What are you calling a pro style offense ? Some teams in the NFL run spread offenses . I would think the opposite looking at the 3 playoff champions. You need a passing QB more then a running QB. Cardelle Jones and Coker are both passing pro style QBs who won playoff championship .Watson is a dual threat QB that can pass the ball and passes enough that he will be drafted high as a QB. Look at OSU and BAMA they both have one championship in the last 3 years and it's the only year they had a passing QB.

Watson was never a dual threat QB, he was a pro style QB coming out of high school, now granted he can run pretty good.
In addition, all the projections I've seen of him show him as a third to fourth rounder, with some even showing him as a fifth rounder. The knock on him is he never played QB in a pro style offense. Thus, he's has never taken snaps from under center. He also doesn't know how to handle a huddle.
The biggest concern about him though, although he didn't show it in the National Championship game, is he struggled for a large part of the season with his accuracy.
