Face it Bills fans, every year we are overly optimistic with optimism. As of right now after 5 preseason games, the Bills look like they have not even had a preseason and are entering training camp. I was overly excited about the Watkins pick, but now am growing concerned that Doug Whaley wasted a #1 for next year and is another Buddy Nix! If you don't have a good QB who can get him the ball, what good does it do having a receiver with Watkins talent? Secondly, I am beginning to question taking a Receiver that high until I am proven wrong. Look at the preseason that Marquise Lee is having for Jacksonville and many think Brandin Cooks of the Saints will be a better rookie than Watkins because he has Drew Brees throwing to him, not the hesitant overly-confident Manuel. I live in ACC country and saw many a Manual game when he was at Florida State and he never overly impressed me. I hope I am wrong, but he doesn't have that gunslinger mentality and that is what you need in today's NFL. I am beginning to think the Bills would have done better keeping Fitz! At least he can get the offense in the end zone.
The only hope this teams has is the defense and with the loss of Kiko Alonso and now Watkins having bruised ribs, it never ends with this team and organization. When will the futility end!
