Oweh was a unicorn. An insane athletic profile at a position that doesn't see it and the argument was lack of production. He still barely managed to go in the first.
You can't make the same argument this year because the difference here is this is a position that sees these types every single year by the handful and the metrics get proven wrong time and again as much, if not more than right.
My question really is, why him?
Why aren't you picking Alec Pierce? Similar build, similar athletic profile, similar stats against higher competition.
Why not Kevin Austin Jr.? 2021 stats are the same. He's faster.
What about your Georgia boy, Pickens? He's alot of the same guy?
How about Isaiah Weston? Trumps them all with production and on-field acumen. Same profile. Might be a guy to watch for, he was buds with Daurice Fountain and could be a hell of a mid-round sleeper.
I guess I fail to see a 1st round WR here. He's nowhere near the player other guys have been and went in the early 2nd (collegiately). Tee Higgins? nope. Michael Pittman? nope. Deebo Samuel? nope. Courtland Sutton? no. If these guys can't crack round 1, I don't know how we could possibly champion for Watson there.
That and I just think it's stupid to even want a WR in the 1st round. There's so much talent this year between rounds 2 and 4 at the position for this team to pick from, it just seems like a waste to push for round 1 and especially so if you're considering a guy like Watson there who I don't think holds a candle to anyone I have on my list of 2nd rounders sans Bell who I just don't prefer myself because he's slow.
And yes, I do just enjoy the banter and reading your points.
