This is the current net worth of Vince Young.  Young, the No. 3 overall pick out of Texas, agreed to afive-year deal, with an option for a sixth, with $25.7 million guaranteed and an overall value that could reach $58 million with option and roster bonuses and salary.  Young led the University of Texas to a National Championship, played in a pro style offense, and went 30-2 in three seasons with the Longhorns.  Was brought in by the Tennessee Titans to turn the franchise around...and failed.  But it was the organization who failed him.Fast forward to 2015 and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have done the same with Jameis Winston.  His contract, a four-year, $23.35 million deal that includes a $16.7 million signing bonus, was not nearly as good as Young's 9 years ago.  Yet here we are with another franchise bringing in an even younger quarterback, that played in a weak conference, and from a pro style offense.  I hope he has better financial advise than Young did...He's certainly going to need it.Marcus Mariotta Looks like a Hall of Famer out there in the 1st half.  Based upon today's game, the Buccaneers picked WRONG AGAIN, and choose the weaker quarterback...not that this is something new for the Bucs.  Mariotta was more seasoned, more athletic, and better prepared for the NFL.  Good luck Winston...please save some money.
