Yea, Watson can throw the deep ball. I'm not sure how far we're talking about though. He's thrown a couple of 60 yard bombs, but I can't recall anything deeper than that. There are a couple of videos over on youtube where you can see him throw those 60 yarders.Dak was top 3 for yards all time in SEC and top 10 in TDs. He ran plenty. Not sure about the bigger arm - Watson can sling it.
What say you @Edisto_Tiger
I think Watson's strength is his touch. He puts the ball on the money, consistently. Yea, he can sling it, but it's his ability to drop the ball right in the basket that has always impressed me.
Shortcomings? I think the guy is so confident in his ability that he forces throws that just aren't there and that led to a lot of picks this past year. The other big one, which was frustrating for me, was having tons of his balls batted down at the line. I don't know if that is on the OL or on Watson for not finding a throwing lane.
Turn the music off, it sucks, and just watch. I'm no expert or scout, but I think he threw one of the prettiest balls that I have seen over the last four years in college football.
