There are thousands of players that never make NFL rosters who are far worse than those players. Anonymity has made aholes such tough guys
    The players I listed sucked in epic fashion. Not by me, but by all Buffalo fans. Those players are people of legendary suck. They only made an NFL roster due to imperfect selection by lousy GMs like Stew Barber, Tom Donahoe and Doug Whaley. It has nothing, whatsoever, to do with being arrogant. It has to do with calling a spade a spade. Calling a player good because a bad GM let him onto a poor team's roster just makes you as stupid as moonpie.

    You know you laugh as hard as I do when a cold and timid disgruntled soul hits a striving valiant warrior in the arena with a crumpled empty popcorn container. I wouldn't have done that to Teddy Roosevelt though, he'd have socked me.

    I never said they were "good" which is a value judgement, I said they didn't suck which is totally different. They are in the top 1 percentile of people who strive to play the game professionally.

    Like I said, if you or Pinkie want to pass judgement, get off your ass and strap on a pair of cleats, shoulder pads and helmet.

    That is if they can find a helmet big enough to fit your gigantic heads.

    This suits you and many on this board perfectly. No talent hacks who can't do so they critique.

    When ya'll think of "suck" look in the mirror.
    Oh so you just dislike the word used then...

    Sammy Watkins is inferior and worse than the majority of his peers at the number 1 WR position in the NFL.

    Does that make you happy big guy?

    Somewhat. However, he doesn't have a big enough body of work to make such a judgement.

    Because he's hurt all the time. Goes toward sucking.
