“Steve Mariucci put Jameis Winston on the [chalk] board as part of our coverage yesterday and Mariucci says that in the many years that he has been doing that for our coverage at the combine, that’s the most astute X & Os guy he’s ever put on the board turned out to be Jameis Winston. He was not only answering the questions that Steve was throwing, but anticipating what the question would lead to next and answering the question before Steve even asks it.” <--- This will be on NFN tonight if you are interested.

Excerpts from the above mentioned article "The results were, well, allow me to let one team's personnel man who was in the room with Winston explain.
"I think he's probably the smartest player I've ever interviewed," he told me.
Ever?
"Ever," he responded. "Football IQ as good as I've ever seen."
One scout described how Winston was so impressive with his knowledge of X's and O's that "there was a moment where we kind of looked at each other and said, 'Oh, okay, wow.'"
Apparently Scouts and team personnel's are comparing him to Peyton Manning after all the private interviews, instead of being "exposed" like so many people thought.
In addition, if anyone watched the combine drill, he threw the ball very well too.
