Jerry Jones loves him some J.J. Watt; “Arguably the Best Player in the NFL”

This week the Dallas Cowboys will face JJ Watt and the Houston Texans. Watt has been super impressive this year, getting to the quarterback 15 times.  That is more than almost half the NFL, and he has one owner drooling over him. 

“We had him highly, highly evaluated,” owner and general manager Jerry Jones said Friday on 105.3 The Fan, adding that Watt was one of seven or eight players he personally interviewed extensively during pre-draft visits. “Certainly, we felt like we needed to address our offensive line, but let’s just put it like this. It doesn’t surprise me that he’s having the career that he’s having or a successful career.

“It surprises me, though, that he’s arguably the best player in the NFL. That’s surprising but understandable because of the passion that he has.”
