Deshaun Watson potential?

[Styles]

Has anyone with his inaccuracy issues ever been successful in the NFL? He was pretty inaccurate last season at Clemson and still seems to have the same issues. He is absolutely not ready to start IMO. I'm a Texans fan so I wanted to like this guy a lot but he's looking like a slightly more accurate black Tebow.... Tebow was a winner in college and clutch and all that shyt too. I hope I'm wrong brehs, but I just don't see it. CFB experts please change my mind.

I get that but I feel like it's inflated with all of the bubble screens and other easy throws they threw.

I'm cool with waiting however long, I just can't recall a top tier QB being inaccurate as Watson was last year at Clemson. Weird though cuz he was accurate as hell in '15.

just give him time, he needs to learn to put some more touch on his passes. Worst case he becomes an alex smith time player

Its tough to say. I think he'll be good, but he really does need to polish his footwork/mechanics so that he doesn't develop bad habits.

I can see him being like McNair if they are patient with him.

Last night Watson was going vs a defense. And while it's preseason the Texans play the Patriots in the regular season and you know ain't fixing to let the young rook get no mental advantages on him.

Cam Newton comes to mind.

Don't let them stat mislead yu he threw a ton of picks in college mostly from bad decisions. That can be coached, I felt he should have stayed a senior year but if he can red shirt this year he should be good, but in this day and age it's hard to keep a 1st round QB in the bench due to pressure from the fan base.

1 good year in what regard? Making the playoffs? He's had 3. Carrying untalented offenses with good offensive seasons? He's had 2 or 3
