    Yup. Don't care enough about the Texans or the NFL to watch a mediocre rebuild while Andre Johnson slowly withers away into nothing.

    Johnny Manziel please.

    The QB's we has are turrible.

    Johnny will be at minimum, better than Cam.

    I agree, I need something to get excited about after the rockets crashed and burned.

    If Clowney is supposed to be the greatest defensive player to come along in the last 10 years, why aren't teams lining up to trade for the 1st pick?

    We really don't know who has offered what.
    Its considered to be a deep draft by the so called experts so 2nd and 3rd rounders may be considered more valuable than in most years.
    And he's not a QB.

    Not going to lie, this Rockets to Texans transition will be much smoother this year.

    The Texans got the number one pick! I have already moved on from last night's game.

    That's probably the greatest indictment of Manziel, you never want to go with the Skip Bayless pick for QB.

    After listening to all what Todd Mcshay said, Why is he even a first-round prospect ? lol

    Terrible Mechanics
    Need to stay in the pocket to win
    Needs to change his work habit
    Needs to be more patient in the pocket
    Needs to learn how to go throw progression
    Needs to learn how to set protection


    Phenomenal athletic and a winner. Good accuracy even with flawed mechanics are some of the reasons why he is ranked so high?


    Not hating on Manziel or anything, but why isn't he sliding with these major concerns. While in some boards like TB, AJ McCaarron are dropping in rounds.

    I think whoever drafts him texans or someone else is taking a HUGE gamble in first round. He has potential, but he still has lot to learn.

    In college btw, with a stacked o-line and a good WR core. Same offense that made case Keenum look good. Still i like him as an entertaining player to watch, but there is no way in hell i'm gonna risk picking him up if i can get just one of the blue chip prospects. I don't believe it takes one guy to change a football team around. Unless, your talking about luck, manning and them. Those are once in every 20 years guys and pocket passers.

    Johnny has an elite arm, elite mobility, and plays his best all in the biggest games.

    I think at worse, he is better than Cam Newton of today.

    Guy is electric. I think hoth him and Bridgewater will be good QB's in the league.
