Winston > Cutler
Winston is the #1 QB in the draft, period. The QB guru has spoken. Emery was there first and foremost to watch Winston live at practice. Anyone who thinks differently is a rere.
Yeah....but I prefer Mariotta for the way the NFL game is going. I'll take the mobility because its impossible to guard WR's much longer than 2 seconds under new rules. Players that can buy time with their feet have higher potential right now, and things are coming easier. Winston has a great arm, I forces that ball in there and in college he appears unstoppable....but he will need intelligence at the next level, and I don't know if he has both talent and intelligence. I would stay away until the second round personally and I think most NFL GM's will as well. he could be the best player that goes undrafted ever. its possible...if he is even allowed in the draft.
I would take Mariotta 100 times out of 100 and not question myself. But Winston is my #2 QB if I throw out his personality, intelligence, and fear of next level interceptions.
Just like when Emery scouted Sutton, and found Carey, Long, and Ross....Emery is just a scout and likes being there. He will be thourough to a fault and check out everyone, to suggest Emery who clearly would not waste his time focused singularly on one player, is looking through binoculars to one point on the field is false.
