JoeF Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 Saints cut Euhus--trade was a wash. Traded what we didn't need for what they did not need and neither made it...
Beerball Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 Saints cut Euhus--trade was a wash. 755206[/snapback] More like a washout. Oh well, nothing ventured...
John from Riverside Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 I knew when he got hurt that first year he was in real trouble..... He was a real project anyway because he was so damn skinny....he really needed to add some muscule to be able to play....then he gets hurt. Here is to hoping Everitt ends up being a better player.....
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 I still think Watson could have helped the Bills IF he had come-in at the beginning of the off-season, got into shape and learned the playbook with everyone else.
LabattBlue Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 I still think Watson could have helped the Bills IF he had come-in at the beginning of the off-season, got into shape and learned the playbook with everyone else. 755264[/snapback] ...and I still think if he is a dumba$$ that he can't stay in shape on his own during the off-season, I don't want him on the Bills.

I read that as he was at a playing weight that fit his former style of defense, but wanted him a lot lighter. I don't know. I haven't heard that he was fat and out of shape.
Buftex Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 I still think Watson could have helped the Bills IF he had come-in at the beginning of the off-season, got into shape and learned the playbook with everyone else. 755264[/snapback] He signed with Houston....
Mark Long Beach Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 Doesn't Houston still run the 3-4? Not only do they suck, but they need more linebackers in general. Probably worth a look for them. (for the two weeks they had him before final cuts)
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 He signed with Houston.... I know. It will be interesting to see if he turns out to be anything there.
generaLee83 Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 ...and I still think if he is a dumba$$ that he can't stay in shape on his own during the off-season, I don't want him on the Bills. 755304[/snapback] Very good point. It's really difficult for me to understand how a player could fall completely out of shape in the offseason. See, I actually have to pay to go work out (monthly fees, gas, supplements, equipment, etc etc). I cannot imagine getting paid to workout. Guess I'm a total fu_king idiot though.
The Jokeman Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I know. It will be interesting to see if he turns out to be anything there. 755609[/snapback] Maybe Houston with pick Euhus up too and have the last laugh over the trade.
Fewell733 Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 I knew when he got hurt that first year he was in real trouble.....

Here is to hoping Everitt ends up being a better player..... 755258[/snapback] Yeah, he is really skinny. Saw him in person in street clothes and he doesn't look like a football player. Looked more like a high school basketball player. I knew then that this guy might have a lot of trouble making it if he was hurt at all.
Dan Gross Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Maybe Houston with pick Euhus up too and have the last laugh over the trade. 755770[/snapback] Euhus signed with Pittsburgh.
Billsguy Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 More like a washout. Oh well, nothing ventured... 755210[/snapback] The cost to the Bills was a wasted 4th round pick. Something was ventured, but nothing was returned. It's not a wash if you get nothing for a 4th rounder.
Lori Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Doesn't Houston still run the 3-4? Not only do they suck, but they need more linebackers in general. Probably worth a look for them. (for the two weeks they had him before final cuts) 755452[/snapback] No, Kubiak's switching to the 4-3 there. But since the guys Capers was trying to convert from college DEs to 3-4 rush LBs (Peek/Babin) are back at end, they are a little light on true 4-3 OLBs. Not sure if Watson fits that mold, though, and the Houston depth chart looks pretty well set at Mike -- second-round pick DeMeco Ryans is backed up by Sam Cowart and DaShon Polk.
Dan Gross Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 The cost to the Bills was a wasted 4th round pick. Something was ventured, but nothing was returned. It's not a wash if you get nothing for a 4th rounder. 755961[/snapback] What do you mean? We got a 2nd rounder for the 4th rounder.
Mark Long Beach Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Thanks Lori! I haven't been paying attention to them this offseason. I'm not sure the change in scheme will help them as much as new personnel. They really seemed to be behind the rest of the league in number of quality players. Just looked it up, According to yahoo sports: Aug 25 Dale Robertson, of the Houston Chronicle, reports the Houston Texans claimed LB Courtney Watson (Bills) off waivers.
justnzane Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Yeah, he is really skinny. Saw him in person in street clothes and he doesn't look like a football player. Looked more like a high school basketball player. I knew then that this guy might have a lot of trouble making it if he was hurt at all. 755841[/snapback] arguably the two best TE's of this millenium are former college basketball players in Gates and Gonzales. If everett is built like that then i can only hope he plays like them.
Beerball Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 What do you mean? We got a 2nd rounder for the 4th rounder. 756086[/snapback] Thanks, I was gonna look it up when I got a round toit!
H2o Posted August 30, 2006 Posted August 30, 2006 Doesn't Houston still run the 3-4? Not only do they suck, but they need more linebackers in general. Probably worth a look for them. (for the two weeks they had him before final cuts) 755452[/snapback] Nah, Kubiak has got them switching over to a 4-3 defense this year. That is one of the reasons they went after Mario Williams. So they would have that beast pass rusher off top to basically go along with the DL they had the year before. Everyone just moved over one slot.
