Fantasy Impact:

Watson will rejoin a Saints team in need of a reliable tight end. And although they made a valiant attempt to bring back Jimmy Graham, they ended up with Watson, who spent three seasons in New Orleans from 2013-2015, putting up a career-high 74-825-6 stat line in the latter year. Already familiar with Sean Payton's offense and Drew Brees, Watson could end up being the most productive tight end on the Saints roster in 2018 -- even if Coby Fleener is named the starter since he has been proven unreliable.
