I am seriously asking because other than trading down why would L&L being blowing smoke?1. It's highly doubtful the Bucs want to trade down with a clear need for a QB2. Lovie unprovoked starts off the combine and declares that so far nothing they have found takes Winston takes him off their draft board and can see him as the face of the franchise. And then goes on to praise his leadership and throwing abilities as a QB3. Licht sits down with Peter King and while discussing Mariota, changes the subject to Winston and pulls out a play from his phone, again praising Winston. And in another interview also mentions face of the franchise.4. All the talk we have seen from L&L on Mariota says he is a great kid and athlete but always stops short of saying he could be the face of the franchise.5. An overwhelming amount of chatter from behind closed doors at the combine all point to the Bucs drafting Winston.I could go on but the point is everything heavily points to Winston, yet the Mariota supporters say it's just Lovie and Licht blowing smoke and point to the Greg Bedard article on MMQB, Charles Davis (who admitted on Path to the Draft he could switch), Bill Polian on ESPN, Pat Kirwan on Sirus (who just changed to Winston) and Chris Landry who buries his info behind a pay wall.My question is why are they right and everyone else is wrong?
