Where he should be picked
Watson is a borderline first-round talent with the potential to develop into a long-time starter. Although I could see a team falling in love with his athleticism, intangibles and winning pedigree, Watson is probably destined to come off the board within the top 50 selections, probably between picks 25 and 45.
If I could pick a few teams that would perfectly match his talents, I would cite the Chiefs, Bills, Giants and Cardinals as strong fits. The Chiefs, in particular, would be an ideal situation due to the presence of a proven QB developer (Andy Reid) and a veteran QB (Alex Smith) that would allow Watson to redshirt until he is ready for a bigger role. Considering how the strategy worked for Aaron Rodgers and Philip Rivers, Watson would certainly benefit from joining a team with a long-term developmental plan in place.
