Sammy Watkins to the Rams

[Jacobarch]

Don't be surprised if Tavon is already traded and it's getting sorted. This could be the move Snead makes, to free up cap for Donald.

Lets just see how he does this year with a real #1 WR and a real Offensive staff.

The bummer is we gave up Gaines and a pick for a guy on the last year of his contract. Not sure how I feel about that.

Gaines is also in a contract year.

Remember how ticked people were that we couldn't get Watkins in the draft?

I wanted him so badly, I'm a big Clemson fan he's been great when healthy so hoping he can stay healthy now. He looked good last night.

Done. Btw there used to be a ROD member who went into stalker mode for months about the Rams needing to draft Sammy Watkins and then imploding when they didn't. He was eventually bounced.

I remember that. Some posters went full man crush for Justin Blackmon as well. Lolz...

 

[Loyal]

It's ok.
We have Buffalos top two receivers from last year.
Last time Buffalo had a good passing game Jim Kelly had hair.
Too bad Oakland grabbed EJ Manuel (blue don't).

Yeah, but he was hoping to finally get a shot to be a #1 WR....That dream is over for now...

 

[HellRam]

Wow my favorite player from that draft. He finally made it to us. Did not believe it when I first saw it. Losing that 2nd rounder does hurt some, but like many say the draft is no guarantee.

Hey Blackmon was talented hes just an idiot like Josh Gordon lol

Didn't Sammy run a 4.4????

LOLOLOL I knew we'd see your first post in the thread quoting a 40 time hahahaha

For the record a 4.43 at the combine and didn't run it at his proday letting the combine number stand.

When they said Brian Quick's name over Cordy Glenn or Sammy Watkins you could have knocked me over with a feather.

Sammy Watkins. Hoorah!

 

[NateDawg122]

When he is healthy Watkins is probably a top 10 receiver with immense talent. With him being in a contract year and being traded I imagine he's going to have a big chip on his shoulder. Even if he has a mediocre or injury - prone year that means we can sign him to an incentive- based "prove it" deal. I'm a huge fan of this trade! And Robert Woods is the PERFECT guy for him to lean on and learn this offense from. I can't wait to see how McVay uses all these receivers.

Sammy's combine 40 ..

Hopefully Sammy's wheels are back healthy

 

[WestCoastRam]

This also feels reminiscent of Washington trading for Desean, no??

 

[RamsFlash80]

Sammy Watkins. Hoorah! And Jordan Matthews too? Hoorah!!!

Matthews went to the Bills

 

[LA_Rams_#29]

Great trade for the Rams.... it's basically a 1 year try out for Sammy....if things work out you sign him to a cap friendly deal...

as far as cutting the ties on Tavon... I mean the only way to make a trade work is that we'd have to send cash so that we'd be paying for part of his contract to his new team... releasing him now doesn't work..

I guess maybe if you keep Tavon now, this trade may put Pharoe on the hot seat a bit...

I'd hate to move Pharoe though just to keep Tavon for one more year....

LOLLL The Bills fans and we are on the same page.. Shocked... I don't think they are happy though.
Now I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that SW has a healthy season.

LMAO They're losing it over there! :rolllaugh:

 

[SteezyEndo]

Judging by 6 pages of a thread that was just posted I take it this Sammy Watkins is good to go especially if healthy. I do know this was Woods cohort in Buffalo and with these two now stretching the field and having a QB like Goff should be a good combination.

They aren't happy at all .... they are adamant they are tanking this year
From what I read there they have 2 1st 2nds 2 thirds
