Well, he already looks good in green and gold, so he passes that.

Well if those numbers are accurate, Doubs could still end up having a slower 40 yard time. Watson is a 99th percentile 2 stepper. Doubs probably takes longer to reach his top speed

imo a quick start can be learned.

Dealing with people who exhibit the "smartest person in the room" syndrome can be a challenge. One approach is to listen their opinion while also encouraging open-mindedness. It's important to create an environment where all voices are valued.

I'm kinda glad we took Watson over Pickens. As much as I was hoping for Pickens on draft night, I think getting Watson will turn out to be the right call. He looks like an absolute monster and his versatility could be huge.

I was wanted Pickens too, but I wasn't sure about the character concerns.

The fact that Pittsburgh picked him is hilarious. It means he'll be a stud, but he'll also be a locker room problem (Brown, Claypool, Bryant)

They got Calvin Austin, too, so they'll have a pretty good group of receivers, if anyone can get them the ball.

That extra 12 lbs on Julio is probably a difference maker. Dude was machine.

So what's the difference between that score and his 10? Position specific?

Think this is the second or third time Tae has commented or liked something about Watson. Either he's got a bit of jealousy for the new girlfriend (watson) or he legit thinks he'll be good. I'm really happy with the Watson pick, even more so now, a week after the draft.

I remember Adams saying after the draft that we found a gem and then posted in May something like "this kid is gonna be the truth."

I don't think Adams is jealous of him, I think he genuinely believes Watson was a good pick.

I forgot the Vikings traded down twice with the Lions (Jameson Williams) and Green Bay (Watson). Man, they are really going to be kicking themselves.
