JAMEIS WINSTON, UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>2019: 7-9 as a starter, 60.7 completion percentage, 5,109 yards, 33 touchdowns, 30 interceptions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Winston ended the 2019 season with the inglorious distinction of being the first quarterback in NFL history to throw 30 touchdowns and 30 interceptions in the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was an insane meltdown. There is no sane justification for the Bucs to bring him back, no matter how many writers want to stab their fingers into keyboards and play pretend. Does that mean Winston is done as an NFL QB? No, and it shouldn\u2019t. I\u2019ve always felt the league gives up on young signal-callers way too soon and the Bucs have been worse than anyone at doing just that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But he needs to be done in Tampa. No question. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where he should end up: <strong>Washington Redskins<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Redskins have Dwayne Haskins and are hoping he\u2019s the answer. But they can\u2019t take any chances and with a first-round talent like Winston as a back up, they don\u2019t have to. There\u2019s no reason at a reasonable price not to bring him in and let him work a year under Ron Rivera and his offensive coaches. Winston needs to actively look for a situation like that in free agency, whether it be Rivera or Matt LaFleaur in Green Bay or Sean Payton in New Orleans. He needs to go the Teddy Bridgewater route and get rebuilt from the ground up. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>7. CASE KEENUM, UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>2019: 1-7 as a starter, 64.8 completion percentage, 1,707 yards, 11 touchdowns, five interceptions<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keenum has not only maxed out his career in the NFL since signing with the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Houston in 2012, but also his bank account. The dude has pocketed $32.681 million in his eight-year career and there\u2019s no reason to think for a second he won\u2019t land on a roster in 2020. In fact, he should. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He\u2019s not a franchise quarterback and he\u2019s not a solid starter. He\u2019s a guy that can win games coming off the bench and keep your season from going down the toilet while your real quarterback is recovering from a non season-ending injury. You could definitely do worse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where he should end up: <strong>Chicago Bears<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Bears need somebody to help Mitchell Trubisky in the quarterback room and push him in his performance on the field. That\u2019s been Keenum\u2019s whole game since he first entered the league. If Trubisky stumbles, there\u2019s a chance Keenum could save the Bears\u2019 season. If Trubisky doesn\u2019t, Keenum\u2019s another coach, helping the young guy out in film sessions, in meetings and on the sidelines. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>8. BLAINE GABBERT, UNRESTRICTED FREE AGENT<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Did not record a stat<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gabbert finished out the 2019 season on the Tampa Bay injured reserve list after not recording a single stat. The previous year, with the Tennessee Titans, he went 2-1, completing 60.4 percent of his passes with four touchdowns and four interceptions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gabster has made his career as a back up for the most part after getting picked No. 10 overall in the 2011 draft by the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was supposed to be the \u201cNext Matt Ryan\u201d so be wary when draft guys start throwing that analogy out. There\u2019s a lot of \u201cnext Matt Ryans\u201d out there and most of them are currently mastering Words With Friends on their Microsoft Surface tablets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Still, Gabbert\u2019s decent off the bench and not been horrid in his last few NFL starts. You know what you\u2019re going to get with him and it\u2019s not a winning record if he has to play more than a handful of games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Where he should end up: Philadelphia Eagles<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carson Wentz can\u2019t stay healthy and Philly has to keep a solid investment in at back up quarterback. Is Gabbert the best option here? No. Is he the most realistic with the Eagles\u2019 salary cap? Yes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re going to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/nfl\/10-best-quarterbacks-hitting-the-market-this-offseason-part-5\/\">talk about you-know-who in Part 5<\/a> so get ready.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/nfl\/10-best-quarterbacks-hitting-the-market-this-offseason-part-1\/\">10 BEST QUARTERBACKS HITTING THE MARKET THIS OFFSEASON PART 1<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/nfl\/10-best-quarterbacks-hitting-the-market-this-offseason-part-2\/\"><strong>10 BEST QUARTERBACKS HITTING THE MARKET THIS OFFSEASON PART 2<\/strong><\/a><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/nfl\/10-best-quarterbacks-hitting-the-market-this-offseason-part-3\/\">10 BEST QUARTERBACKS HITTING THE MARKET THIS OFFSEASON PART 3<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/nfl\/10-best-quarterbacks-hitting-the-market-this-offseason-part-5\/\">10 BEST QUARTERBACKS HITTING THE MARKET THIS OFFSEASON PART 5<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Get the latest NFL football odds and information&#8211;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/betonline_ag\">follow BetOnline.ag on Twitter<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/betonline_ag\/\">BetOnline.ag on Instagram<\/a>&#8211;Follow for the latest odds, stats and information!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BY ADAM GREENE In the famous Robert Burns poem \u201cTo a Mouse,\u201d the poet coined the term \u201cThe best laid&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":8948,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[129],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8947","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nfl"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8947","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8947"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8947\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8959,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8947\/revisions\/8959"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8948"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8947"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8947"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8947"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
