Interesting to put the franchise tag on a receiver the Rams

I thought he was targeted four times.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Nope, targeted only 2x***

Maybe. But one of the targets was a pass in his general

direction that went 10 yards out of bounds on a scramble. SW was the guy "in the vicinity" used to prevent an intentional grounding...

And he caught one for 23 yds., mystery why they did not

throw to him more.

military_donation.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Honestly, SW should have caught the pass in the end zone


Jan 11, 2018, 12:34 PM

at the end of the game (that they threw to him when the game was already out of reach)...

weird to put the franchise tag on him


Jan 11, 2018, 12:35 PM

but he did have a pretty good season and stayed healthy which was nice to see.

Good Luck to Sammy! I was hoping my Redskins would have gone after him in FA but LA is a good spot for him.

It would be cheaper to franchise tag him than to try to resign him before/during free agency.

With the better weather in LA I feel his health will be much better moving forward, and in his first year with Goff they had success and should be able to build on that success moving forward.

A little surprised


Jan 11, 2018, 12:58 PM

They put the franchise tag on Sammy, but whatever...get that cash!!!

Maybe this will lead to more targets coming his way in 2018.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Sammy had a tough break with the botched foot surgery the


Jan 11, 2018, 1:52 PM

first time in Buffalo. I don't believe he's ever fully recovered. I don't see the acceleration and burst that he had at Clemson and even with Buffalo before the injury. In the league even if you lose 5% of your burst and start/stop acceleration it can be very detrimental to a career. Hard to believe he is still only 24 years old.

Happy for you Sammy!***
