and he put up 10.5 sacks as a junior 6'5 243-lb OLB for the Badgers this year.

The big problem with him is that he looks like just as much of a douchebag as his brother is.

Ya I've seen a few badger games this year including a pregame visit to the badger locker room. Showed Watt sitting intensely at his locker while couple teammates joking around. Not sure how being intense makes a guy a douchebag. Watts issue to me is not douchebaggary but rather he's somewhat new to the OLB position having started his career in Madison as a TE. He's still a Jr. But should he declare for the draft I for one would definitely be interested in an intense, high effort pass rusher such as watt

If you're intense, cocky and outspoken like OBJ or Richard Sherman you have swagger.

If you're intense, cocky and outspoken like JJ Watt you're a douchebag. See the difference? You better just be a quiet ham and egger. Try hard guy.

try hard guy

lunch pail

high effort

etc.

Drama, remember, JJ Watt started as a TE as well I'm pretty sure. If he comes out this year, I say we go for it.

Watt is still learning the position as he was a TE before his transition to the defensive side of the ball. Wisconsin has done a good job of using his strengths so far. He gets a lot of 1 on 1 matchups with TEs and RBs and gets his sacks on pure effort alone. He's a better athlete than given credit for......he gave up a TD on a wheel route to Barkley last night but had good technique and position for a LB on Barkley.

Imagine what happens when he gets another season to play that spot, he could be a Clay Matthews type of edge rusher.

Keep an eye on Bosa's younger brother who is a true freshman. He is good now and just needs to get stronger and gain some more technique.

He did, indeed, start as a TE. He had very limited experience as an edge player when he was drafted.
