Agreed. Winston, like EJ, was always going to be a project, IMO. He had WAY too many games where he seemed to get in a zone (or out of the zone) and would just toss weak INTs. Mariota has always been rock solid. I could never understand this being a question, if a team wanted to draft a QB for NOW.
I never right off a player based on his first game, first year or ever first few years. Players can develop.
