    Would it not be sweet to have potentially the best WR in the game, what a difference that would make to the other skill position players. You can skin a cat many different ways. Bottom line this whole thread was talking about how ludicrous it was to put Watkins trade as the 16th worst move by a buffalo sports team in the entire history of buffalo sports teams when we have no idea how good Watkins or the other first round WRs will be when all is said and done. Especially considering there whole argument was on the fact we needed a qb and this draft has no qbs worthy this year, or would we have a chance to draft.

    Maybe they would've taken Sammy.

    i'm honestly shocked the browns traded that pick. i thought sammy was perfect for them, especially seeing that josh gordon was (at that time anyway) gonna be out for the season.
    I came.
    I saw.
    I conquered.

    Maybe so, if he would have been available for the Bucs to draft him.

    I think most likely both Sammy & Mike would have been gone when the Bills drafted.

    The only way I would see that happening is if Sammy went to the Brown. The Falcons aren't taking Sammy, and I think the Raiders really wanted Mack. If the Browns didn't take Sammy, then either Sammy or Evans would've lasted until our pick. Plus, if the Bucs were enamored with Evans, then Sammy would've lasted until 8. I know it's ridiculous to think about, but stranger things have happened.

    Yeah, having Beckham would be cool.

    I don't think you understand a few things (well, thousands of things, but I digress). The NFL is an insanely profitable business. The TV contract revenue alone makes losing money impossible. And Pegula has a ridiculous amount of money. This is is hobby AND his business now. If he spends money on things, those things just make him more money.

    Selling home games is disgraceful and is a black mark on Ralph's legacy. A total embarrassment. Terry won't make that same mistake. He doesn't have to.

Many thought the Cowboys were stupid for trading multiple picks to Seattle for Tony Dorsett. You can go on and on. You can backseat drive any trade or move, but you really don't know for quite a few years.
    Moonie, you could also look at it the opposite way. The Cowboys turned Herschel Walker into many pieces that DID get them numerous Super Bowls. The equation came out, at the end of the day, Vikings net one pretty good player, Dallas nets several great players and championships by fleecing the Vikings of multiple draft choices and spending them wisely.

    Sammy is Herschel Walker in this scenario, and the Bills are the suckers, errr Vikings.

    You forgot Tony Hunter and Cousineau may be considered a bust, but the Bills' FO ****ed up even signing him. However, I believe the pick we got allowed us to draft Jim Kelly.

    The point is we are looking at the Walker trade in hindsight. NFL sportwriters and the entire City Of Dallas thought it was a bad move.

    Now, we have the same kind of people saying we ****ed up when the guy only has played 13 games.

    I guess it's so some can say "I told you so" and pump their chest or in JoFo's case, play with his little winkie.

    Yeah, the pick the Bills got from the Browns for Cousineau was used to draft Jim Kelly.

    Worked out pretty well after all for the Bills.

    It's almost as original as "I'll still whoop your ass, Son" argument on the internet.
