I'm cool with this. Only 26 and a former teammate of Geno Hayes from his FSU days.
To use the words of Gus:
He'll be given a chance to compete.
From my friend who's a Bucs fan when asked about Watson "Yeah he's solid, good playmaker. He's undersized but gus will turn him into a ball player like he does with every linebacker"
He told me the other LB that the skins signed is a scrub though
What a great opportooony for this guy!

That is good to hear!
He hasnt done much of anything so far in his career, but ok I like the additions
Russel Allen to bench? Welcome aboard Dekota.

He is soooo going to say this at the next press conference haha
Think he replaces Allen and hopefully we get another speedy olb in the draft
I havent seen anywhere else that says he signed but he is in town

Watson will be lucky to make the team imo

I love how Gus says opportunity.
Anyways this sounds like a decent move. I remember him somewhat from his Florida State days.

You don't sign guys who "will be lucky to make the team" on the first day of UFA.
He'll have a chance to compete and, if nothing else, should be a beast on special teams.

Nobody is reporting it tho, NFL.com guy might be jumping the gun, report is he is meeting me Gus Bradley tonight
He hasn't signed yet:

Guys are signed and later cut all the time
Watson has done next to nothing his entire career. He is a depth player who will probably be outshined by a younger rookie come training camp.
Im fine with this, i dont know him much but it couldnt hurt right?
