Your hard on for Watson bashing is impressive.


And sad because it doesn't even make any sense. Nobody on here has said they thought Watson was going to be the next Jimmy Graham or anything. At least as far as I know of. I don't even think Watson's roll changes at all. Hill's roll however will change and I think he will get way more targets than Watson.

If you graded Ben compared to all the other TE's I would give him a solid B.

The fact that CSP didn't reach for a TE in the draft or a mid to high tier TE in free agency says more about Hill than any of us could ever say. Now he just has to prove it.

It ain't sad, its an opinion. Very good to have those on a message board, can't just always wear black and gold sunglasses and hope everyone plays Grrrrrreaaaat.

Watson has been a solid veteran backup for us and for a fan to not think that he's all of a sudden going to become this big offensive threat for us is a fair perspective. Maybe his production and talent surprises many of us this year but he's old, loves jesus, and hasn't been anything that impressive post catch for us. I kind of side with Lester on the Watson doubt. I don't think he'll be "bad" but i sure am hoping Hill becomes the more explosive TE for us cause it think we'll need it. Possible we're wrong... but hey, we have opinions that we're voicing.

Agreed

Not agreed

They have been looking to Watson too much in practices to say Hill with get "way" more targets. Although it is still early and that could change. There has been nothing to indicate to me that Hill will be the number one TE.
