The Cincinnati Bengals have signed Azusa Pacific running back Terrell Watson as a college free agent, according to several reports that has appears to have been confirmed via the Bengals beat writers:

From NFL.com:

STRENGTHS
Big bruiser. Has shattered just about every school record for his position, including the ones leftover from Christian Okoye's time at the school. Rushed for 63 touchdowns over last three seasons. Strength in lower body to rip through arm tackles. Nifty jump ­cut for a man his size, with adequate change-of-direction ability. Strong fourth-quarter runner. Useful out of backfield in screen game.

WEAKNESSES
Played against small defenders that lacked the starch to bring it to him. Predictable in that he likes to make his cutbacks to the right. Doesn't feature a second gear to pull away from defenders. Plays with high pad level and takes big shots because of it.
