He didn’t have any touchdowns or even games with 65 yards receiving after the opener till the playoffs started.

You overrate him.

If he is worth starter money, it’s on the lower end.

Think about that....the best QB in history throwing him the ball and he didn’t have 65 yards or a single touchdown in 15 or 16 games due to motivation issues and health.

Not $21m, no.

But $10-12m? I think so.

I’m a buyer at 10-12m.

He’s not worth more than that.

There aren’t many 3rd receivers putting up monster numbers. That’s what he is in this offense. They can’t all tear it up. His value is most there in the fact that no defense can account for all of our weapons at once.

Mahomes lack of health really hurt things too. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Watkins was at his best before Pat got hurt and then after he was really 100% again.

In 2 seasons with the best QB in history, Sammy has a total of

1192 yards
6tds

And made 27m

A lot of games, you don’t need Watkins to make a ton of catches to win. And I think that’s what Veach meant when he said that he was signed to get them over the hump in the playoffs.

When you get in those tight games against the best teams and they find a way to mitigate Hill or Kelce, Sammy was the guy who picked up the slack when it was needed most.

$10-12m is worth it to me all day long.

Hes a 3 option, may get bumped to 4 with Hardmon developing.

Where did you get this? Was there a video of him saying he wasn't motivated for a period of games that I somehow missed? If so, can you provide the link please? Ot any evidence at all from his teammates/coaches that speak to this idea? Links please?

Take note Sammy:

Jones is an idiot. 20 mil per year for Cooper? ****ing nodoby Amari Cooper? Seriously the worst contract ever given to a WR.

Yeah. That's a terrible contract.

His base salary is $14 million. 14 divided on a 4 year extension is 3.5 a year. 14 divided on a 3 year extension is 4.7 a year. Plus a base salary. Gonna be more than 10 a year at least this year.

Interesting that people seem to forget that or just discount it. Mahomes wasn't just out for 2.75 games. He initially sprained his ankle in Week 1 and wasn't right for 12 straight weeks. You could easily make an argument that Pat wasn't 100% himself until the playoffs.

Dinging Sammy for his QB's sketchy health is dumb and short-sighted.

Tyreek missed a chunk of games, he still didn't do much as the #2 receiver.

Like Pugs said, he got overpaid to get us over the hump in the playoffs and that’s exactly what he did. Even in 2018, he played his best football in the playoffs. If you can get him back at a more reasonable price, you do it.
