Initially I was very much "here we go again " when I read this however when you think about it a 2 year contract would actually make a lot of sense dependent on how the cap numbers stack up. Leeds desperately lack leaders and if Watkins came in would expect him to be made club captain. As a club trained player he could be marquee only counting 50k to the cap. I supposed the issue is who currently is that club trained marquee and what their salary is on the cap. Probably Newman or Handley.
Watkins could definitely offer the same as Martin minus the goalkicking on a 2 year contract in that hes a running back row who can cover centre. Would say he as quick as both our centres as well. The key is if we have enough cap left for 2 props.
