30. Jameis Winston, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Jameis Winston has made quite a few headlines over the course of his NFL career, and many of them have been….not ideal, to put it mildly. Winston is already suspended for the first three games of the upcoming season for violating the league’s personal conduct policy. It’s for these reasons, and the fact that “Hard Knocks” didn’t show a single instance of Winston playing cornhole, that he lands near the bottom of our highly-scientific list.

While the Bucs quarterback has steadily improved in a variety of metrics during his first three seasons in the league, he still needs to show the consistency that will allow him to achieve future cornhole glory.

This isn’t to say that there is no hope left. Winston was coached in college by Jimbo Fisher, which sounds exactly like the name of a person who would invent a sport and choose to call it cornhole.

Regardless, Winston will need to prove himself worthy of his former number one overall draft selection and play catch-up following his suspension. If not, he may be off our list entirely by the start of the 2019 season.
