I re-watched that draft a couple years back and it was hilarious watching guys swoon over John Lynch for that Thomas pick. One guy (maybe Mayock?) actually said "wait a minute - don't they need a QB?" but even he was shocked they didn't take Watson.
And had that team taken Watson, they wouldn't be here. Because they'd have extended him and they don't have CMC. They may not have Deebo. They almost certainly don't have Bosa because they don't go 4-12 in 2018 with Watson at QB.
