QB Jameis Winston, NYG (6 Viewers)

I went into a Publix for the first time, today.  They didn't have crab legs.

I'm thinking they didn't want to add locks to the refridgerators (like for razor blades), so they just stopped carrying them altogether?

Was it in Tampa Bay?I heard because Jameis is so shellfish they quit carrying them there.

Actually, just outside Tampa.  From which one did he actually steal the goods?  I may have been at the Name is crime scene (the amusing one, at least).

Tallahassee. Said manager said it was ok. Things that make you go hmmm,but hey I did some dishonest stuff when I was a kid too.

 
Pretty psyched for Winston this year with a full slate of weapons and one year under his belt. He seems like he's "getting" it.

 
coach Dirk Koetter said he wants Jameis Winston to "test the boundaries" of the offense.
 
"Jameis is a really smart guy," said Koetter. "It’s just (that) we chose as coaches not to put him in too many positions that we did not think he was ready for, and, yes, we have … even as the season went on last year … we gave him more and more." Winston was much better when allowed to play a limited role as a rookie, but Koetter has been clear about his intention to put more on Winston's plate in year two. Even with Winston taking more command, the offense should still lean on the backfield combo of Doug Martin and Charles Sims.

The training wheels are completely off for Jameis this year. I think he's going to light the NFL up with all the weapons Tampa's offense has.  

He's going to go bonkers. 

 
I've never been his biggest fan, but the guy had an excellent rookie season and the arrow is certainly pointing up. A year of experience. Great weapons. He's laying off the donut diet. And he seems to have matured a bit. Where things stand now I'm buying all day

couldn't agree more. He's a great guy to be part of a QBBC

I'm really liking Winstons dynasty prospects. He's going to be a good one

Dynasty prospects?   How about this year?  I'm really starting to believe that Winston and stafford will be the late round qbs that will propel their owners to championships this season.  A-la cam last year.

Winston might be, but he won't face defenses like Cleveland every week. As a matter of fact, he projects to have about the toughest QB SoS in the league. Staff has the easiest, so I would lean Stafford.

Is that SoS based off of 2015 records or fantasy points allowed to QBs? Either way, no way I'd make any decisions based on that. Pre-season SoS predictions aren't worth the pixels they're printed on.

Its points allowed to QB. I wouldn't solely base my decisions on it, but to me it's a factor when dealing with extremes. If you like Winston a lot more than Staff, than screw SoS. If you have Staff and Winston close, then you might want to account for it.

I'm on board.  Got him last night.  First week vs a weak Atl defense he's gonna start hot

It is debatable how predictive last year's SoS is, but Atlanta was a bad defense for QBs in fantasy last year. Median defense gave up 327 to QBs last year. Atlanta gave up 282. We can't say Atlanta is a tough match-up, but we definitely can't say it's a good match-up.

Well I think it's going to be a high scoring game and Atlanta has no pass rush. Winston is going to eat

His schedule appears tough but can be mitigated a bit with his playoff schedule (NO, Dal, No) and his second game against Carolina is week 17 when FF is over.

with a decent backup for games against Sea and Den I think he is a perfect streaming QB this year.

 
Surprised he isn't getting more "sleeper" love after what was a very good rookie season.  One of only a handful of QBs that have passed for 4K in the history of the league.  He certainly has 4600/36TD upside IMHO.

Targeting him in most drafts as a QB2...ADP is very nice.

He'll probably always be undervalued. The negative stigma around him causes people to ignore the obvious football acumen. 

He looked utterly fantastic last night. I was watching the game with my brother in law who is an avid Jameis hater. BIL can't come to terms with it. Won't admit he's a budding star. Refuses to draft him in fantasy. It's pretty funny. 

I wouldn't worry about the schedule as much as the health of guys like VJAX and ASJ. If Vincent, who looked rather spry last night as well, stays healthy Jameis will have a nice year.

I'm with you on this one. Outside of a couple obvious teams each year, SoS is always a joke until about week 5

Schedule much tougher this year, that being said he should put up decent numbers but I expect a lot of turnovers

I have a dopey friend who kept saying Evans bailed him out :lmao:

 
Fwiw

18 mos ago, I was not a believer

today I just drafted him as my qb2 and as  the first backup QB taken

Grabbed him and Stafford in rounds 11 and 12 of my redraft on Sunday. 

Think they will make a tremendous pair to use all season, but I can envisage a few frustrating weeks where I'll no doubt play the wrong one.
