Can't help but question Hoomanuwanui and Watson's health right now...

Watson could just be a case of age
Keep it all light and more flexibility based than snything else. Could see him playing sparingly over the first half of the season and get used late when everything's up for grabs. Really do think thats a position of need next year but with no 1st and probably a late second could be a FA priority

Watson is a vet who knows our system. They could just be resting him to minimize risk. He doesn’t need reps.

It's a long season, at his age, can we count on him week-in, week-out?

Part of me believes we'd be better going with the youth, allow our great coaching work its magic than to rely on a TE who turns 38yo this season...
