Can someone explain the Huddle's obsession with this kid? What has he done since he's been in the league?

My guess is Watkins tests the market and ultimately returns to LA.

Played in terrible offenses with quarterbacks who can’t throw accurately over 15 yards and gotten injured just about every year.

i think that sums it up

He also went to Clemson, that is a big factor as well.

Youth (only 24), production and fit (compliments Funchess on the outside).  There is injury risk and the price tag would hurt though (mainly due to comp picks).

Can we please stop with all these threads about the same damn players, can't we put all of these in the same one. Make one with just FA wrs, man it's not like we are going after any of these high priced guys.

look at the QBs he has played with

The guy is immensely talented and has matured at lot since entering the league

I would be beyond thrilled if we got him, he and Cam would put up numbers.

I am not so sure about Sammy and Cam putting up numbers.  Since Cam entered the league, he has thrived with fast wide receivers.  15-1 came with Ted Ginn, Philly, Funch, and Cotchery.  Olsen was the stud in reception yards.  Sammy ran a 4.48 at the combine, and has had multiple injuries in first 4 years, which leads me to believe his speed has decreased.  I am just skeptical at this point about the obsession with Big slow instead of short fast.  My call is Mike Wallace for a bargain, and let Funchess have 1 more year to prove it.  Good depth and field stretching guys will improve run game and give Funch better opportunities.
