Moving on from Manziel?


Mr. Scot

Rotoworld, citing Chris Mortensen and Peter King...

Just one year after taking Manziel with the No. 22 overall pick, the Browns appear to be throwing in the towel. "When they were putting together half of a new offensive staff, Manziel’s name barely even came up in conversation," Mort said. SI's Peter King chimed in Monday, saying Mort's take is 100 percent accurate and that Josh McCown in the "dominant talking point" in the organization. Furthermore, it's been confirmed the Browns were (and may still be) trying to trade for Sam Bradford. Manziel is coming out of rehab and entering a steep climb on the depth chart.

While I'm clearly not at all a fan of Manziel, I still have to question moving on from any young quarterback this quickly.

Of course, this is the Browns we're talking about.

Makes sense.

He is a fringe roster player at best and spent his rookie year partying like he was in college. They don't need to cut the guy, but accepting that you made a gigantic mistake and moving forward is a good idea. If he miraculously shows out in camp then good for all parties involved.

send him to the:

Eagles - Kelly recruited him hard to Oregon

Broncos - train a few years under The Forehead and then unleash Manziel-mania

Saints - run the option with Ingram and Spiller

Titans - he could become Johnny Nashville

Cowboys - they probably still love him in Texas. Jerry Jones wanted to draft him

Bills - because he and Rex together would be hilarous

Bucs - Famous Jameis and Johnny Football together would be even more hilarous

    • PJ's completion % was 63% when starting games in Carolina.  Which I believe is better than Bryce when starting.  And again, 4-3 as the starter here and the LONE QB Carolina has been able to actually win with in the Tepper era.  If you ask a gambling gunslinger to come into blowouts.....they are going to go down in a blaze of glory.  Which he would do.  Yeah, he isn't good.  And gunslingers are supposed to have rockier stats than checkdown QBs.   So....why does PJ Walker have a better comp % as a starter than Bryce Young.  And for every knock you want to make about PJ, you can find something or a skillset that PJ does better than Bryce.   I didn't say PJ had good field vision.  He doesn't.  Tell me about Bryce after he comes off the first read lol.  Let me repeat, PJ Walker is not a good QB.  He is NFL depth and an in house arm.  Bryce Young doesn't belong in a convo w/ Jake and Cam.  He belongs closer in a convo with the backup caliber QBs Carolina was forced into playing.  Which isn't just PJ Walker.  But Kyle Allen.  Moore.  Guys like that.   
    • Oh I see what you meant by memory. I will trust my memory, I have looked a a lot of those ball charts for Bryce and they trend a general pattern. They thing that has changed that I have noticed more recently is the reduction in the bunching of behind or at  the LOS passes over to his right.  Aside from the quantity of throws recently since the running game has become a more dominant factor. 
    • Yes but you basically said you are going from a quick skim of those charts without doing the same for Bryce and/or Andy. So you are going memory vs. snapshots. That's not going to be a very comprehensive analysis.
