Straight up? You have a deal. We'll go on fantasy production (6pts for a TD+0.1 for every yard).
I was just thinking actual production. Your statement was Watkins outproduces Quick + Britt, so, in my mind, if he does not exceed their totals in both TDs and yardage I win. If you can live with that we're on!

So if Watkins gets 1,000 yards and Quick and Britt get 350 combined but Watkins only gets 2 TDs compared to Quick and Britt's 3 then you win?

Nah I'll just re-phrase my prediction to "Sammy Watkins out produces the combined work of Brian Quick and Kenny Britt using a formula that makes sense" and leave it at that.

I'll get in on that. Put me down for $2M. We should easily have that much money by then.

Awesome. Me too. Now you can cheer on Watkins, and I can cheer on Quick/Britt.

(didn't think that one through, did you?) lol.

If Britt or Quick break out it's $2m i'm more than happy to give up, if they both suck (or Watkins is just awesome) I have $2m to comfort me. Win win.

Alright, I'll take your formula. I just don't typically think in fantasy terms. Book it?

Oh, I forgot to tell you. Everytime you use the word Watkins, I get to deduct $50K from your bank.
So maybe I'll just have your $2M before the season is over anyway.

You have to read the fine print.

But seriously --- it's a bet I'm more than happy to make. There's no way you win this one. Not with him in Buffalo.

Is that why you gave the Rams draft a D? Simply because this years Jerry Rice got passed over?

Why wouldnt you go A and then go the other way? Just curious.

I like to be pleasantly surprised rather than massively disappointed. For what it's worth the 2013 draft is an A with the possibility of becoming an A+ depending on Bailey and Jones, or a B depending on Austin. 2012 is a C with the possibility of becoming a B if Jenkins is who I think he is or an A if one of Quick or Givens also ever decide to show up or an A+ if Brockers also becomes a Pro Bowler.

Tough way to live life man. Positive things normally happen to those who think positive. If you constantly go through life thinking negative, well you know the rest..

I doubt any of our draft picks are going to become better players because I gave them a D rather than an A, if you think it will help feel free to change my vote. If there was an "incomplete" option I'd happily go for that.
