Donny
Mooresat down with CBS Sports and answered questions about Blake Bortles being the top ranked QB and Johnny Manziel not being in the top ten. Here is what he had to say about Sammy Watkins…
"CBS: Sammy Watkins is stout at 80. If I recall correctly that tops Julio Jones Madden 12 rating and is equal to A.J. Green‘s rating. Do you think Watkins and Mike Evans (an impressive 78) stack up favorably with Jones and Green?DM: Sammy Watkins reminds us a lot of Percy Harvin, great speed, great moves after the catch, and top notch hands/playmaking ability. Mike Evans is a bit slower but he is a mini-TE lining up outside at 6’5”, 230 lbs. We don’t have either Watkins or Evans grading out as high overall in comparison to Julio Jones/A.J. Green of the 2011 Draft.CBS: What sort of SPD rating is Watkins looking at?DM: Sammy is sitting pretty with 93 SPD/95ACC/95 AGI…To go along with 88 Catch rating, watch out AFC East cornerbacks!– CBS Sports"
