Packers re-sign WR Christian Watson (4 years, $110.5 million): C- Grade
If someone told me that Chritian Watson would re-sign with the Packers, I wouldn’t have come anywhere close to this sort of compensation. In a shocking turn of events, Watson will earn $110.5 million over four seasons.
At the risk of getting yelled at by Watson’s crazed father again, this deal sucks. Watson has never topped 620 receiving yards in a single season, and he’s missed 20 games in four years. He also has a recent torn ACL, of course. Watson is very talented, so if he can find a way to remain on the field, he’ll finally produce like a No. 1 receiver. However, we’ve seen no evidence that he can do that over a long period of time.
