Listed at 6-3 340.
He had a questionable motor in college... Which is why he was picked so late.
Will he be in shape? Can he withstand double teams on an every down basis?
My money says hell no.
Branch would be perfect for them at NT with Watson as the backup.
With Carlos Dansby as an OLB, they have a really good blitzer and decent run stuffer. Hayes makes a great ILB run stuffer in the middle. And Wilson is a premier safety.
They have a bunch of the pieces. But still need CB help badly. Rolle is weak and Macklin isn't much better.

Are the Texans staying w/ the 3-4? I can't remember.so that's:
Cardinals
Jets
Patriots
Cowboys
Chargers
49ers
Browns
Ravens
Is that right??
Kubiak has the Texans back in 4-3.Are the Texans staying w/ the 3-4? I can't remember.
I didn't follow what Watson did or didn't do in AZ this season, so I can't speak to how he matches up with Branch. That said, if I was in Wisenhuts' (sp?) shoes I'd be looking at Okoye or Carriker before Branch. If you assume Watson was okay if uninspiring, then Okoye developing and even platooning with Watson is the better long term choice. Carriker has been compared to both Seymour and Warren by various draft sites, I'm sure Wis and Russ Grimm know how that kind of talent can impact an offense. Branch can take his disappearing act to someone else, preferably Miami.I'm pencilling them in for Alan Branch.
so that's:
Cardinals
Jets
Patriots
Cowboys

49ers

at 6"6 330 with a questionable character I wouldn't count on him for a NT.
Coming in out of shape for a pro-day etc.
Plus at 6"6 he will be quite easy to get under.
He could work out as a NT, I just think they are counting on Gabe Watson.
so that's:
Cardinals
Jets
Patriots
Cowboys
Chargers
49ers
Browns
Ravens
