    There's virtually no shot that we draft Manziel.

    It'll be Clowney or Teddy like it has always been.

    Manziel didn't do anything at A&M's pro day, he wants to have his own pro day later on.

    No way Teddy goes #1 after this pro day.

    No idea what the Texans are gonna do, but no Texan Teddy unless we trade back.

    Bridgewater is still my favorite player in this draft, but... I'm starting to lean more and more towards drafting Clowney and scooping up the best quarterback available in the second or third. If Bridgewater, Bortles or Carr don't fall to the second, I'd be really intrigued by either Garoppolo or Mettenberger. Both seem like they can develop into solid pros.

    How is that relevant to my post? He is having a pro day non the less.

    If he had a bad one like Teddy are people going to brush that off to?

    And I'm fine with that. I'm trusting that Bob will make the right decision. Idk why but I just am.

    You're fine with any pick as long as it isn't Manziel lol.

    Amen. That's why we hired a QB guru.

    I don't think NFL teams really give a rip about pro day workouts for QBs beyond 40 time, foot/arm mechanics, height, and weight.

    Beyond that, the two biggest things NFL teams care about are game tape and interviews/background checks.

    A lot of football people didn't draft a lot of great QBs number one. Teddy will play on Sundays & if he plays great the Texans will look bad once again. Hopefully they nail this pick regardless.

    His style and height concern me, but if he's the Texans' guy, I'm rollin with it.

    Okay that's something. Not making excuses for him. Just for me it seems a little peculiar to have such a poor showing without something to his bad day.

    lol, pro days and combines don't hold much weight for first round talent. The film is there, and individual visits are to come. Today definitely did not help Teddy, but to say it takes him out of consideration for 1.1 is ridiculous.

    In other words, Bridgewater suffers from Battlefight.
