Gopackgonerd Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Robinson gives you size, Watkins gives you deep threat speed. Not sure I'd go out and get Robinson coming off that injury. I like Watkins more out of the 2, guy is damn explosive. But Watkins might be too expensive even if we cut ties with Jordy or Cobb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its an excellent way of keeping a position group talented and cheap. There's absolutely no reason why can't we continue with that strategy? Nelson, Jones, Jennings, Cobb, Adams...enough said. It makes no sense to me to go out and splash money on a FA WR when we have proven we have been successful through the draft. If we do have to target a FA WR then of course Robinson would be fantastic. Realistically I think Richardson and Montecrif are better receivers than Watkins. Watkins is all hype imo. In fact Richardson has more talent in his pinky fingers than Watkins and Montecrif put together. Dude can ball. Well....by that measure.....somebody out of the Allison, Davis (Janis?) and/or Yancy crowd better be ready to step up at WR cause the fuels running low and the engine could sputter out.

eyecatcher Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 Why do so many think Watkins is going to break the bank. Per spotrac, his estimated Market value is around 6 million. I've seen a couple articles put his value around 6 per year also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettFavre004 Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 That is certainly closer to where I would value him based off his production, just been a lot of bad WR contracts been given out the last few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think we should just sign Robinson, Watkins and Graham and then Johnson and Butler on D...I mean thats not asking a lot ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine Spotrac is based primarily on production and not on talent, draft pedigree, name recognition, etc. There's no way Marqise Lee gets 7.5 and Watkins gets 6.
