A starter at right guard and on the defensive line for Davenport Central, Trateris Watson Trateris Watson 6'4" | 315 lbs | DL/OL Davenport North | 2026 State IA ‘s size stands out, similarly to that of McClish. At 6’4″ and 315 pounds entering his senior season, the Davenport Central product is an imposing presence on the defensive line.

With his height, Watson could play a three-tech defensive tackle position, or plug holes on the defensive line and stop the run game as a one-tech or zero-tech DT. He’ll need to get more explosive and violent at the point of attack, but a college program should be able to bring that out of him. He’ll want to add some more mobility to his size, as well.

Watson is a player you don’t want to miss and likely won’t if you’re watching him play football. He is a large individual that contributes on both sides of the trench for the Wildcats. On defense, Watson delivered 16.0 tackles (13 solo, 4.5 TFL). He’s a space-eater in the middle of the line, one that can move and pursue, too. When watching his junior highlight video, we see the power and burst needed for success in the middle of the D-Line. Watson is a handful to block one-on-one. He keeps his head up and eyes on the target before disengaging and pouncing on the ball carrier. There aren’t any O-Line clips on the tape, but he lists right guard as his position. His skill set fits there.
