Watson has played in only 20 football games since moving to the United States of America from Manchester, England.
US PRESSWIRE
Watson played just one season for FSU after transferring from Saddleback College in California where he was considered one of the nation’s top junior college offensive tackles. Watson is still very new to the sport, having not been introduced to it until after he moved to the United States from his hometown in Manchester, England.
After playing in only eight games at Saddleback, Watson played in all 12 games for the Seminoles in 2012 and earned an All-ACC Honorable Mention for his play. At 6’6, 320 pounds, he has NFL size and is expected to impress scouts with his tremendous athleticism.
Watson joins cornerback Xavier Rhodes and defensive end Bjoern Werner as the third Seminole underclassmen to enter the NFL Draft early.
