Back to the quarterback talk. ESPN’s Josina Anderson reports that the Kansas City Chiefs have Clemson Tigers QB Deshaun Watson in for a visit today.
I'm told QB Deshaun Watson is with the #Chiefs today and will be with the #Browns tomorrow.

This is notable because the Chiefs get just 30 visits to their facility in Kansas City. (Update: Well, actually, it doesn’t say exactly he’s visiting KC. Maybe they’re meeting someplace else. I’m not sure) They're clearly showing interest in Watson but will he be available at 27? Many seem to believe he will be gone before that. Of note here as well is that the Chiefs have 10 picks in this draft. They have the ammo to move up a little.
Watson has some flaws - you don't want so many interceptions for one - but he rose to the occasion in the biggest games. In Kansas City a quarterback would be sitting for at least a year so there's no pressure right away.
The quarterback I've seen Watson compared to ... Alex Smith.
