John Ross isn't a good comp? The guy is the fastest player ever in the 40-yard dash and he makes the point that elite athleticism doesn't make a WR good or worth taking high.

Watson is not the type of guy you consider in a conversation with guys like Calvin Johnson and Randy Moss, and I feel like that's the context you're trying to create for him. They were good-to-great FBS WRs with elite athleticism not subpar FCS receivers with elite athleticism.
