He's an exciting player, but I wouldn't touch him in the top 10. He'll have moments that will prove me wrong, but I don't believe he's consistent enough to warrant a pick that high. I actually like his arrogance....he believes in himself.

The qb position in the draft is usually a joke. There are so many reaches at this position it's absurd. A great defense gets you in the playoffs. That should be the focus for these struggling franchises. Of all of the qbs in this draft though, Manziel is the biggest risk/reward type guy and the good will probably outweigh the bad. Who else would you take? Bortles? Carr? Bridgewater? At least Manziel is battle tested.

Could end up the best player in the draft or a total bust.


That's basically true about everyone.

I'd prefer for him to fall to the Cowboys.

As long as one of the TX teams has a crack at him, I'm happy.

Again, don't frick this up, Houston!
