DRAFT TRACKER 2019

Death, taxes and David Long sitting under a receiver's chin waiting to jam and bully the release - all three are inevitable. He lacks height, length and makeup burst, but it is hard to find tape where those areas came back to haunt him very often. He's patient from press, stays connected to routes underneath, but may have to adjust to off-man and prove he can withstand vertical challenges against taller targets. He's not as long, loose or fast as teams like, but he's a consistent cover man with the talent to find reps early in his career.

Watson's tape was rock-solid for much of the year filled with feisty man coverage and an ability to stay near the route. However, his dreadful game against Ohio State could have general manager's backing away from him somewhat. Watson's play strength and short-area anticipation combined with his lack of makeup speed and length could push him towards a shot with a Cover-2 team if he can shine on special teams first.
