Am I crazy in thinking Manziel would be an awful #1 pick?

I really don't think he's going to do well in the NFL. The speed and power is at a different level than he's used to. If he tries to run the ball, being the little white dude he is, he's going to get killed.

If you're crazy then I'm right there with you.

I just don't see him being a pro QB even with the increased adoption of the spread.

Nope, he would be an awful #1 pick

And quite frankly, i seriously doubt he will go anywhere near that high. He isnt even a first round guy in my opinion. His mechanics are terrible. he carries the ball like a loaf of bread. His passes are consistenly into double and triple covered receivers and most of his "big" pass plays are hail marys.

Jacoby doesn't really play that much for the Raiders

They may cut him loose. they see him as injury prone.

They like him he just can't stay healthy. He had a few snaps this year. I don't see clowney going #1 the Texans have to to get nuk a QB and manziel I think is awful. They need to go with what's his name from ucf or Bridgewater. Panthers need a stout running back.

I didn't have a whole lot of respect for Mel Kiper before this but to see he has Manziel going #1 is a joke! Now I have no respect for the guy.

Panthers clearly need a couple of WRs and some

DBs, but there's no way they can trade up from 28th to top 5 without giving up multiple high picks in future drafts.

No way in the world they trade for Sammy

I would be real happy with Benjamin though. Sammy is as sure of a legit impact player in this draft IMO.

I would love to see Benjamin or Matthews in the 1st

Then Martavis Bryant. Cam hit Smitty on at least two just straight go routes. I can only dream about the touchdowns the Panthers could put up with a guy like our own MB to haul them in.

Thus mock draft has a lot of problems.

Watkins will go top 10 for sure, he is just that good. But Manziel 1 is just ridiculous. And they really have the UFC QB above bridge water? If you watched games on both BW has much more NFL potential. Pocket passer w great arm strengh. Am I wrong to think that Manning/Brady has been the AFC champ game for how many years? You need a smart strong passer to make it in the NFL. I really think TB will be a better NFL QB then Manziel. But what do I know....
