    Well it doesn't, it's just embarrassing really. Just like I said before, it's like Vince Young saying that he was an elite QB and that he was going to be in the HOF. It's just embarrassing hubris.

    Fact of the matter:

    We need Clowney on his p's and q's against Bridgewater and the Jags

    So he's nearly undraftable because the producer of NFL Films thinks it? That's some credibility there, over all the many people in actual NFL draft rooms that seem to think overwise. Nevermind, of course, that the guy didn't even say he was undraftable. He said he's undraftable if you only watched the worst 2 games of his career. :rolleyes::rolleyes:

    The game against LSU will be the blueprint on how to play him in the NFL...

    And NFL defenses are much much faster

    He's almost undraftable because he doesn't have an NFL skillset but he's a walking media circus. If he wasn't, then he might be a guy you'd want to draft in the later rounds with the hope of keeping him on the bench for 2 or 3 years trying to turn him into an NFL QB. You can't do that with him because of the hype, so it makes him almost undraftable

    Well he's not embarrassed yet, that comes later. It might be draft day when hubris meets nemesis, it might be day one of preseason, it might be day one of the regular season but it's inevitable. Vince Young wasn't smart enough to be embarrassed when he was calling himself an elite QB saying that he would be making the HOF, but I bet he's embarrassed about it now. JFF will be the same.

    This was on ESPN earlier, and it wasn't even given much thought by the eager-to-over-hype-everything national media.

    It's probably embarrassing Bobby because Johnny's comments apparently straight kicked him off. You can tell when he doesn't like a player because he's going off like this in the Jonathan Martin thread also... A thread in which he may have to eat his words in as well....

    Manziel is a talentless joke and Martin is a headcase who screwed over his team....pick better people to defend.

    I won't go so far to say his talentless, he certainly isn't first round talent

    At the NFL level, he's talentless. In college, he was awesome though.

    By you using the words "TALENTLESS JOKE" when referring to Johnny points exactly to what I'm referring to... It shows that "HATE" is the #1 priority on your agenda when It comes to Johnny. Even people who think Johnny won't be any good don't use the words "TALENTLESS JOKE"...

    I'm sure Florida's defenses were also the blueprint on how to play Peyton Manning. You do realize every NFL QB had bad games in college, right?

    So he's almost undraftable, but yet he's almost certain to be drafted in the first round. Fascinating.

    I doubt Vince Young is embarassed - it was his goal; he failed - so be it. If you're embarassed to aim high and try to be great, you're probably not well suited for the NFL. If you're embarassed to proclaim goals and failing, you're probably not well suited for any high-end profession.

    Because talking **** doesn't make you a bad player.
    People are just butthurt because Manziel isn't Mr. Humble.

    I'm tired of humble people, its a tired stereotype.
    Manziel is exciting, and he has the fire.

    Its very Kobe-esque. Now if he gets his focus right he could be very good. If not, then whatever. There isn't that much talent in this draft anyway and I don't think a single QB is a the difference between the garbage Texans and the superbowl talent we expected them to be.
