With news that Jameis Winston is set to turn pro, Alex Parker of ESPN.com is reporting that the Redskins wouldn’t mind drafting the Heisman winner to replace another winner.
Not surprising but ESPN's Todd McShay just mentioned #Redskins (among others) as possible teams that could take Jameis Winston. Here we go!

Being serious for a minute, Jameis Winston is essentially the guy Jay Gruden wants RG3 to be. Winston and Griffin III aren’t similar in any fashion, are actually the total opposite. Winston is a killer between the Lines, and has a presence the Redskins would gravitate towards immediately.
Scot McCloughan, the Redskins new GM, will reportedly want to move on from RG3 and draft his own signal caller.
