Watkins looked bad at times during the season. For such a tall guy, he does not go up and get the ball. Saw too many DBs knock the ball away from him when he could have played it better. Route running needs work too. I’d let him go and get a rookie. They did well in the draft last year.

Watkins is only 6-1. His weapon was his speed, but that’s gone.

Meanwhile the Defensive Player of the Year is still on his rookie contract.

Why would they use the tag on Watkins? Yes he produced 9 touchdowns, but his other numbers were middling, 39 catches for 593 yards, and his best game of the year was week 3 when he had 6 catches (only game with more than 4) and over 100 yards (one of only two times he had more than 70 yards), those aren’t exactly $14 million per year numbers. And even if we take his entire 4 year career into account, he’s a good receiver, but certainly not a player who’s worth that type of money.

As a Bills fan, I have to warn the Rams not to be too distracted by Sammy’s flashes of greatness. Too often we overlooked his flaws because of some of the incredible plays he made. At the end of the day physically he is a superstar, mentally he is a head case and at the end of the day he does have Julio Jones type production to overlook his prone to injury.

Wish him the best but he’s not worth a top money contract. He seems like the guy you let test the market and hopefully it checks his ego.

At the end of the day, I used at the end of the day one too many times.

Watkins is way overated

Watkins would barely be worth $16 million if it was spread over four years, never mind four months.

Watkins is kinda like a role player in a Rams offense loaded with playmakers. He isn’t a 16 mil a year receiver.





#HelmetHornsMatter

“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.

“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
