Seventh-round pick by Kansas City The Chiefs selected Watson in the seventh round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 243rd overall. Impact Watson (6-foot-2, 195 pounds) is an interesting Cover-3 type corner prospect, and one who looks like a good pick for the Chiefs this late. Like third-round pick and fellow rookie corner Joshua Williams, Watson is a big corner with standout athleticism and gives the Chiefs a trait match to Charvarius Ward, who left the Chiefs in free agency. Watson has long arms (32 and 1/4 inches) to jam receivers and elite leaping athleticism (38-inch vertical, 132-inch broad jump) to defend them above the rim.
