    Link of website <--- For those who are curious. It even shows stats that compared Manziel to Bridgewater (whom some believe the Texans may select with their first pick in the upcoming draft)

    I don't care who the Texans pick btw. Hope the scouts do a great job and pick the best available.

    Mel Kiper just said on Sportscenter he believe the Texans will either take JFF or Clowney #1. His mock draft is coming up at noon.

    He doesn't believe that, that's what ESPN wants him to say. Like that time Dwight signed with the Rockets, hopped on a plane, and ESPN manufactured a story about him being 50/50 and on his way to LA. You're dealing with the same mother****ers that killed Bambi's mom.

    I think that's perfectly reasonable.

    I would be Happy with JFF... That would be exciting.. Pancakes was on 610 this morning and he stated hes 100% that Texans will draft a QB with NO # 1 pick.. Even saying he would eat the Chronicle Front Page if they dont.. .

    Manziel >>>>>>>>>> Bridgewater

    (based on youtube highlights)
    (coming from a guy who knows very little about football)

    Talent evaluators are saying Manziel and Bridgewater are about equal with Johnny having more upside.

    While I actually agree with him this time, let's not forget that Pancakes guaranteed 100% that the Texans were drafting Vince Young.

    Why one or the other? I think both can be very special players. My preference is Bridge over Manziel, but I'll take either one. I'd be disappointed if the Texans don't take a QB, in the first, but Clowney or Barr would not have me jumping in front of a bus. For what it's worth (nothing), I don't think Manziel or Bridge will be there at number four when Cleveland picks. I hope Bortles likes snow! :)

    Manziel parties too much. His head is not in the game. Read about Brady, Manning. They live football. I don't see Manziel as that guy. He likely puts in his work, obviously has a strong will to win, but has equally a fondness of partying and mingling with celebrities.

    Bridgewater seems more like Brady, Manning, mentality-wise.

    lol at the new "partying metric".

    If Manziel is a 6 on the "partying metric", where does Bridgewater rate? Would you say that Manziel parties 25% more than Bridgewater? Tell me more

    Yeah, because Tom Brady definitely has no celebrity or non-football interests... :rolleyes:

    He should be holding a football with a strawberry daiquiri in it, not a damn melon. No wonder he hasn't won a Super Bowl in so long.[​IMG]

    The entire partying angle as a reason not to draft someone is ridiculous ... Which of you wouldn't be living it up if you became a world wide celebrity, practically over night at 19 years old

    Bridgewater is in freaking Louisville. That's why you never hear of him doing nothing because it's not 5h!t to do there... Lol.

    Let's be real though, this is Pancakes we're talking about. He's just hungry and wants to see how much more BS he can make his stories by eating it.

    It's going to be Manziel. Texans better hope Johnny Football can stay healthy.
