Cardinals' Darnell Dockett Tries to Recruit Ohio State QB Braxton Miller to FSU

With Jameis Winston turning pro, Florida State alumnus and current Arizona Cardinals defensive tackle Darnell Dockett is doing what he can to try to land a high-profile quarterback to lead the Seminoles.

On Wednesday, via ESPN.com, Winston declared for the 2015 NFL draft. The 2013 Heisman Trophy winner had two years of eligibility remaining but decided to chase his dream of playing in the NFL.

That announcement has the Seminoles looking for a new quarterback. Dockett has wasted no time in trying to recruit a Heisman candidate to his school.

Braxton Miller has missed the entire season with a shoulder injury. During Miller's time on the shelf, Ohio State has not missed a beat, thanks to its second- and third-string quarterbacks. J.T. Barrett put himself in the conversation for the 2014 Heisman Trophy with a record-setting season, and Cardale Jones has led the Buckeyes to a berth in the national championship game after taking over for the now-injured Barrett.

With Miller, Barrett and Jones all succeeding at quarterback for the Buckeyes, it brings up an interesting situation. Only one of them, realistically, can be on the field at a time. The other two could either stick around and serve as backups, or they could look at transferring.

If Miller, the oldest of the bunch, decides to go the transfer route, Dockett is ready to try to sell the dynamic quarterback on a move to Florida State.
