< Back Xavier Watts Notre Dame HT: 5110 WT: 198 YR: SR POS: S OVR RK 41 POS RK CEILING POTENTIAL 3 High-End Starter Potential OVR RK PLAYSTYLE & SCHEME FIT Xavier Watts is a high-IQ, ball-hawking safety with elite anticipation, play recognition, and closing burst. His background as a WR translates into elite ball skills, making him one of the best playmakers in this class.

He boasts a prototype NFL frame, elite speed-to-power conversion, and an ability to collapse the pocket with force.
