Dan Patrick: âJameis Winston and Cam Newton are currently on the outside looking in. If you had to take oneâŚ?â
Tony Dungy: âI think you take Jameis Winston because of the youth and the health right now. I love Cam, but I havenât really seen him at full speed in a year. Hopefully heâs over all the injuries, and if youâve got that youâve got some weaponry, but if I had to choose â especially in this environment when youâre not going to get a lot of [medical] information â I think Iâd take Jameis and try to work with that⌠You look at Jameisâ numbers and Peyton Manningâs numbers in those first five years and thereâs not a lot of difference.â (Full Interview Above)
