I refer you to the Benoit’s tweets thread, RFIP.
About Watkins Ram future?
You might find it interesting reading.
The Rams paid a high price to obtain Watkins in giving up a 2nd round pick.
At the time, they knew if he produced as a #1 WR what the cost to extend him would be.
In addition, they knew at the time the role as a deep threat they wanted him to pay.
I'm not buying Benoit's assertion that in this offense they don't want to allot much money to a deep threat receiver because if that was true, trading for Watkins at the price they did was ridiculously stupid.
EDIT: They may move on from Watkins because they don't deem him worth the cost but it Won't be because they don't want to allot that much money to an outside receiver.
