First QB to go in the draft?

I think Manziel will go first. Nothing will bring more excitement to Houston than good ol' Johnny Football. I think Bridgewater is decent, but I'm going to pull out the good ol' conferences argument. SEC > American. Add in the fact that Manziel is the better dual-threat, Houston will take him first. 

 

I think Hundley is solid as well. Carr, not too sure. He was awful against USC, which was probably the first "real" defense he played against all season.

I would hate to be picking a QB this year in the draft.

 

Take Manziel for instance, The TTBOW had set the NCAA record for yds at 4100 only to have it broken by Cam at 4300.  Then here comes Manziel and has a 4800 yd season followed by a 5100 yd season.  He has elusiveness, but is small, has a decent passing game and has nice touch and vision.  He does not necessarily have a rocket arm, but the most worrisome thing about him is between his ears.  He might grow up or he might flame out.  I don't like his maturity, of course I am 53 and don't like any players maturity for the most part, joking.

 

He is surely a showboat kind of guy and would just worry me if I had to coach him.  I think Hundley is a year away, but might be better than any of them long term.  If he stays in school, I think he is number one pick next season barring injury.  But like I said, I would hate to be in need of a qb this season.  I hope whomever the Browns signs, sucks.  Have little respect for their brass after their treatment of Chud, I mean, who do they think they are, Jerry Jones?

      1st period was a Masterclass on defense by both teams. About time for the Canes let’s keep it up.

      Yes, it tells me they’ve improved significantly from sitting at what, 30-31st in the league on the PP to 11th now.

      I wanted someone to hire him so we got the picks, but I'm also not upset that he'll now be back. I genuinely don't understand why so many fans on here dislike him so much.  No, he's not perfect and made some mistakes this year, especially at the end of the playoff game and going so soft in coverage on the final drive. But considering this place torched him all offseason for us having the "worst defense in NFL history" last year.  Said in the whole pre-draft process how we had to go defense in round 1 because of it and then complained the rest of the offseason that we didn't do enough to improve the defensive roster. How do people say all that about the defense and then complain when he turned that same unit into a pretty respectable defense this year.  They were really the only reason we were in a lot of games for most of the season, as the middle part of the season they really stepped up and were playing like one of the better defenses in the league. I don't see any reason we can't improve even more next year if we spend another offseason focusing on adding pieces on that side of the ball, which we should be able to do with our draft picks and cap space. We had the historically worst defense ever last year and people are upset because we weren't the 85 Bears this year, make it make sense.
