TheEagle Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 (edited) We're still going to draft Pierce (grew up a Packers fan) or Watson (his Dad was drafted by the Packers in 1993), right? Edited April 14, 2022 by TheEagle 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In seriousness the way he moves reminds me a little of Jordy Nelson. He'll be gone by then. I really think so. Or very close anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are two of the eleven WR's they are going to draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says in the article, Reid and Mahomes love Watkins and that he was the guy preaching selflessness to the young WR's when there weren't balls coming their way. The Ravens loved him in that room too. He and Cobb are going to be excellent as mentors for our young guys incoming. The guy has some beliefs that are odd, the guy also has most of his family dead or in prison and was on a path to killing himself via drugs and alcohol at a young age. He turned his life around, whatever you need to believe or think to do that is none of my business. Lol I already called him annoying today. I didn't know about the family stuff and everything before now either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think there is either, just surprised me a bit. Someone else posted his stats against MVS and it's pretty similar. Not saying he is taking that role but to replace that production for 4 mil instead of 10, I don't hate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanedorf Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 https://www.packers.com/news/5-things-to-know-about-new-packers-wr-sammy-watkins He was a force during Kansas City's Super Bowl LIV run. Watkins advanced to the AFC Championship Game during each of his three seasons with the Chiefs, but his finest hour came during Kansas City's Super Bowl run in 2019. He caught 14 passes for 288 yards and a touchdown in three playoff games, including five receptions for 98 yards in the Chiefs' 31-20 victory over San Francisco in Super Bowl LIV. In the regular-season opener that year, Watkins set single-game career highs in both receiving yards (198) and receiving TDs (3) during a 40-26 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Phew just got done reading that lengthy article. Pretty out there. Doesn't sound like he'll be a problem though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PossibleCabbage Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Signing a veteran makes sense since "The Packers absolutely need to take one position as their #1 pick" is a bad thing to go into a draft when everybody knows it. Since, like, that's what's going to get a bunch of teams to trade ahead of you to take all those top guys at that position and then you're left looking at what's left.

He turned his life around, whatever you need to believe or think to do that is none of my business. I wouldn't be so quick to applaud him, he sounds like he has serious mental illness issues and his coaches and teammates were just enabling/humoring his mental illness in order to put results first instead of actually trying to help him get better. The Chiefs made no attempt to re-sign him last year and the Ravens made no attempts to re-sign him this year. So much for a "valuable locker room presence". Anyway, the Ravens signed him because of his experience in Greg Roman's offence from their time in Buffalo. it didn't work out. Now we're doing the same thing again with LaFleur from their time in LA. What makes us think this time round will be any different? The more I look into this, the more I see just how bad a signing this is. Edited April 14, 2022 by Chili Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spartacus Posted April 14, 2022 Share Posted April 14, 2022 Meh doesn't change much but at least he still has potential to be a decent piece assuming the stars align and he stays committed and healthy. Still need a WR high for sure though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
