After the initial shock of yesterday’s trades wore off, it was time to start finding out about the newest members of the Buffalo Bills. We reached out to Bleeding Green Nation’s Brandon Gowtin for some insight into Jordan Matthews, the guy who will be taking Sammy Watkins’ place on the depth chart in 2017.

I don't think anybody can honestly give Sammy a 'ringing endorsement' without including qualifiers regarding health and potential.YardRat Wall of Fame

Re: Philly Perspective on WR Matthews
Jordan Matthews is a bum. A pedestrian slot receiver in a contract year. He won't be here in 2018.
Every veteran on this team must feel completely betrayed by McDermott and Beane.
No one is going to bust their ass for these guys. I hope every veteran I like gets traded to a contender and we simply forfeit the season without playing any games. Utterly pointless.Disclaimer: The sentiment expressed in this post is strictly for entertainment purposes only.

Originally posted by kgun12 View PostI think you are making some big assumptions here, I read his comments that he's disappointed in losing Watkins as a player and friend, but he did say anything negative about Matthews and thought very highly of him when he was his Philly teammate.
And sure, McCoy said some nice stuff in 2014 when Matthews was a rookie. And McCoy was wrong. Jordan Matthews didn't wind up being the best WR in that draft class, now did he?
What McCoy said about the trade is refreshing. He wasn't being a company man about it. He knows we just got worse.Disclaimer: The sentiment expressed in this post is strictly for entertainment purposes only.
