You think Fisher would have taken Watkins if he knew Martin would have been there at 13? very interesting question because I think the plan was to get one of the top 4 OT's for sure. I think there were many rumors of the OTs all going quickly (see Mayocks mock for eg) and I think he didn't want to gamble, or have to trade up. Just my two cents- I base this on the reports of how much they loved Watkins (obviously they loved Robinson too) and the fact we tried to trade up for Martin- so makes you wonder if he knew Martin would have been there, what would the 2 pick would have been? hmmmm
that said, LOVE our top 2 picks- cant argue it- and it is pretty clear what we will be doing this year. Props to Memphis - who I have been battling so to speak on two sites for months now- and he was correct imo on the direction of the team. I have to give credit when it is due. Yes I am disappointed in not getting a player like Watkins, but we may have the nastiest D in the NFL- surely the best front 4.
