Christian Watson was one of the most elite receivers to take part in the recently concluded NFL draft and the Packers had been targetting him since a long time. They have trusted Watson and like him for his athletic traits.
“This is what I’ve dreamed of doing all my life,” Watson said.” I’m finally getting able to come out here and do it and get away from all the pre draft stuff and get in the books and start working. I’m really excited.”
“You’re open every single play regardless of who is on you – Aaron’s able to put it anywhere,” said Watson. “Regardless of what you’re doing, you’re going to be open. You just gotta make a play when he puts his trust in you.”
Christian Watson acknowledged that he needs to earn a starting spot in the Packers team and talked about it doesn’t matter if he was selected in the first or seventh round – he will need to work hard for it.
“I heard it today from coach that nothing’s given, everything is earned,” Watson said. “Regardless if I was drafted number one overall or (in the) seventh round, I’m going to have to earn the spot that I want day in and day out.”
