Yeah he understands football and that's cool cause he will make millions, but I can see a shady agent hustling him.

Watching the combine yesterday, I thought he was heads and tails better than every other QB there, including Mariota. If his knowledge is competent, and he can cut out the off-field drama (not having substance issues helps), he will a great pro quarterback.

I think he may well turn out great.

That said, I think the people who express concerns about him are concerned with the wrong thing. Character? Meh. It may end up a problem.

BUT, if I had to say what I'd worry about with Winston it would be this. Does the dude plan to stay in fricking shape? I mean, um, dude is 21 and is already looking soft. Sure, he appears to have lost weight for the combine but, if a 21 year old is having that hard of a time avoiding looking 35, one has to worry about when he puts on a few more years.

Not saying it's a catastrophic worry, but, it's not meritless either.

I would take Winston #1 with no regrets.

If the sexual assault issue e3nds up being nothing, then I have no problem with him.

shite, I have yelled worse things than, "frick her right in the pussy," in a public place.

Stealing crab legs is not great, but it is not a huge red flag to me.

Are these the same scouts that recommended Ryan Leaf, Akili Smith and others?

Russell legitimately sounded like a retard. I remember watching the OSU/LSU BCSCG and they interviewed him and Troy Smith on the sideline together. Difference was night and day. Subtitles were needed to understand Russell.

I just don't get why people think luck is so smart and Winston is a moron. Dude is obviously a tard in social aspects of life. But he's obviously extremely smart in football. But because he's a big black goon there is "no chance" he's really smart.


I guess the message board guys know more that football scouts and executives. Would these guys be saying they are blown away as a giant troll? Doubtful



I'm not a Winston fan at all just don't get why people think they know how much he knows about football

As a general rule a graduate of Stanford is going to have a higher level of intelligence than a drop-out from FSU?

That's the most succinct statement to describe what's going on with him and the public. Couldn't have said it better.

I hope he is good, just to see how bent out of shape everyone gets.

Yes, and he is probably light years smarter than Jameis Winston as well.

Even a great QB needs the right situation. Great teams are great not because they have the best athletes or football players. Coaching, management, culture and other things play a huge role too. It's what everyone has to keep in mind when we're making blanket statements like, "He will be a bust".

Like I used to say with Ryan11, football smart but life stupid. Except with Jameis it's probably more life dumb. I think he can grow out of some of the things he does. Maybe not the rapiness though.
