Kiper declares Manziel the best QB in the Draft

From the Twitter of Falcons reporter D Orlando Ledbetters (one of the best names in sports journalism today)...

 

ESPN draft analyst Mel Kiper said Johnny Manziel is the consensus best QB in the draft.

 

I think Bridgewater and others are better, but I'm not exactly a Manziel fan.

 I would take Bridgewater over Manziel because I believe he has more upside as an NFL quarterback..  I he feel enters the upcoming NFL Draft  the consensus top signal-caller and a projected top-five pick. If Bridgewater had been in the 2013 NFL Draft, he probably would have been the first quarterback selected and could have gone at the top of the first round.

I agree with you on Bridgewater. He's a much more polished player. I think Manziel will be decent enough in the long run, but he's going to need more time to develop into an NFL quarterback. I see a lot of RG3 in manziel.

No issues with Bridgewater's skills. I think he's the best QB in the draft on that front.  My worry with him is his frame.  A sub 200 guy playing in the NFL?  He definitely should bulk up.

 

Manziel?  I honestly believe he's gonna be a massive bust.

Bridgewater will get bigger with a couple years of NFL weight training.

Manziel could be a huge bust. I'm a big believer that you can do anything if you're willing to put in the work. He definitely is going to take a while to develop into a sound NFL quarterback, but whether he comes around or busts is going to depend on his work ethic and if he's willing to be coached up.

Could be, but when I look at him I see the next Ryan Leaf (though a shorter version).

    • I tend to look at all of these guys and wonder how committed they are to doing special teams? It's a big deal when you're fighting for roster spots. And we need massive refreshes to all phases of the special teams game. And the idea that four or five of these players could see rotational use outside of special teams would be a win. This team has accumulated quite a bit of dead wood over the last five years and its time to take an axe to some of it. These new fellows have a shot to benefit from that if they can really push. That being said, wow that receivers room is crowded right now. I'm not sure if I was a vet player with more than 2 years experience other than Adam Thielen if I'd be too sure of my future here. Tet is guaranteed a spot, Coker earned his for sure and they aren't done with XL developing yet. That's only two to three spots left for the entire room. It's going to be very competitive and better for Bryce's future, too. Safety and linebacker are the opportunity spots here this season. There's room for the right guy and we may see a starter eventually from one of these UDFAs, either by merit or injury.   
    • Aho and Jarvis just gripping it too tight right now. Relax, play their 200 ft game and the shots will start to find the net. Freddie has been excellent and welcome back Mista Svechnikov. Burns.....well, thank goodness for Slavin.
    • Supposedly he plans on staying in college for all 4 years.
