if you're "flawed logic" is too point out watkins ability to take a short gain and make it a big one, well then you're on the opposite spectrum of logic my friend...

Yea, that wasn't it. I've actually clarified exactly what I was saying multiple times so if you're going to choose to ignore it, I'm not going to waste anymore time here.

Is by no accounts comparable to sammy watkins
Disagree. I like Jordan Matthews games more in some respects. Sammy is a guy who made his living on designed screens and YAC. Tavon can do that better IMO. Givens is great at that too. Get Matthews I , Ha Ha and Matthews again in the second and I am a happy happy Rams fan.

no the problem is you're trying to bring Watkins into a debate where peoples rallying cries for Robinson have been "Keep Sam upright!" - which is hilarious since pass blocking is his knock. And as I have pointed out, Matthews is a much better prospect - and one who definitely fits more of the mold of "Keep Sam upright!"

Pre-combine: it was Matthews as the clear cut.. now after a work out in gym shorts and suddenly Robinson is shooting up the boards? Robinson wasn't even the top player at his position.

That's another reason why I don't buy into the combine hype - we've seen work out monsters flop before (Vernon Gholston). Robinson to me reminds me a lot of Jason Smith - just a lot more athletic. "Mauling Run Blocker that needs to work on his technique and pass pro."


Btw I don't ever recall claiming Watkins was a great route runner or a finished product (What draft prospect is?) - but you'll never see me saying "Keep Sam Alive with a Great Route Runner!" :D
