Yeah, Highsmith is a good player. Hadn't looked at that list in a while, not great...even R4 looks rough.

I liked Deguara as a R5 guy, R3 was overdrafting him but I get why they did it. He's ok but he's no Juscyzczczczck.
Not going to hate on him because Gute took him early.

Romeo Doubs is second best odds to win rookie of the year. Not bad for a 4th round pick.

Romeo Doubs rookie of the week

[bobblehead]

I will take poor mans Davante for Doubs and rich mans MVS for Watson.

I'm trying to come up with a Doubs comp. I can't really find one. Maybe a Michael Thomas is as close as I can come.

[bobblehead]

I'm not really disappointed in Deguara; he's just a hard nosed try hard guy with little to no upside. I never expected anything. He's a guy you cheer for after you pick him in the last rounds, and roll your eyes when you consider GB grabbed him in round 3.

Good post. 100% concur. If he were a 5th rounder and hadn't been hurt we would be cheering him.

He’s built like Justin Jefferson. Similar skill set.

Ah, the problem of expectations.

He reminds me more of Davante or James Jones. His ability to separate and routes are good for a rookie, his hands need a little work.

Coach Porno has just the hands exercise for Mr. Doubs:

Interesting comments from ARod.

Aaron Rodgers just now on @PatMcAfeeShow said that there were times when a rookie Davante Adams wasn’t getting a ton of targets but he was consistently getting open. “You’re thinking, ‘Man, this guy is open. Often.’ It’s like that from time to time with Christian [Watson].”

So why did watson only have a few targets?

I think I read a draftsite comp him to Josh Reynolds from the Lions.

So why did watson only have a few targets?

and the majority of the targets were on that pitch sweep thing that sometimes counts as a pass and sometimes as a handoff

if he's open, then get him that damn ball. its not like everyone else is running around wide open

[HarveyWallbangers]

So why did watson only have a few targets?

1) He’s not getting many opportunities. He only ran 8 routes in this game. It’s mostly just jet sweeps. He’s a good blocker. I know in the Minnesota game he ran more and there were all 22 that showed he was often open.
2) I don’t think he’s the primary read often when he does run routes.
3) Rodgers alluded to being more patient and coming back to him in his progression. Basically, he said that it looks like he’s covered, but he’s so explosive that the CB doesn’t stay on him long. I think you’ll see things start to click.
