DeShaun Watson: The Time Is Now
Yeah. This is happening.
Watson will almost certainly be on the board for our first rounder. He will possibly be on the board for our second pick. I understand 100% of the critiques here. He's from a spread offense. He hasn't run a huddle. He hasn't worked under center. He has off games. He's undersized... I get it. I get it all. This guy plays like a goddamn champion. Put aside the fact that he actually is one -- he is a locker room leader with toughness beyond his years. We need to take him. He needs to be the QB of the future in Kansas City. |

The Chiefs would be more likely to pick Santa Claus than any qb in the first. Or second.

I think the Browns take him with the their second 1st round pick.

Wherever he goes in the NFL, they would be well advised to let him sit a year and learn how to be an NFL QB, no matter how bad the team is or how bad the QB situation he's a part of is.

I was really impressed with his composure last night. Dude took a beating and stared slowly but just kept it moving forward.
Thag was the most impressive thing IMO |

He will be a top 10 pick, maybe top 5.
No shot

His build isn't really that slight. He's built more like Mariota than RGIII. Really, he's probably built at least as thickly as Smith. He could maybe get a little thicker in his lower half but that's true of anyone in their early 20s. He's plenty sturdy enough for this level, IMO. He'd be an exciting pick and a fun guy to root for and watch develop. I'm still not convinced he'd be the right pick but I'd absolutely defer here.

I've been watching quite a bit of his play via Josh Norris and he just makes really bad decisions and struggles with accuracy. He appears to have a very slight build and his propensity to take off and run reminds me of RGIII. I've said this in a few other threads but I think it'll take several years (if ever) for him to become a good pocket passer, especially since he'll need to fight the urge to run when he can't find a receiver. |

I personally, want KC to take him. I think he'll slip more than people realize.

There is a great article on si.com about him in which Shanahan rightly points out that he'll get killed in the NFL if he takes off and runs. I think he'll go early but he's going to be a yuge project for whichever team selects him and if it's a team like the Jets, he's hosed. |
