Buy or sell on a big performance by wide receiver Justin Watson, who caught a 41-yard touchdown pass and one other ball as he passed Skyy Moore on the depth chart. It's not a surprise that he played well with Patrick Mahomes during training camp. He was most effective in the red zone, where he used his size to his advantage. As long as he's the fourth wide receiver, he should get a lot of time on the field.
