How do Deshaun Watson’s readings compare to other quarterbacks?
This section compares his draft training metrics with players in the same position. The bar represents the player’s percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway, then the player falls within the 50th percentile for that metric and is considered average.
A year after an ACL tear, Watson showed no negative impact last season, ranking in the top 7 for completion rate (68.3), YPA (8.2), and passerby rating (103.1). He kept running too, averaging 5.6 yards per carry and scoring five touchdowns, the third among the quarterbacks. A weak offensive line often forced Watson to run, but his 62 sacks in the top division – most for a quarterback since 2006 – were also caused in part by holding the ball for too long. Also, on all the sacks his style of play leads to, Watson often makes long wins by dodging pass rushers rather than throwing the ball away or settling for a throw. His average target depth of 9.2 meters was seventh, and his 10 out-of-pocket touchdowns were second after Patrick Mahomes ’11. And it all came about with a reception corps that couldn’t stay healthy – Will Fuller, Keke Coutee, Demaryius Thomas, and Bruce Ellington each played no more than seven games. The Texans are optimistic, Fuller and Coutee will be healthy in Week 1 and the team traded for Duke Johnson, who is bringing the passport back, in August. While the offensive line still looks shaky, it should at least benefit from the addition of Tytus Howard, the 23rd overall winner in the draft. If 23-year-old Watson takes another step forward – his degree of completion rose 6.5 points last year – without deviating too far from his aggressive instincts, he could be fighting for the best fantasy place among quarterbacks.
It’s not often that a quarterback has a breakout season as a rookie. And not only did Watson break out last year, he was in the MVP discussion before suffering a torn ACL midseason. In Week 8, Watson was first in the league in TD passes, second in YPA, and first in quarterback rushing, leading the league’s most productive offensive at 30.7 points per game. Watson showed a rare demeanor – he was arguably the best QB against lightning last season. He led the league in YPA (9.5) in lightning situations and was second in the completion rate (65.6 percent) after Drew Brees. He got an NFL high pass rating of 134.5, nearly 22 points better than the next best. In addition, the 22-year-old Watson had seven touchdowns and no interceptions against lightning. Watson was good at the downfield pass, finishing fifth in attempts over 20 yards (min. 20 attempts), but he also threw five interceptions. And if there is an area where he can improve his accuracy. Had he qualified, Watson would have finished 20th in the completion rate just ahead of Eli Manning, and his interception percentage of 3.9 would have been the third highest. Watson was very accurate in college so it is reasonable to believe that he can improve in his sophomore year. Wide receivers DeAndre Hopkins and Will Fuller are back for Watson provided he is available. That is of course the biggest problem. But Texans are confident that Watson will be ready for Week 1, and the quarterback said in mid-July that he expected the start of training camp to be full.
The Texans swapped their 2018 first round picks to move up 13 spots, bringing Watson to 12th overall. They believed they had found their franchise QB. Reigning Tom Savage will start as Week 1 starter but if he’s struggling it will be difficult to keep the rookie off the field. Savage isn’t a proven commodity itself, with two starts in three years and a percentage of 60.9 career completions in five appearances. And while Watson’s ceiling is obviously higher, his floor is likely to be higher due to his runnability. At 6-2, 221 the double-threat Watson is an exceptional athlete who can throw or poke the ball and play with his legs on the run. In Clemson’s proliferation offense, he was not asked to read the entire field and showed inconsistent choices and accuracy, resulting in 32 interceptions in 38 games. According to Scouts, as he moves into a pro-style offense and works below the middle, accuracy, especially the deep ball accuracy, can be easily improved with mechanical adjustments and better footwork. Watson’s poise and leadership skills impressed the Texans, who drove through a number of journeyman quarterbacks over the past few years while the defense carried the team. Watson will also have a solid line-up, with Lamar Miller in the backfield and DeAndre Hopkins as the receiver.
