The potential Saints trade got the NFL world talking.
“I can’t speak for everyone, but if it were me, I’d rather just sign Jameis rather than trade a draft pick for a Jimmy G coming off shoulder surgery,” tweeted Saints podcaster Chris Rosvoglou. “Even if he wasn’t coming off surgery I’d say the same thing.”

“Jameis Winston stats before injury: 5-2 record, 15 TDs, 3 INTs. Feels like a no brainer to me on what they should do,” tweeted The Game Day NFL.
