Re: Teams picking QBs in this draft....

I've watched Watson play a lot over the last 3 years and the kid has been an excellent QB. How he manages the 4th quarter is unbelievable and the way he carries himself is impressive. Not taking away from his talent but he was surrounded by talent that was molded for the way Clemson plays offense. He plays majority of his snaps out of the shotgun formation and a lot of QB option plays. Also, a lot of his plays come from outside of the pocket. The way he plays the position...kinda reminds me of the way RGIII and Cam played in college.

I see no bigger risk in that than giving Cousins 25 million per year. He put the team on his back and beat what many people were saying up until last night was one of the best college defenses in recent history.

And there is absolutely no way he doesn't go in the first round.

Kizer will take years to develop, so will Watson(1 read offense) if he makes it as a pro.

Definately a terrible year to be looking for Qbs.

Why do you think Watson plays in a 1 read offense?

All NFL QB's take time to develop. Watson just does not get nearly the credit he should. To each their own though. I'd take him in the 1st round.

Agreed. I think Watson wrongly gets lumped in with the 'dual threat' QB label and with it all the usually rhetoric.

The worst thing about his game to me is his interceptions. He has a gunslinger mentality and a willingness to give his receivers a chance on 50-50 balls these often result in bad decisions/interceptions.

Everything else about the kid I like. Efficiency, Accuracy, quick decisions, Improvisation, Poise, Pre-snap adjustments, Post snap progression.

Re: Teams picking QBs in this draft....

Watson is way more talented as a QB than Tebow and has a way better head on his shoulders than Vince Young. He'll be miles better than either of him in the NFL.

Agree. However, how will Watson do playing under center and trying to make a lot of plays inside the pocket? That is something that he has not had to do in college. He will not be able to run the ball 15 to 20 times a game like he did at Clemson.

We run a lot of offense out of shotgun too and he seems atheletic/smart enough to get used to being under center. But I do think college coaches in general really do a disservice to quarterbacks. It's all shotgun all the time for most teams. Watching college a lot of times the teams look like they're running the same plays.
