Can Watt rush the passer? This will make you feel better. (An oldie, but goodie.)

Watt is one of only five OLBs above the 90% rating. Interestingly, four of the five were drafted in the AFC North:
Garrett - Clev
Watt - Pitt
Bowser - Balt
Willis - Cincy
(NOTE: My boy, Trey Hendrickson, is the fifth player above 90%.)

Jarvis Jones had a rating of 58.7.
Hope this score correlates to a very successful career for TJ.

Watt's sounds electrifying. Hopefully lightning strikes twice.

I was a fan of Willis. Really hoped for a double dip at OLB and ending up with Willis and Watt. Guess Watt and Adams CAN be just as exciting...Originally Posted by teegre
If TJ is two-thirds as good** as JJ, I'd be ecstatic.
**JJ has 3 DPOY awards, and if TJ has 2 of those...
Double-dipping at OLB wouldn't have surprised me at all. (They met with Derek Rivers four separate times.)
That said, since I'm positive that Bud Dupree is about to explode, the Steelers really only "needed" one OLB. They got Watt... and boom! they were done.
When I first read JJ, I thought you were talking about Jarvis.If TJ is two-thirds as good** as JJ, I'd be ecstatic.
