Funny thing is with his on field skill set and leadership skills he will probably lead them to the playoffs year one. He needs to go to a place like New England where he would have to sit behind a great QB. That would give him lots of time to get in trouble. If he is playing he will probably keep his nose clean.
New England didn't exactly help Evan Hernandez. ;)

The most interesting thing about this going forward will be how Jimbo Fisher handles his players at FSU. He may end up losing all control and throwing his career away for the way he handled Winston.
Or, right before his lack of discipline completely undermines the team, he could retire to be with his family for a year, then use his standing as a national champ coach to land another good job.

If I'm a GM and I have the opportunity to take Winston or Cooper at #2, I take Cooper, no question. Amari is so much more mature and has a 15+ year career ahead of him. I know Jameis is talented and has strong leadership qualities, but I just don't see him beating out Cooper's potential NFL impact long-term.

true, but some teams wont need a WR. the top 2 teams at the top of the draft right now need QB's. Jax took Bortles last year and has some young WR's. Oakland needs a WR at 4. I'd be shocked if they didnt take Cooper.

FWIW kiper and mcshay have amari at 6 because of the defensive needs of jax and oakland, but Kiper has been wrong more times than not.

Let's see what happens without a large university and a city police force covering/cleaning up his screwups. Hope I am wrong simply because we need more taxpaying citizens than we do legal gymnasts, but I wouldn't count on this guy becoming one of the solid citizens.
