I should probably just go over to Draft Planet and read about it, but what's the consensus on DeShaun Watson? I know there are doubters there. And I also know that in order to get him, we'd have to pay a king's ransom in future draft picks. Fine. If he, or another top QB is available then we need to pay whatever needs to be paid to get him. Watson just strikes me as having the moxie to be a great QB.
Think about it. Over the past 15 years, we'd drafted almost EVERY other position in the 1st round.
2016: Traded out for Chris Jones (DL)
2015: Marcus Peters (CB)
2014: Dee Ford (OLB)
2013: Eric Fisher (OT)
2012: Dontari Poe (NT)
2011: Jonathan Baldwin (WR)
2010: Eric Berry (S)
2009: Tyson Jackson (DE)
2008: Glenn Dorsey (DT)
2007: Dwayne Bowe (WR)
2006: Tamba Hali (OLB)
2005: Larry Johnson (RB)
Most of these ended up being really good players. And yet we STILL can't cross into the land of the elite. And we ALL know why.
Find the best QB in this draft and pay whatever you have to in order to get him. We can find the other positions later in the draft and in FA/UDFA.
