For all press that Romeo Doubs received in the summer, the broad recipient from the Green Bay Packers 2022 draft class, whose most hopes were Christian Watson. This FCS star put an exclamation point for his assessment at the draft mix.

Watson, who is listed as 6 feet 4.208 pounds tall, runs 4.36 in 40 yard-dash. He registered a vertical jump of 38.5 inches, and his hands measure 10 inches. That kind of draft-combining profile would entice an NFL team, especially a franchise that recently lost one of the NFL’s best wide receivers, and convince them to pick him with one of their picks. first pick of the second round.

Against one of the NFL’s best defenses on Sunday, Watson put the Dallas Cowboys in the smoker’s hands until they fell apart in his hands. His previous highest total of receptions this season was three. Watson topped it one Sunday, but those four catches resulted in more than nine yards. He received a total of 107 yards, and also made three touchdowns. If it weren’t for Watson hitting the ball wrong, he might have had four touchdowns during the day.

Although Watson was the first offensive player the Packers selected in the 2022 draft, much of the season’s hype went to the Doubs. Watson underwent knee surgery over the summer and he spent time in training camp. Doubs, a Nevada-based FBS player, was one of the best performers at the 2022 Rugby Senior Tournament. Only one had a faster MPH speed in a single play.

Watson continued his injury as the season began with a hamstring problem that kept him out of action, and he was treated for a concussion in Week 9. When he was on the field, Aaron Rodgers was playing. not impressed. Watson played for the last time in the Packers’ Week 8 loss to the Washington Commanders. It was after that loss when, during Rodgers’ weekly appearance on The Pat McAfee Programhe suggested that the player who make too many mistakes need to be branched.

Without the dynamics of Watson facing the Cowboys, the Packers’ could not have claimed their first win since October 2. In recent weeks, their offense has been as cramped as the traffic around. presidential convoy. The Rodgers football fans are familiar with, who can put 30-yard passes in the pass catcher’s side pocket, didn’t work that way.

Maybe he has become too dependent on the current Las Vegas Raider Davante Adams, maybe the new reception team has adjusted poorly to the offense, or perhaps 38-year-old Rodgers has run out of juice and renewals this contract is a bad move by Packer.

That’s all still on the table, and at 4-6, the Packers have a long way to go for the Wild-card spot with both the Cowboys and New York Giants both above .500, and final playoff spot of NFC is being held by the new and improved San Francisco 49ers with Christian McCaffrey.

Maybe 2022 isn’t salvageable, but if Watson starts performing on the pitch like he did on scouts, the Packers’ offense in the future will look like the lead unit to a good record. of NFC in 2020 and 2021.
