Though Todd McShay recently listed him as the Redskins 10th overall pick, I've been watching more and more mock drafts push Wisconsin DE JJ Watt down to pick 17 and 18 of the Patriots and Chargers; this is terrible! Wisconsin-connection aside, I believe Watt is one of the top 10 players in this draft and would still be the Cowboys pick at #9 on most people's boards if Tyron Smith hadn't quickly shot up. Watt adds a blend of power (34 bench press reps) and speed (as low as 4.76) that most 3-4 DEs do not have, to go with his non-stop motor and "football player" personality. Almost every one of his measurables are among the top 5 DEs in the draft and after playing TE previously, his potential is still high. I know that if any team past pick 15 gets Watt, they will end up getting the steal of the 1st round.
