MaxPreps 2012 Junior All-American Football Team

DeShaun Watson is the all-time leading passer in the state of Georgia. And he hasn't even begun his senior season yet.

The 6-foot-2, 180-pound junior completed 305 of 435 passes for 4,024 yards and 50 touchdowns while rushing 221 times for 1,441 yards and 24 scores. In three seasons, Watson has throw for 9,363 yards and 108 touchdowns.

Watson's performance cannot be completely understood looking only at his numbers. His most important achievement was helping lead Gainesville to the program's first state title in a 49-13 victory over Ware County.

Committed to Clemson, he narrowly edged New Jersey sensation Jabrill Peppers and North Carolina quarterback Will Grier for National Junior of the Year honors.
