With OJ Santiago signed to the roster, and Rob Taddford signed to the practice squad does people think that maybee Graham and or Watson could be out longer than anticipated, or has it become a lack of confidence for puting the ball on the ground constantly..??? Im not sure but we sure love the tight end positon, and we have not gotten it right since Marv Cook and Ben Coates..
To me Watson and his fumbling have been a major disappointment this year. I'm almost glad he's sitting and IR would not be a tragedy, either...
He just seems lost out there sometimes...
He might need some time to sort himself out and decide if he really wants to be an NFL tight end.
The guy is a heartbreak waiting to happen!
He'll make one monster catch and then drop an easy ball. Then he'll run a great route, catch it and end up fumbling at a key moment.
In terms of unfulfilled potential (not to mention a very shaky bread basket), he reminds me, for some reason, of another famous fumbler named Sammy Smith, a running back from FSU who played for Denver and Miami, but ultimately was nudged out of football over his fumbling...
Sammy went on to a career as a cocaine dealer and ended up in prison.
Hope things work out better for Watson.
One silver lining: maybe with Watson finally exposed as a semi-bust, Moonlight Graham will start to live up to his potential...
I sure miss Christian Fauria...
We could use some of his old-school-between-the-legs TD spikes right about now!
