If you think the Bills gave up too much...

[JoeMama]

YOU'RE A STUPID ****ING BABY.

We drafted like a team that's concerned about winning today instead of tomorrow. Remember what it's like to care about the present instead of the future? No, you don't? That's because you're a Bills fan and haven't thought about winning in 14 years.

This was the aggressive, balls out move we've been waiting for, and some of you gaywads are totally upset like it's a bad thing.

Sack up, losers. Trading up was awesome.

+1 to the Bills for getting their guy.

If you make threads calling people names because of their opinions you are a douche bag.

It feels good. But I expect it will feel bad next year. Rookie receivers rarely make a big impact. This one had better.

You're doing it right now.

As crucial as hitting on Watkins is, the Bills need to hit big on at least one and hopefully 2 of those big online picks. That may turn out as big a deal to this year's team as Watkins

I made an entire thread about it? This thread reeks of you being bored looking for a fight.

The message it sent was bigger than the message itself.

Whether or not Watkins pans out is almost secondary to me.

We're actually trying to win now. Finally.

OK, fine.

Be pissed off that we did something smart for once.

What do you want from me, a hug?

Between the start of the 1st round and the start of the 2nd round, this was our net gains/losses.

LOSSED

2014 1st Round Pick
2015 1st Round Pick
2015 4th Round Pick
Stevie Johnson


GAINED

Sammy Watkins
2015 4th Round Pick (maybe 3rd Round but it never seems to work that way for us)


That's where I have a problem. Drafting Sammy Watkins basically cost us Stevie Johnson and 2 1st round picks. I hope he's worth it.

Re: If you think the Bills gave up too much...

Poor choice of words. You're confusing risky with smart. I applaud the fact that they had the stones to try something different, but it was an incredibly dicey move considering that Watkins success is largely tied to our subpar QB. I hope to hell it pays off though, or we're up ****'s creek w/o a paddle

Well I'll live with my choice of words.

EJ isn't my QB of choice but we've clearly thrown our lot with him out there.

He has zero excuses if he fails.

Re: If you think the Bills gave up too much...

Sammy Watkins was my favorite player in this draft. It's pretty hard to be upset at your team for aggressively going after a top prospect like that. It was a steep price to pay, but if Watkins ends up becoming the player everyone thinks he's going to be, no one will care. If Watkins ends up being a bust then so be it. It's not like this team ever makes the playoffs when it keeps its picks or trades back to get more picks. So why not be bold and get the guy you really want the most?

stevie had nuthin to do with taking watkins. they basically swapped stevie for whatshisname RB from philthy

of course two firsts and a fourth is way expensive enough for one guy. he better be damn good

By drafting watkins they trade steve. So yes taking watkins had everything to do with steve. Should have stayed at 9 and drafted ebron.

Ridiculous. We gave up one 1st rd pick and one 4th rd pick for Watkins. we didn't "lose" our 2014 pick, we used it on the best WR in the draft.
