No one knew Tyron would become the NFL's best either. At the time though Watt was a better prospect than Tyron who was a projected LT from RT and was a bit undersized.

Bottom line was Dallas was desperate for OL help in any form so he had to be our pick.

Eh Watt was a big white boy DE from college. Not exactly the type of player most of us fall in love with.

The fifth-year option was put into place alongside the rookie wage scale when the CBA was renegotiated in 2011. Per the agreement, first-round picks have a fifth-year option built into the standard four-year rookie contract, and teams can exercise the option after the player's third season.

Still want to know the damn deadline.

Tomorrow is the deadline. May 3rd.

Watt was a guy with one year of starting experience after switching from TE, considered athletic but very raw by a lot of scouts.
