Drafting a legitimate franchise quarterback is the quickest way to turn around a moribund organization. The addition of a young, talented signal-caller with exceptional physical tools and a high football IQ gives a sagging franchise an opportunity to go from an also-ran to a contender in a matter of months. Look no further than the and , who both enjoyed such a rise after respectively snagging and in .Consequently, this spring, general managers and head coaches in need of a franchise quarterback are taking a long, hard look at Florida State's .Now, I know Winston's off-field i sues make the 2013 Heisman Trophy winner a "boom or bust" candidate to the outside world, but the overwhelming majority of NFL executives and scouts view the 6-foot-4, 231-pounder as one of the best quarterback prospects to enter the draft in years. Winston is a cla sic pocket pa ser with the arm talent, football IQ and confidence to handle the rigors of playing the position as a pro. He is a proven winner who piled up a 26-1 record -- and a national title -- as Florida State's starter. Most importantly, Winston is a clutch performer adept at stepping up his play with the game hanging in the balance.Looking at Winston's game on tape, I see a big, strong-armed pa ser capable of making every throw in the book. He excels on quick-rhythm heaves to the outside part of the field (deep outs and comebacks), but also is effective on anticipation to ses between the hashes (digs, deep cro sers and post routes) following five- and seven-step drops. Winston's ability to "throw receivers open" is unrivaled in this cla s; coaches will be excited to work with a fearle s pa ser who has a real feel for the timing throws that are staples in most NFL game plans. Thus, he enters the league fully prepared to play within a traditional dropback system that places a premium on precise throws into small windows.As a play-action pa ser, Winston displays solid footwork and ball skills, deftly executing fakes and routinely setting up well at the top of his drop. He shows the ability to turn his back to the defense on a play fake before quickly identifying his primary receiver in the route concept. This is a skill that is difficult for some young pa sers to master, but Winston's experience in Florida State's pro-style offense puts him ahead of the curve. Despite being an awkward athlete, Winston appears adept at movement-based pa ses (pre-programmed bootlegs and half-rollouts in either direction) on film. Now, this is different than throwing on the move in ad-lib scenarios, when he's off platform -- that's something he needs to work on, . Generally, though, he delivers pinpoint pa ses to his receivers within the strike zone, allowing them to pick up yardage on catch-and-run pa ses on the perimeter.Against the blitz, Winston shows outstanding courage and anticipation with rushers in his face. He throws accurate strikes with the pre sure bearing down on him, which is a testament to his courage under dure s. Winston doesn't flinch and finds a way to punish the defense for attacking him with five- and six-man pre sures (see: ).The biggest concern regarding Winston's game centers on his judgment. He to sed 18 interceptions in 2014 and a tendency to force the ball into traffic will result in a high number of turnovers at the next level. While his supporters will point out that Winston's interceptions last fall were partially due to a cast of inexperienced pa s catchers failing to properly run their routes, the fact that he has such a high total will require J.K. Dobbins Jersey a quarterback coach to work with him on his decision-making.Additionally, NFL executives and scouts must continue to work through his character profile to determine whether he is past his off-field i sues. Though Winston has admitted to bouts of immaturity during his time at Florida State, decision-makers must intensely investigate his previous actions to get a better feel for his trustworthine s going forward.Overall, Winston has all of the football attributes to develop into a -winning quarterback like , a popular NFL comp that is quite accurate in my eyes. Winston's a gifted pa ser with the arm talent, football IQ and charisma to blo som as the leader of an NFL team.

But you never know what's going to happen on draft day, and it's always worth exploring which teams truly fit a top prospect. Here are five nice matches:Tampa Bay Buccaneers (No. 1 overall pick)It is widely a sumed the will make Winston the new face of the franchise on April 30. Winston po se ses the swagger and confidence needed to orchestrate a dramatic turnaround in an organization that hasn't made the playoffs since the 2007 campaign. And he boasts the physical tools and football IQ to shine in a Dirk Koetter offense that places a premium on quick-rhythm throws and at-the-line adjustments by the signal-caller. Considering Winston's winning pedigree and extensive track record of clutch play, it'd make plenty of sense for the to set up the former Seminole as the director of an offense that features a trio of big-bodied pa s catchers (, and ) capable of dominating the NFC South with the right triggerman.Tenne see Titans (No. 2)The have failed to get it right at the quarterback position since unceremoniously dumping Steve McNair in 2006. The team has attempted to fill the void with guys like Vince Young, Kerry Collins and , but they all lacked the grit, charisma and playmaking ability to thrive as the centerpiece of the organization. Winston has the pedigree to help Tenne see get back on track -- after all, this guy won the first 26 games he started in Tallaha see. Most importantly, he po se ses the skills to excel in Ken Whisenhunt's attack, which places a premium on accuracy, judgment and big-play ability at the quarterback position. If the were able to land Winston on draft day, it would finally give the team a franchise quarterback with the ability to provide some much-needed gridiron excitement in Nashville.New York Jets (No. 6) has shown signs of progre s, but not enough to prevent the from considering Winston as a potential franchise quarterback. He has the swagger, poise and resiliency needed to handle the pre sure of playing under the bright lights on Broadway. In addition, Winston brings an infectious competitive spirit and a pro-ready game to an offense that's ready to take off with an impre sive 1-2 punch on the perimeter ( and ). If new head coach Todd Bowles and offensive coordinator Chan Gailey are looking for a charismatic leader with the physical tools to direct a high-octane offense, the should empty the buckets in an attempt to acquire Winston as the new leader of Gang Green.St. Louis Rams (No. 10)The only thing preventing the from seriously contending in the NFC is the lack of a bona fide franchise quarterback. While some would argue that is only a season removed from an MVP-like showing, the 26-year-old doesn't po se s the raw physical tools or charisma to take a team from good to great under his direction. Thus, Jeff Fisher would be wise to see if there's a way he could snag the top quarterback in the 2015 cla s to build around. Winston not only displays the confidence and enthusiasm to galvanize the locker room, but he is a true winner with a well-documented clutch gene. In a division that's widely regarded as the most competitive in the NFL, the presence of a fearle s gamer is nece sary for the to become the best in the West.New Orleans Saints (Nos. 13 and 31)There is no question that is one of the top quarterbacks in NFL history, but the perennial er is beginning to show signs of decline at his advanced age (36). Thus, the need to come up with a succe sion plan to ensure their relevance for the next decade. Winston would be an ideal replacement in New Orleans, based on his unflappable confidence, high football IQ and winning pedigree. He embraces the pre sure of winning at the highest level -- and the opportunity to sit behind Brees would allow him to learn the nuances of playing at an elite level on Sundays. In addition, Winston would be set up to play in a creative offense directed by one of the best play designers in football: Sean Payton.Follow Bucky Brooks on Twitter . Mike Ramsay Jersey
