May 7, 20187 yr He’s defiantly scored much longer touchdowns then Porters best of what 3 yards out?
May 7, 20187 yr I just hope this kid will have a decent O-line to spring him free to run. Getting Calvin Anderson definitely helps him and I hope Herman and Co are not done mining the country for experienced OL. He will also open up the passing game by being a pass catching threat out of the backfield.Â
May 7, 20187 yr He played against us both times when we had our home and home against Cal. Good to have him on our side of the ball now
May 7, 20187 yr After watching Watson’s highlights, I hope he brings Cal’s screen game coordinator with him.

I’m not concerned about our backs from 2019 forward, as I believe we’re rapidly upgrading in that area (as well as on the OL). But for 2019, Watson will be an upgrade from Day 1, based on what he’s done...and what our other guys haven’t.Â

May 7, 20187 yr Yeah, they're highlights, but I see a guy who looks better than the description. He runs with good cadence, protects the ball, and doesn't suffer arm tackles. I'll take it.

May 7, 20187 yr So happy that we got him. It might also help light a fire under our young backs to pick up the pace. I still have high hopes for Daniel Young based on his limited playing time last season. Â
May 7, 20187 yr he looks like he can play RB and Slot for us. get him the ball in space and watch him go!
May 7, 20187 yr This is another thing I like about Tom Herman. He isn't loyal to a fault and he will address needs. Brought in Herb Hand Brought in Anderson at Left Tackle Brought in Tre WatkinsÂ

True and we will see how this situation evolves, but IMHO, it isn't fair to judge Beck based on the limitations that we faced last season. Don't mean to derail this thread, so I'll tie it back to Watson. If we go through a season and Beck is unable to utilize Watson's receiving skills, then I will agree with you.Â

If we go through a season and Beck is unable to utilize Watson's receiving skills, then I will agree with you. While I agree that Beck had a garbage situation at O-Line, it is absolutely fair to judge the idiotic WR personnel packages and dumbfounding play calls. This will be the make or break season for Beck, with zero margin for error. We will likely have an improved OL, 3 obvious WR starters, some TE options, and now a mature option as a pass catching, non-fumbling RB in Watson to add good depth at a minimum. Either impress us, Beck, or hit the bricks.Â
