Wade Wilson "Impressed" by Johnny Manziel's Pro Day

[rynochop]

Is there an official height yet on him?

 

[Risen Star]

Laugh but Romo has probably improvised more huge plays under Garrett than we know.

He also probably improvised more bad ones too.

That matters now?

 

[Denim Chicken]

I do tend to think that Manziel has that leadership "it" factor....if he can keep his life together.
Kitna had it too, for that matter...except he was a non risk off the field.

That's actually a good pretty comparison as far demeanor--I wouldn't have thought of him.

 

[BigStar]

I bet they don't take a qb at all this draft.

Agree, I believe Weeden takes the place of any would be rookie as the "undeveloped talent" if one could consider him that.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

You don't rebuild with Romo.

 

[SilverStarCowboy]

Yeah size 12 shoes and 11 inch hands.

Official NFL scouting combine height for JF was 5'11 3/4" 207 lbs. I suppose that could reasonably rounded off to 6'.

I think if he somehow falls to #16 it'll be interesting. Otherwise I just don't see it happening.

After that pro day, in pads, he's gone in the top 5.

its the excitement after a good pro day...enthusiasm will settle down and people will go back to their doubts and film...the film doesn't lie....

with that said, its between him and brotles, neither of which is going top 10 IMO....but some team may trade down and pick them 10-20.

I think bridgewater may drop to top of the 2nd...

 

[CyberB0b]

Actually it's the reverse. RG3 has proven zilch at the NFL level.

Manziel will be even less accomplished.

 

[Risen Star]

Agree, I believe Weeden takes the place of any would be rookie as the "undeveloped talent" if one could consider him that.

We needed an edge rusher, a rock inside to swallow up blockers and a QB to groom for the future.

We've gotten Jeremy Mincey, Terrell McClain and Brandon Weeden.

All the rest is gravy.

Manziel will be even less accomplished.

His ability to move well in a short area of space will allow him some success.

I hear ya RS, just trying to think how a 70 year old drunk might

 

[CashMan]

What happens if he's not? Dez appears to be proving the doubters wrong. Why can't Johnny?

I think, what I am saying is, not so big of a risk at pick 24, pick 1, HUGE risk.

Wade Wilson is a clown. This is the kiss of death. RIP JFB

 

[Avery]

He won't be there at #16 - take it to the bank.

Right, his film was pretty terrible. He's the Mike Mamula of QBs.

thanks..i remember them listing him at 6' 1" on gamedays.

I think you need a fairly recent person to compare him too. To say, QBs who party, are in the HOF is really not a comparable. When did the play, the 80, 90? Pre salary cap, post? Different time periods.

(Sonny) Jurgensen himself admitted to a fondness for carousing when he said, "After I left Philadelphia, all the bartenders wore black arm bands."

"Filled with guys who liked to party" might be a little strong, but there are definitely a number of quarterbacks in the HOF who liked to party. Jurgensen, Layne, Namath, Favre.

We can't really compare to modern guys, since there are none in the Hall. But here's a recent revelation regarding Tom Brady, that paragon of quarterbacking virtue, and his fling with Tara Reid, in a Super Bowl year, no less.

I heard on TV that after his great pro day yesterday that the Texans had him come to Houston today to meet with team officials.
