If the Chiefs took WR Christian Watson at 30…

I'd probably grade Watson as a 4th round guy. I don't think he'd be there in the 4th when KC picks, so I'd be mostly okay with him in the late 3rd. I've moved towards the mean by being on board with late 2nd but that's not where I value him. In the end, it doesn't matter what I think but I'm a draft nerd so I guess I just appreciate the thrill of looking back and seeing if my analysis was on or not.

Par for the course.

I've become among the largest 'Watson Haters' as a result of saying I don't think I'd consider him until the late 2nd.

An FCS kid with disappointing production and genuine red flags regarding his readiness for the next level and I'm STILL willing to at least consider the possibility of taking him in the top 70 picks - somehow that makes me a hater, I guess.

Ain't a lot of room for disagreement during draft season. It's just the way it goes...
