in Kansas City.

 

What a bust.

Good athlete. Not a football player. Would have had a much more successful career playing a different sport

I really really thought we were trading up to get Khalil. I still can't believe we traded up for Watkins.

Agreed.

 

I always thought he could be a great hockey player.
