    Speculation: Is Sammy Watkins a little Diva *****?

    Is Sammy Watkins a little diva *****?

    Let's look at the recent history and you decide...

    Rookie Season
    a. Gets drafted by a desperate team who moves up to draft this former Bills fan to only watch him get injured during training camp
    b. Has a good rookie season despite missing time both on Sundays and on the practice field (practice does matter)

    Sophomore Season
    a. Get injured again during TC and again is missing practice time and games
    b. Finally plays a few games and.... gets injured again! Misses more time
    c. Comes back but..... isn't as productive as other WR in his class (cough cough, Odell Beckham Jr, cough, cough, Mike Evens, cough, cough Josh Brown)
    d. *****es about not getting 'his touches' demands 10 targets a game and blast Bills for failing him
    e. Comes back to from injury and get those 10 targets
    f. Scores a Touchdown!!!
    g. but.... gets Injured on the play
    h. Misses More Time....
    i. Blasts Bills fans for 'complaining about his injuries'

    Seems to me that both Sammy's body and mind are made of glass.

    Seems to me we already had a thread on this and the " Look at Me " itch kicked in.

        I think Watkins is related to the Yankees' Mark Teixeria. Both appear made of glass, and end up on the DL for prolonged periods every time they stub their toe.

        This lowly cart.... it hits harder and has a higher yards
        per play average than the Bills' offense!

              Yeah, but Tex has the good sense to shut the fuc up.

                i read a great article a few years ago dissecting the idea of the wide receiva diva. Wish i bookmarked that thing. Basically boiled down to they don't touch the ball much, but when they do it's usually a big deal/important play etc, which feeds into the entitlement mentality, etc.
                I came.
                I saw.
                I conquered.

                  well hes certainly a lot dumber than i thought he was. he came in here appearing so mature and well spoken but that appears like maybe it was just a front. hes sorta been stringing mistakes together lately, some of them seriously embarrassing. i still forgive him but he needs to learn from this and really focus. and for gods sake sammy try to avoid ghetto ebonics in your semi-official communications. thats not representing, thats just being a dumbass

                      Soft both mentally and physically. Not a football player. James Hardy went into male modelling. Something like that would be a better profession for Sammy. Non contact and low stress.

                        Either he or his agent want out of Buffalo and he's playing his cards right.

                            See post #25:

                            SAMMY WATKINS RIPS FANS IN DELETED POST The Bills WR posted a picture of him and his daughter at Disney World during Buffalo's bye week (the post has since been deleted) and called fans who questioned his durability "losers" and told them to "continue working y'all little jobs for the rest of y'all lives."


                            See there's a thread already for this and it takes a lot for me to call someone out on being repetitive.
