I'm with DJ, to be honest.
I'd get if the guy had 80 receptions and 1400-1500 yards or something but his numbers are "meh." The question to me is, why so little production with such athletic prowess in a league that simply doesn't sport many across from him that can match it?
You look at guys like George Pickens and Alec Pierce who are every bit the size and athletic specimen that Watson is and they put up the same numbers against better competition. We aren't looking at either of those guys as 1st round picks, and deservedly so.
Most of the guys these players compare to from an athletic and production standpoint have been taken in the 4th and 5th rounds in recent drafts. Yeah, this year is a little light overall in terms of top-end WR talent IMO but its strong enough I see very little chance any of them get 1st round consideration and I'm guessing 2 of the 3 end up in the 3rd, and perhaps later.
