Jameis Winston Has Been Designated A Babysitter

[Mr KLC]

Hall of Fame linebacker Derrick Brooks, who played for Tampa Bay after a stellar career at Florida State, has said he plans to help mentor the latest Seminole-turned-Buccaneer.

Most recently, Brooks told former teammate Ian Beckles of WDAE radio that Brooks plans to regularly communicate with Winston.

“He’s going to meet with Jameis every day when [Jameis] comes back to Tampa,” Beckles said, via JoeBucsFan.com. “That’s never happened in the history of the NFL, where somebody takes their time to mold somebody, and Derrick said the same thing I’ve been saying the whole time, ‘Jameis Winston is used to success his whole career, which is cool. The second he fails, how is he doing to deal with it? And that’s going to be the most important thing.'”

He'll also tuck him in, sing him a lullaby, and burp him at night.

Winston not a bad kid

He will be fine

[Mr KLC]

it shows how much faith the Buccaneers have in his character. The kid has to have a continual shadow so the club can protect its investment.

Kid was mostly a product of a witch hunt. Imagine having a camera following one of you guys around when you were 18-20 every step of the way with ESPN exaggerating your every mistake. That's essentially what he had to live with. The girls rape story couldn't hold water. The crab legs was stupid, but who cares? Before the media vilified him, he went out of his way to help kids around town...but nobody cares about that.

They need to make sure he doesn't steal crab legs from Publix. Guy is entitled to free crab legs.

The Centaur would make a fantastic babysitter for Jameis.

whatever works!

[JAKEPEAVY21]

great babysitter/mentor..Brooks is a top notch guy from all accounts

[MoMoneyMoVaughn]

I heard the Chicken at Publix is very good.

[itchypickle]

Better option than having Warren Sapp come back to Tampa to do the job

not really sure what your talking about here, what was exaggerated?

Who is out of league first? Manziel or jameis?

Manziel already has one foot out the door, so he's got a pretty good head start.

[newguy]

Agree. Tampa bay has to put up with him longer. Better question may be:

Will either amass 20 total wins in their career??

[Roadtrip635]

Business opportunity, he'd get tons of free marketing

[daneblazer]

Winston is going to be a stud, much to everyone's chagrin

He won't be a bust, per se... but I don't see him being a top flight star, either (stud).

Way too reckless and error prone with the ball... wait til he sees NFL defenses, he was kinda an interception machine as it was in college.

[teaserpleaser]

Smart he's still just a kid and we all mature at different speeds

[Mr KLC]

In all honesty, if this works you could see more mentor like setups similar to this happening. Would Manziel had turned out different if he had a professional beloved by the public like Bernie Kosar working side by side with him everyday?

[nanderson1134]

Winston surely could become serviceable and make a career out of the QB position. if he gets his stuff together I don't see why he couldn't play well enough to get some wins.

[thereikid]

That is awesome D. Brooks gonna get him right! Its all about protecting that investment.

[JameisBrady]

as with any black QB/athlete in general, the usual obese and balding cacs on this site will put as much negative spin as they can to make themselves feel better of their dull and mundane lives.

I know you're a troll because nobody could possibly be so wrong so often at so many things

[thechaoz]

Oh do tell. Please name them as my Google is broken and not giving me results

Vick? Young? Pryor? Jmarc? Jackson? Newton? (insert jets qb), et al

A little help I'm kind of slow

[JameisBrady]
