Christian Watson is known for his speed and big play ability as a vertical threat. But his knowledge of the game and versatility to line up across the formation are what gives him a truly high ceiling as a wide receiver.
An important part of the Matt LaFleur offense is that the receivers are able to move around pre-snap and able to fill a variety of pass-catching roles. Having this element can create favorable matches for the offense, and specifically in Watson’s case, with the attention that he draws and the space he opens up with his speed, his presence can generate opportunities for others.
