It’s exciting to watch the number one pick of the draft begin his journey in the NFL. It becomes even more exciting when it is a quarterback, as he is front and center on every play, obviously. For the Buccaneers, we have a first row seat for just that development with Jameis Winston. First picks are expected to play, and play immediately. Winston did play, and played well. Here is a look:

But behind the numbers comes the interesting part. We talk all the time about the “eye test”. What did the player look like on the field? How did they develop throughout the season? That is what we are going to take a look at in the coming days and weeks.
