Allen scares me.  We have a ton of good interior defensive lineman who can get some push, can stop the run, and will sack the QB every so often.  But you rarely get a dominant pass rusher from a player like that.  If Allen was the next Warren Sapp, then we might be on to something.  But Sapp was an unusually great athlete.  I'm not sure Allen is.  Allen just isnt the type of player we need.  We need a dominant pass rusher and typically those are outside guys.  

 

Watson might be one more guy in a long list of examples of being a great college QB but just doesnt have the unique skillset needed to play at a high level in the NFL.  Of all the professional sports, the NFL is the one where you really need to walk through the door with the required athletic gifts.  And if you dont have it, then at best you'll be just another guy.  Watson is good at everything.  But doesnt have a great arm.  Isnt an elite runner.  Isnt even all that big... what is he 6'1 or 6'2?  At worst the guy should have a great career as a backup earning tons of money.  I'm sure he'll end up starting some games here or there during his career due to circumstance.  But I'd be really surprised if he became a fulltime starter.
