Quote:Physically, Cam is on a different level than any NFL QBs, Luck and Big Ben included.  Winston, on the other hand, is comparable to Blake Bortles physically and athletically.  I know he made a lot of rash decisions this year which is why the int number goes up, but you just can't deny that he gets the job done every saturday. 

 

To say that Winston would go top 15 without the off field problem is selling him short.  In fact, I strongly believe that if the college season is over at this moment and the draft is in a month, he would go top 5.  Jets, Titans, Bucs, and even Redskins -- heck, even the Rams should they decide to trade up -- are all desperate for someone new under center.  Even considering the NFL domestic issues and bad publicity, I just can't see a scenerio were any one of those team passes him. 

 

I'd still say he goes ahead of Mariota. 

 

He's made some pretty bad decisions on those INTs all year. Granted, he's been under pressure a lot thanks to that OL, but that will be weighted against him. That said, we all know what being big, strong, and mobile will do to the draft stock of a QB...just ask Blaine Gabbert.

 

If JW plays well in the playoffs, and finds a way to rehab his image in the off-season, then yes, I can see him being taken in the top 10 perhaps even before. But I'm not going to discount that some teams would sour on him based on both on and off-field performance this season.
