Have to agree on a contract with Winston first. If they do, I'm looking forward to an open QB competition in camp.

Is he smart enough like a Drew Brees to look off DBs and LBs? Did he learn enough in his short year under Brees and SP to become the QB we all hope he can be? Is he wiling to take a cap friendly contract for the opportunity with the Saints? Will other teams offer more $ than the Saints are willing to part with? My guess on the latter is likely not. Those potential teams haven't spent the last year evaluating him up close like the Saints. Are the coaches that left the Saints for other locales considering Jameis as a QB? Should the Saints draft a QB? Methinks a resounding yes! Which one? We have a thread already for what's fresh incoming meat. (The Deep QB Draft)![]()
I always thought Jameis was a better talent than Scam Newton. And Scam is on his way out of the league, if not already. I still don't understand how Scam got an MVP and Brees didn't even sniff one even though he deserved it multiple times. Tom Brady made Bruce Arians look good this year. That, and that vaunted press defense that all of sudden gets no flags. The real test of his coaching would have been keeping Jameis and see what a year two would've looked like. Historically under Bruce Arians, new to Bruce Arians QBs have had poor turnover ratios, only to rebound to respectable to above average. Jameis never got the chance for year two. One thing for sure, if we do sign him and he does indeed grow into a top tier QB, can you imagine the Bucs fans reactions when Brady retires next year? This will be a very interesting QB battle this year, no matter what. Remember, we were 8-1 the last two years sans an injured Drew Brees. | |

Re: Sean Payton wants to see Jameis Winston “competing to be that guy”
Nope. Not wrong. I said if anyone else thought he was worthy we couldn't sign him. Obviously nobody else wanted him. We signed him for WAY below market value for a lowest end starter. Still only three wrongs ever, Dude. Eons away from matching your growing total. He's dirt cheap and still needs to earn a start and I'll still not be wrong if he does. I hope he does pan out.

Hardly a distinction for Wilson, the same thing can be said for each and every player we have resigned or will sign this season outside of draft picks.
