Sammy Watkins POLL. To tag or not to tag?

General talk about Dynasty Leagues.

As a Watkins owner, which scenario are you hoping for?

I want the Rams to franchise tag Watkins, that'll motivate him to play for a big contract next season.

I hope Sammy becomes a free agent and goes to a different team, one that values him as a WR1.

Sammy is already part of a fantastic offense, I hope they sign him to a long-term deal now.

Sammy Watkins POLL. To tag or not to tag?

Postby TheRookiePro » Thu Feb 22, 2018 11:40 am

I'm leaning towards the second option. Going to Detroit or Dallas would likely be an upgrade. Baltimore could be interesting too.

I voted #2, though I don't think he should be a #1 WR for any team. I hope he's the #2 option somewhere besides the Rams.

I'm with you here. I don't think he'll be the stand alone WR1 for an NFL team, but he could be a WR1A with a WR1B. Think Diggs and Theieln type of thing.

I own no shares of Sammy so "want" or "hope" is a strong word, but I believe the Rams tag him.

Per Mike Garafolo:
NFL Network's Mike Garofolo reports the Rams are more likely to use the franchise tag on DB Lamarcus Joyner than Sammy Watkins.

I agree, want/hope too strong. I don't own him anywhere. Think he'd produce more in another situation, and Baltimore and Dallas are good ideas.

I think he ends up signing a long term deal with the Rams...a very incentive-heavy deal.

I'm taking option 4. They let him walk, he doesn't get a longterm deal but instead a prove it deal like Jeffrey but ends up just being a fringe WR2 in fantasy with a better result than Pryor but not as good as Alshon's results

I hated it when he was traded to the Rams, Granted, Goff greatly exceeded expectations this year and I feel like he can put up good numbers with guys like Kupp/Woods, but I'd still like to see him go somewhere else. Talent is still there, he just needs the right situation and to stay healthy.

The poll question is intended for Watkins owners.

I don’t own him anywhere, but have been trying to get him... I think he is anstud #1 WR who has more talent that Evans. I think his talent might start to shine through this year.

I think the Rams are hoping they can get an extension done with Joyner and then tag Watkins. But, it seems like they'll have to tag Joyner instead because a deal likely isn't close. I'm guessing Watkins hits FA and signs with the 49ers.

I hope he leaves and finds a QB he can get some chemistry with. The aforementioned Detroit and SF ideas I can get on board with. He can be at worst the WR1A, with true WR1 potential.

I keep forgetting about SF as a potential landing spot. Kyle Shanahan is one of the most respected offensive minds in the game.

I want him to leave LA, but still think things get better if he stays.
