Totally disagree. This guy living in the Big Easy? What could possibly go wrong**Quote:

I doubt Sean will be able to explain that to Jamies. ****Quote:

Maybe this is the wake up call he needs. He will get to watch one of the best (brees), and get taught by one of the best (Payton). If he's still immature, cut bait. This is no riskQuote:

Winston actually has extremely small hands and that is a major reason for his issues with accuracy.
Yes, the wildness doesn't help, but from an evaluation standpoint, the small hands are reason. Good luck fixing that.
So what's your opinion on burrow? Burrow at 9". Winston at 9.375". I think hand size is certainly relevant, but not an end all/be allQuote:

- When I watch Winston play: 2 things are clear - The ball pops out of his hand & he's got great arm strength, but the ball also sails him consistently & that's a pretty true sign of small hands.
Perhaps you're right. I trust Sean Payton more than you though on qbs. If Sean likes him, good enough for meQuote:

Payton and Brees have always liked him. Winston spent his 1st couple of offseasons working with Brees.Quote:

Obviously the ints are a problem, but he was under constant pressure and he's a back up. Laughing at the saints for signing Winston as a backup, yeah right
They said the same when The Saints signed Teddy Bridgewater to the big contract a few years ago. This is a can't hurt signing and all they have to do is keep him out of the Quarter.Quote:

Who is they? Bridgewater is/was nowhere near the interception machine that Winston is.Quote:
