He should be happy to get 20 million with no guarantee.

Winston needs a prove it deal if he wants to stay here. It also would be good for his career I think. Do a 2-3 prove it deal with with reliant upon performance bonus that allows the Bucs to build something around you and you can prove to the Bucs you are good. Then you cash in a few years and prove it for the team that drafted you number 1 overall. Otherwise get rid of him. We can’t be spending starter money on him when we still need to build a good team too. He’s not the guy who is going to put the team on his back so don’t pay him like it.

All I know is that Winston is good enough to win a Superbowl. Don’t get me wrong, no matter how optimistic you want to be he is not ever going to be a top five QB but when guys like Trent Dilfer win superbowls you know that a guy like Winston can. The turnovers suck but if you start over (again) you don’t know if you’re going to get a guy who is even capable of putting up 400 yards and 4 touchdowns in a single game. That part of his game is special.
I’d rather stick with what I know and try to build a decent defense and Oline/running game. At least we’d have a chance to succeed over the next few years.

Alternatives?
Drafting a QB is a crapshoot as we’ve seen first hand. I know a lot of people hate Winston but who do you replace him with? The team is either going to keep trying to win or move on From Arians. Arians didn’t come here to rebuild. If he has a plan for a QB he thinks is an upgrade I’m all for it. Short of that, I’m fine with signing Winston. It sounds like a lot of money but it’s the market rate. Just about any starting QB save Rookies is getting 20 mil a year these days.
Of course we still have to play out the year. Winston could still implode.

Bridgewater would not have survived the year and would have little value at the end of the year. He made the right call to wait behind Brees and luckily for him the injury gave him a chance to shine and increase his value on a stacked team.
Tennessee is probably the best spot for him if they want to invest in him long term. That offense and defense could play to his strengths better than Tampa’s current roster composition which is built like a fantasy team and not a real football team.

I dont give an F about grandpa Arians. Dude is done. Winston is done. Finito. I dont hate him. He sucks. Some of you are beyond stupid. The majority of fans are over winston. While the glazers suck as owners they would gave a tough time selling Winston to fans.
Face it…he sucks. One good year his RS freshman season. He’s been living off it ever since. Eating W’s. Gtfo.
No more Winston.Please wait… -
@Butters
You’re going to have to find a link to that. Miami before the season began went all in on Teddy and when they didn’t get him started the process of positioning themselves for the #1 pick. Signing Fitzpatrick, trading for Rosen(backup longterm) trading players for draft picks.
I agree though that Tennessee would be a better option. Arians likes a QB who drives the football down the field and that has never been Bridgewater’s game. He’s at his best when he has a run game to lean on and playmakers who can get the ball quickly and make plays on their own

How does Bridgewater fit Arians scheme?
As we all know, Arians runs a vertical, aggressive scheme (much like Koetter’s). Winston was 3rd in intended air yards last year and is 2nd this year.
Teddy Bridgwater is 2nd LAST (to Luke Faulk!) He’s 22nd in yards/attempt.
Bridgewater is a fit for Gruden, not Arians. I don’t care what Arians said publicly – he’d have to run a completely different offense than he has to this points.

Please wait… -
Any new deal for Winston (god I hope not) has to be incentive based to get him to starting QB $.
He is not good enough to overcome a team’s deficiencies in other areas, and has never consistently played at an elite level. Based on that you need cap space to address other areas of need on the team.
The going rate for starting QBs who’ve led their team to the playoffs, or shown upside and potential is when the big $ contracts should be happening. Winston isn’t in those categories.
I prefer the team just start over, but if they don’t, paying Winston +$20M a year is a massive mistake, unless it is performance incentives that get his comp that high. Anything other than that would be idiotic, which means they’ll probably sign him long term to a massive deal.

No player is good enough to overcome the deficiencies in other areas. On any team. That’s why the same team is almost literally in the Superbowl each year.

I disagree, but it is just an opinion. When a team decides they are going to pay Rodgers or Wilson +$30M/year, and commit that much of the cap to a single player, they are banking on that player being able to overcome the deficiencies they will have in other areas due to lack of available cap space. They are also banking on their ability to draft well, and get impact players on rookie contracts. Sadly, the Bucs current management isn’t very good at that.

That formula has been proven to be a failure. The 1 guy who’s been to the Superbowl 9 times over the last 18 years has never taken a huge chunk out of his teams salary cap. The wealth is spread out and as a result the talent gap from 1 to 53 is isn’t as huge as it is with the other 31 teams.
The truth is what makes Tom Brady’s job so easy is he doesn’t have to do as much as the Brees, Rodgers, Wilson’s of the world.

Pro football is as much a money game as it is a on the field performance game. If the Bucs commit 20 million a year to Winston, it severely limits the money that could go to other players. The Bucs would lose good players already on the team because the Bucs couldn’t fit their salary demands in under the salary cap. So it is not just how much Winston may be worth, but how signing him impacts the salary cap.
Please wait… -
What other players are you speaking about specifically that we’d be missing out on? I look at this Oline, which is the highest paid in the league. Damn sure don’t play like it. Love Evans but his salary was $20 million this year before getting restructured twice.
If paying Winston $20 million cripples a team then paying any QB more than that would certainly paralyze this team if you’re correct.

This was one of the big reasons why drafting ILB at 5 was such a huge problem; Salary savings for 5 years.
We’re paying a Rookie ILB 15th highest paid ILB money (for nowhere near top 15 production). We’re effectively losing money…or, bare minimum, losing the windfall of cap savings we should have had for that rookie deal.
If we would have drafted an Edge player at 5, we would have had that windfall of cap savings for the duration of that rookie deal, paying them somewhere around 27th highest paid Edge at the number for that draft position.

Winston has no market value. He will sign a 1-year prove it deal with a team like Tennessee, Chicago, or Cincinnati. It will be a 1-year $12M deal with incentives and a team option. After he loses out on the starting job, he’ll be a back up somewhere for about 2 years, then out of the league.

Sadly, this is true. Winston and his agent won’t let him take a lot less money to be a backup for 2 years learning. They will want a starting opportunity with starting pay. And some team, probably pretty bad team, will give it to him and he will flash but repeat his ultimate failure there too.

The $$ will probably be a bit richer due to salary inflation over the last 5 years so maybe a 3/50 or 3/60 that is really just a 1 year 17-20m deal. I don’t think a team will want to give him a straight up one year deal because they will want to hold on to him a bit longer if it turned out good, but they won’t guarantee that money for fear of him imploding.

I know that Tom Brady went to two Super Bowls after age 40, winning one. You’re acting like the national Buccaneer hating media from back in the day. Remember when the Bucs couldn’t win in cold temps? You’d always hear, “Bucs have never won when the kick off temp was 46 degrees.” Then they’d win, and the number changes. It would keep moving down and down and down. You’re doing the same thing. Just because it never happened, it doesn’t mean that it can’t be done.
I think this is a perfect scenario. Bring in a great QB, who’s still a top 10 player, at a reasonable price, to take spearhead the most talented offense in the NFL. Add him to a team that has an improving defense with a lot of upside, and you have a team that can compete. Will they win a Super Bowl? Maybe. Maybe not. But I do know that the possibilities exists and is legitimate. Even Vegas agrees, as the Bucs are a top 5 team in odds to win the Super Bowl this year. They have the Bucs at 9.5 wins, with only 5 teams higher than them.
On top of all of that, there’s no salary cap hell this contract presents. It’s 2 years and money the Bucs had/have. After this season, the Bucs can move on from other higher paid players. Barrett and Godwin can still get new deals. Suh can be replaced after the season. So can Jensen. Basically, a relocation of money without too much extra expense, if any.
Again, what to you would have been a better route? I mean, I think everyone here is in agreement that every QB I listed previously, including Winston, has a lower ceiling than Brady. What direction would you have gone in, where you think that the upside would higher and cheaper, as well as long term possibilities?

That’s your standard and only your standard.
Tampa avoided being stuck in a vicious cycle of waiting for Winston to come around in what could have been a guaranteed 5 or 6-year contract. That 5 or 6-year contract would prevent the Bucs from actually drafting a new QB into the future. With Brady, we know we’re going to draft a QB into the future, unless we continue this FA QB route.
The next QB just needed to be better than Winston.
-
Winston: 33 TDs, 30 INTs, 7 pick-6s
Brady: 28 TDs, 8 INTs, 1 pick-6Brady is vastly superior to Winston. That alone makes the Bucs winners. We are no longer waiting for Winston to turn the corner. Winston never made the playoffs. So why is the Super Bowl the new standard when we never made the playoffs at all under Winston?
Don’t worry, I know you don’t possess a direct, competent response to this because it can’t be refuted. LoL

How many times do we need to cover this? Winston is a better option in Arian’s offense. Bridgwater is many years younger and has a stronger arm than Brady right now. Dalton would have been a great game manager QB for a defensive lead team. Cam Newton is a better option than Brady. Derek Carr could have been had for cheap. Small ball QBs are easy to find. All you have to do is not fall in love with the GOAT at the tail end of his career. Tampa is always going to out Tampa itself.

LOL @ Winston

Lol so happy we signed Brady over Winston. If we signed Winston to a long term deal after the disaster of a finish he had I would have seriously questioned this team. They went out and got the best of all time and some people are complaining. Some people are never satisfied and its best that once you realize those are like that to not waste your time.
The bucs always make stupid decisions but signing the best of all time is not one of them. If we were able to sign Brady and we all knew that but we went out and signed one of those other crap players instead that is actually what usually happens to the bucs.
We are never the team that signs the best player available. The agenda is obvious. Someone is so upset that his team didn’t sign his precious Winston and now he has to let everyone know daily about it. Quit whining…

Exactly. Any deal, even 1 year, with Winston would have only set this team back.

In fact, Winston was the best option in an Arians’ offense to create and be the President of the first ever 30/30 club! And Winston also added an extra threshold to that club, you must also have thrown a minimum of 7 pick-6’s!
Alas, we must all come to console ourselves that Winston could not create yet another club under Arians’ offense as the Bucs decided to become a more efficient offense than being the best deficient offense in the league.
Throw a lighter up as we can never reproduce or produce worse than the 33/30 with 7 pick-6’s ever again. ::: sniffle, sniffle :::

Winston is a better option in Arian’s offense.
Yet, there were 32 teams who didn’t view him as a starter.
Weird…

The minute you view football as a one man game and not a complex orchestration of coaches and multiple players, you should just go grab your casual card and jump the fuck off of the board. Any counter-argument to this should be viewed as a feminine strawman.
