More on Watson and the QB board
He's a depth option, not a priority pick: #225 overall, #39 at his position. Draft late or stream based on matchups.
His current ADP in ESPN drafts is 170.1 (roughly round 15 in a 12-team league). We rank him #358 in 1QB Full-PPR drafts, so he is fairly priced.
We project 11.5 PPR points per game across an expected 10 games — approximately 115 points for the season. His typical game last season landed between 8.4 and 15.4 (middle 50% of results), and that puts him #101 in projected scoring (#358 on the 1QB draft board once positional value is applied).
He delivered at least 75% of his average in 71% of games, with a floor of 5.1 and a ceiling of 18.4 fantasy points. He boomed (125%+ of average) in 29% of games and busted (under half his average) in 14%.
