    Perfect response

    The reason why Brett Favre was Brett Favre was because of his bazooka of an arm

    Besides that we would have never heard of him except for being a pick machine

    His arm allowed him to make throws that not a lot of other qbs could get away with

    He says there are too many distractions in Houston and a city like Oakland would be a better fit. What idiocy. The whole "likes to party" narrative is bizarre. I highly doubt Manziel "partied" more than any other college football star. If you pass on Manziel, it's because you don't think he has the tools or body to justify burning a top pick on him, not because you're worried about his tail chasing.

    Pros

    Incredibly high ceiling
    Star Power
    Fills a huge need
    Elusive and Smart

    Cons

    Higher risk than Bridgewater (debatable)
    Would be passing on Clowney if the Texans draft him

    Pros

    Incredibly high ceiling, How does Manziel have a high ceiling???? An incredibly high ceiling requires a powerful arm
    Star Power
    Fills a huge need
    Elusive and Smart

    Cons

    Higher risk than Bridgewater (debatable) Not really debatable considering pretty much even the Bridgewater naysayers in the scouting industry say Bridgewater is the safest qb in the draft.

    If the Texans pass on Johnny and he turns out to be a Superstar, they will be hearing about it until the end of time.

    McCarron is a bozo with an ugly tattoo. Johnny flies a star ship with The Highwaymen.
