Jaguars HC Doug Marrone addressed some reports that he was upset that the Bills traded up to get WR Sammy Watkins during the 2014 draft.
According to Marrone, he thinks highly of Watkins and was happy to have him, but he just concerned about the cost to move up and get him.
“It wasn’t the player for me. I love Sammy. We wanted Sammy as much as anybody. We were excited about that when the pick came through,” Marrone said, per Alden Gonzalez. “What’s gone on is, I was a little concerned about just giving up too much, not knowing what our quarterback situation was.
