I'm not quite sure why exactly, but I really dislike Auburn OL prospects.

The Watkins injury narrative is such bs.

A guy is injury prone if he constantly misses games here and there for multiple injuries spread out over time. Not if he has one serious injury that costs his a large chunk of a single season.

Any player in professional sports could have a major injury at any time. Few consistently miss time.

4 years in the league and he has only played 16 games once, his rookie season, which was 2014. He missed 3 games in 2015. He missed 8 games in 2016. He missed one game in 2017.

Your reading comprehension sucks.

All but one of those games were from one injury. And that one game last year wasn’t due to injury.

The one game he missed in 2017 was because him and the rest of the starters were rested ahead of the playoffs, he wasn't injured.

How do you figure?
He missed Weeks 4, 5, 7 in 2015. He missed weeks 3 through 11 in 2016.
How are those from the same injury? With all those games played in between those missed games?

I see that now. I originally seen the 0's in week 5, but I guess he just didn't get any targets.

John Mara pretty much put it to rest, I'd say, unless the Rams go full reerun with an offer.

I think a 2 year deal with 0 guaranteed for league minimum would be a very smart move for Veach and would kinda fit his mold. Young, talented, former high pick, low risk high reward.

He flames out or makes a mistake, cut him with no loss.

He dedicates himself (which seems like is a good possibility) and we can at worst flip him for a pick or get a comp pick if he goes to another team.

The point still stands that other than a freak injury he’s missed 3 games due to injury. It’s not nearly as bad as people make it seem. He’s no more injury prone than most of our studs IMO.

There's no way I would invest the kind of resources that trading for OBJ would require to bring him onto a team.

If he did go to the Rams, then he will make Goff look better than he is.
But that still won't be good enough.

If you have the right QB, however, then the weapons you have will be plenty good enough.

No way I build a team around a WR.

I’ve been on scarcely and haven’t seen you around... are your thoughts on Watkins?

Personally I can understand why they made the move, but I’d have rather seen that much spent on a defensive player or 2.

If it works out like they hope, it could make the offense borderline unstoppable.
