Kind of reminds me of the 2017 draft where everyone was high on Trubisky and Watson but not really on Mahomes... not saming the QBs styles are the same jus talent level... im fine with it though if Grier falls to us im all for it. Only teams that stand in our way is the Giants and Bucs, maybe the Broncos

Watson was the QB that everyone wasn't high on.

Based on this board, the 10-12 draftniks I follow on twitter, plus the standard mainstream football sites -  many, many folks were much higher on Watson than Mahomes.  I saw lots of "late first round" grades on Watson. 

Hell - I'd say 20% of the Jags fan regulars on this board at the time were either lobbying for that pick or saying they were at least OK with it in a trade down. 

Personally - I liked Mahomes in a 1st round trade down scenario - but he went even higher than I was suggesting to move back. So I still would have missed on him. Several prominent big boards still had him as a second round prospect right up until draft day.

I did not like Watson - though I remember plenty who did around here.
