This.
What I don't get is how is this guy going to be taken as the 1st pick? Especially when you factor in all of the off-field shit. You're telling me a 25 TD 18 INT QB is a no-brainer #1 pick? He spent all year eeking it out over inferior teams, and got shit-stomped against Oregon. Blake Sims had better stats and a better rating this year, and he is going to be lucky if he makes it onto a practice squad. I just think that Winston is going to be a bust, and all of the red flags are already there.
I called Jamarcus Russell the day he was drafted. Bust.
I also missed on Peyton. I really thought the kid was more his sad sack dad and would never do what he's done.
Not ready to put Jabooboo in the same bust-level strata as Jamarcus, but if you ask me he's not far off.
In 08, Jamarcus put up 28 TDs against just 8 picks. Threw for 3129 yards.
In 07 Jamarcus had 15 TDs, 9 picks and 2400 yards.
As a freshman Jabooboo had 40 TDs, 10 interceptions and 4000 yards.
This year, 25 TD, 18 picks, 3900 yards.
Part of that is the style of play. LSU was a running team. FSU passes it more. In terms of maturity, though? Jamarcus was miles ahead of Jabooboo. They both have the same entitled mentality, though.
Without Fisher to babysit the dumbass night and day, I think it goes bad for Winston and he ends up back in Hueytown as a black Uncle Rico.
