We’re roughly two months from the 2015 NFL Draft, but a big piece of the puzzle could fall into place this week.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Florida State quarterback Jameis Winston is in Tampa Bay today as part of a meeting with Buccaneers officials.
He’ll spend plenty of time with ownership while there, in an effort to convince them he’s worth the risk.
Winston has already invited all the investigation any team wants to do, and Bucs coach Lovie Smith signed off on the character questions at the Scouting Combine.
Now Winston has to convince the guys who sign the checks, and this week is his chance.
UPDATE 10:49 a.m. ET: Bucs officials tell PFT it’s a one-day visit, rather than a longer one as Schefter previously reported.
